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 typically fits inside the Hermès Herbag Cabas Tote? A: With approximate measurements of 44 x 22 x 16 cm, it is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, sunglasses, a cosmetic pouch, notebook and a small water bottle. Many tablets and some slim 13-inch laptops may fit horizontally, but we recommend comparing your device to the exact measurements on this page before purchasing.
Q: Is this bag suitable for shoulder carry? A: The dual flat leather handles have an approximate drop of 22 cm. Most people should be able to carry it by hand, on the arm, or over the shoulder, although the fit on the shoulder can vary depending on your frame and what you are wearing.
Q: What materials is this bag made from? A: This piece features off-white canvas with brown leather trim, silver-tone hardware and a tonal canvas lining. The combination gives the bag a lighter, more casual feel than a fully leather style while still keeping the classic Hermès look.
Q: Does this bag have a zip or other closure? A: This specific bag has an open top. That makes it easy to access throughout the day, though some buyers like to add a slim pouch or organiser inside for extra security and organisation.
Q: Does this item come with a shoulder strap or extra parts? A: No strap is listed in the product information for this item. It is designed around its dual top handles, and the product information for this piece includes a dust bag only.
Q: Are Herbag Cabas bags interchangeable or modular? A: Some vintage Herbag Cabas versions are known for a modular construction, and certain examples were originally sold with an interchangeable canvas body. For this item, only one bag body is described in the product information, so you should assume that no additional body is included unless stated otherwise.
Q: Is the Herbag Cabas a discontinued Hermès model? A: Yes, the Herbag line has changed over time, and the Cabas tote is generally regarded as an older, discontinued version. That is why this piece is presented as a vintage Hermès bag rather than a current boutique model.
Q: How should I care for the light canvas and leather trim? A: Light canvas benefits from gentle handling. Use a soft dry cloth for regular dusting, avoid overfilling, colour transfer, rain and rough surfaces, and keep the leather away from oils or harsh cleaners. For more significant cleaning or repairs, it is safest to consult Hermès or a trusted luxury bag specialist.
Q: What should I know about the condition and authenticity of this piece? A: This bag is described as being in Very Good condition, with very light traces of use to the exterior and interior, plus shiny hardware with very light scratches. The serial number is listed as illegible, so authentication should be based on the full set of details, including materials, construction, stamps and hardware. Every item sold by A Retro Tale is vetted for authenticity.
