HermèsEpsom Evelyne 29 Bag

Q: What are the measurements of this Hermès Evelyne 29?
A: This particular bag measures 25 cm wide × 28 cm high × 5 cm deep. Use these item-specific measurements when assessing its size, rather than relying on the model name or dimensions quoted for other Evelyne 29 bags.

Q: What can I fit inside this bag?
A: Based on its listed dimensions, it should accommodate everyday essentials such as a mobile phone, compact wallet, keys and a small pouch. Its slim 5 cm depth makes bulky items less practical. Compare your essentials with the measurements and avoid overfilling the bag.

Q: What material and colour is this Evelyne?
A: This bag is listed as black Epsom leather. Epsom is an embossed calfskin with a fine, cross-hatched texture, valued for its light weight, shape retention and resistance to everyday scratches. It is not scratch-proof and still requires careful handling.

Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody?
A: The Evelyne is a shoulder and crossbody style, and this item is categorised as a crossbody bag. Its listed strap measurement is 40 cm. How it sits will depend on your height and build; strap adjustability is not specified for this particular piece.

Q: What condition is this pre-owned bag in?
A: It is graded Very Good Condition. The exterior has signs of wear, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review the product photographs alongside these condition details.

Q: What does the Square C stamp mean?
A: The listed Square C date stamp indicates 1999, making this a vintage piece. Its country of origin is France. A date stamp identifies the production year but does not, on its own, establish authenticity.

Q: Does this bag come with a dust bag or box?
A: A dust bag is included according to the product information. A box or authenticity card is not listed as included; please refer to the product information for the supplied items.

Q: Why does the Evelyne have a perforated H, and which way should it face?
A: The signature perforated H originates from the Evelyne’s equestrian purpose: the holes helped ventilate horse-grooming equipment. Traditionally, the H-facing side was worn towards the body, although you can choose the orientation that suits your style.

Q: How should I care for and store this vintage Evelyne?
A: Protect it from rain, prolonged direct sunlight, heat, oils, perfume and alcohol-based products. If it gets wet, gently blot it with a soft, lint-free cloth. Store it in its dust bag in a dry, temperate place away from light, lightly filled with tissue paper to support its shape. Avoid commercial leather treatments and seek advice from Hermès for cleaning or repairs.
