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 are the key features and dimensions of the Herline MM? A: This vintage Hermès tote is crafted in durable canvas with the signature web-stripe handles, silver-tone hardware, six external slip pockets, a tonal canvas interior with one internal zip pocket, and a secure zip top with additional snap closures. Approximate measurements are 40 × 30 × 10 cm with a 10 cm handle drop.
Q: Will it fit my laptop and daily essentials? A: Yes—thanks to its 40 cm width and 30 cm height, it comfortably fits A4 documents, a tablet or most 13–15 inch laptops in a slim sleeve, plus daily essentials like a wallet, phone, small pouch and a water bottle. Capacity varies by device and case, so please compare your items to the measurements provided.
Q: Does this model come with a shoulder strap or D-rings? A: No. The Herline MM is designed for hand carry or the crook of the arm via its dual flat handles and does not include a shoulder strap or strap attachments.
Q: How secure is the opening? A: The bag closes with a top zip for primary security, complemented by additional snap buttons at the top edge to keep the silhouette neat and contents stable while on the move.
Q: Is the Herline MM still produced by Hermès? A: The Herline (often called Fourre-Tout) totes were primarily produced in the late 1990s–2000s and are now found on the pre-owned market rather than in the current Hermès retail assortment.
Q: How should I care for the canvas? A: Wipe gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and mild soap if needed, then air dry away from heat. Avoid harsh chemicals, alcohol-based wipes, or machine washing. To store, keep it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity, and be mindful of potential colour transfer from dark denim or freshly dyed fabrics.
Q: Is the bag water-resistant? A: The canvas offers light resistance to everyday splashes but is not waterproof. Avoid heavy rain; if it gets wet, blot with a soft cloth and let it air dry naturally. A protective rain cover or liner can help in poor weather.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section on this page. If an item such as a dust bag or lock is not listed there, it is not included—feel free to contact us if you need clarification.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag, and does Hermès issue authenticity cards? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, and stamps. Hermès does not issue authenticity cards; genuine pieces may have a blind/date stamp and Hermès heat stamps, but no official card.
