Q: What size is this Hermès Evelyne GM bag, and what typically fits inside? A: This GM size measures approximately 33 x 29.5 x 8.5 cm. It is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses case, cosmetics pouch, a small water bottle, and a tablet or large e-reader. It may also suit slim documents or some compact laptops, but it is always best to compare your own item’s dimensions with the measurements listed on this page.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: The Evelyne is loved for its hands-free, easy-to-carry design. This listing includes a detachable shoulder strap with a listed strap measurement of 47.5 cm. Most buyers will find it comfortable on the shoulder, and whether it sits perfectly crossbody will depend on your height and preferred drop.

Most buyers will find it comfortable on the shoulder, and whether it sits perfectly crossbody will depend on your height and preferred drop.
Q: What does the perforated H mean, and should it face inwards or outwards? A: The perforated H is a signature Evelyne detail tied to the bag’s equestrian roots. Hermès describes the Evelyne as originally designed to carry horse-grooming equipment, and collectors traditionally note that the H was worn facing the body. Today, both ways are commonly worn, so it mostly comes down to personal preference.
Q: Is the interior lined, and how does it close? A: This bag has an unlined interior and a snap button closure. That gives it a lightweight, relaxed feel and easy access, but it is more open than a zip-top style. Many owners like to use pouches inside to help keep smaller belongings organised.
Q: What does the Square A stamp mean? A: Square A is the Hermès blind stamp for 1997, so this is a true vintage piece. On Hermès bags, letters inside a square were used during the 1997 to 2014 period, with A marking the first year of that series.
Q: How should I care for toile canvas and Clemence leather? A: For best long-term care, avoid overloading the bag and keep it away from prolonged sunlight, heat, perfume, ink, oils, and dark fabrics that may transfer colour. If the leather gets wet, gently blot it straight away with a soft lint-free cloth. Because this is a light toile canvas and vintage leather combination, professional cleaning is the safest option for deeper stains or restoration work.
Q: What condition should I expect from this vintage bag? A: This piece is listed in good vintage condition. The canvas has visible stains, the leather trim shows signs of scuffing, and there are scratches on the leather logo. Inside, there are light traces of use with some smaller stains and marks, while the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing includes a dust bag and a detachable shoulder strap. Everything included with the purchase is shown in the product information on this page, so if you would like to confirm any extra details before buying, it is worth checking with customer service.
