Elevate your commute and client meetings with this vintage Hermès 15-inch laptop case in black Box calf leather. Sleek and understated, it brings boardroom polish to back-to-office days and business trips, with a zip-around closure and an internal slip pocket to keep essentials neatly to hand.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size laptops will this case fit? A: The external measurements are approximately 36 × 25 × 2 cm. Most 15-inch laptops and ultra‑slim devices of similar footprint should fit; for example, a 15-inch MacBook Air (around 34.0 × 23.8 × 1.15 cm) fits comfortably. Some slim 16-inch laptops (about 35.6 × 24.8 × 1.7 cm) may fit snugly. Please measure your device and compare to the measurements above, allowing a little margin for the leather and zip.
Q: Is the case padded for impact protection? A: This Hermès case is crafted in structured Box calf leather with a leather lining and a zip‑around closure. It offers elegant scratch protection and organisation rather than heavy shock absorption. If you require drop or impact protection, we recommend using a slim neoprene sleeve for your laptop inside the case.
Q: Will A4 documents fit inside? A: Yes. A4 paper (21 × 29.7 cm) and most folders easily fit within the 36 × 25 cm footprint. The internal slip pocket is ideal for keeping papers separate from your device.
Q: What is Box calf leather and how does it age? A: Box calf is a classic Hermès smooth calf leather with a refined, glossy finish and structured feel. Over time it develops a beautiful patina, with fine surface marks mellowing into the sheen. This vintage character is part of its appeal.
Q: How should I care for Box calf leather? A: Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use. Avoid water, oils, and abrasives; if the leather gets lightly wet, dab dry and allow it to air naturally away from heat. Store the case loosely filled to maintain shape, in a breathable dust bag, and out of direct sunlight. For deep cleaning or restoration, we recommend Hermès after‑sales service (“spa”).
Q: What is the lining and internal layout? A: The interior is black leather with one slip pocket, useful for documents, a notebook, or slim accessories such as a cable.
Q: What type of hardware is used and how do I care for it? A: The hardware is silver‑toned. Wipe it occasionally with a soft cloth to remove fingerprints and avoid metal polishes or abrasive cloths that can scratch the finish. Keep the zip fastened when stored to help the case hold its shape.
Q: Does this item include any accessories? A: This listing is for the laptop case only and is sold with no accessories. Anything included is specified under the Accessories section; if an item isn’t listed there, it is not included.
Q: How is authenticity verified? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps/blind stamps, and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details on request.
Q: Where was this case made and what is the stamp? A: The country of origin label indicates France. Hermès uses discreet blind stamps rather than printed serial numbers; placement and legibility can vary with age and use. On this vintage piece the stamp is illegible, which is not uncommon for well‑used items.
