History of Hermès Herbag
The Herbag made its debut in the late ’80s or early ’90s, although the precise “date of birth” remains somewhat of an unknown.
Having spent some time in the spotlight, the Herbag was discontinued in the mid-2000s. But just when we thought it was gone for good, Hermès brought it back in 2009 with a fresh update called the Herbag Zip.
Despite its name, the Herbag isn’t just for women. With larger sizes, it’s a versatile choice that works for both men and women.
Unique Design of Hermès Herbag
The Hermès Herbag has an elegant trapezoid shape like the Kelly Bag. It also comes with a short top handle and a longer shoulder strap.
The top flap is secured with leather sangles and a ‘Clou de Selle’ fastening, giving it that signature Hermès look.
On the back, there is a zipped pocket and inside, you can find a detachable pouch.
What makes the Herbag truly special is how customizable it is. You can mix and match the tops and bodies and even turn the bag inside out to switch up the look. If you like sharper, more structured edges, simply remove the top and flip the body.
Having all these different options, the Herbag is a very special and versatile bag.
Hermès Herbag Sizes
The Herbag is available in five different sizes. There is a size for everybody.
Let’s start with the Herbag Mini, the smallest and the latest addition to the Herbag family. Suitable for an outing when you only need to bring the basics with you.
Next up, we have the Herbag 31. It is a perfect size for running errands or everyday use.
If you need something larger for work, pick Herbag 39. It can comfortably hold a laptop and a notebook.
For travelers, there are two larger sizes of the Herbag. The Herbag Zip Cabine 50 is ideal for air travel as a carry-on. In the meantime, the Herbag 52 is an ideal companion for overnight escapes or weekend trips.

Material of Hermes Herbag
The Herbag has a main body made from Officier canvas, which is a heavy, structured cotton. It’s woven from thin threads giving it a firm yet flexible feel that holds its shape well over time.
To balance out the sturdy canvas, the top flap and straps are made from Vache Hunter leather, a tough, durable cowhide.
The Herbag also features Hermès’ signature Clou de Selle closure. This gives the bag that classy, timeless finish.
Recently, Hermès has introduced a version with coated Berline canvas. This canvas is incredibly durable and waterproof. The glossy finish not only makes it tougher but also gives the bag a more refined, polished look.
Hermes Herbag Special Editions
One of the best things about shopping for a Herbag is the wide range of colors you can choose from.
Whether you’re into tonal bags, where the top and body match or you want to make a statement with bicolor, tricolor, or even quadricolour versions there’s something for every style.
On top of the classic solid color options, Hermès also releases limited edition Herbags with fun and unique designs. Some of these include special pieces like the Pegase Pop Herbag Zip and the H Vibration Herbag Zip.
These exclusive designs tend to sell out fast, so if you spot one, you’ll need to act quickly before they’re gone!
Hermes Herbag Price
In 2024, the Herbag 31 was priced at $3,050, and the Herbag 39 was $3,300 at Hermès boutiques. The Herbag Mini was a bit cheaper at $2,800.
But, the Herbag did see a price hike in 2025. For example, the Herbag Zip Cabine jumped from $4,150 to $4,675, which is a 12.7% increase.
The Herbag is a little more affordable than other Hermès bags because it’s only partially made of leather, unlike all-leather bags.
Still, some people feel like spending thousands on a canvas bag doesn’t make a ton of sense and that’s when replica bags start to look tempting.
