Q: What fits inside the Hermès Gao Hobo Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 36 x 23 x 7 cm, this bag is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and a compact tablet or notebook. As with any soft hobo style, capacity depends on how you organise the contents, so please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Gao is designed as a shoulder bag with a single strap, and this piece has an approximate strap drop of 30 cm. That generally allows for easy shoulder carry with a relaxed, slouchy silhouette.
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: Can this bag be worn comfortably on the shoulder? A: Yes. The Gao is designed as a shoulder bag with a single strap, and this piece has an approximate strap drop of 30 cm. That generally allows for easy shoulder carry with a relaxed, slouchy silhouette.
Q: What is Clemence leather like? A: Clemence is a soft, grained Hermès leather known for its supple feel and more casual drape. It has a generous natural grain and tends to develop a softer, more relaxed shape over time, which suits the Gao’s hobo design especially well.
Q: Does Clemence leather slouch over time? A: It can. Clemence is appreciated for its softness, so some natural slouch and shape relaxation are normal with use. Many collectors actually like this lived-in look, but if you prefer to preserve the shape, avoid overfilling the bag and store it lightly stuffed when not in use.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Keep it away from prolonged sunlight, heat, rain and rough surfaces. Clean gently with a soft, dry cloth and store it in a dust bag with light stuffing to help maintain its shape. As with most vintage leather bags, it is best not to over-condition or use harsh cleaning products.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This piece is listed in very good overall condition. The exterior shows light rubbing on the edges, the interior is in good condition with some discolouration and a slight vintage smell, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What accessories are included? A: According to the product information, this bag comes with a box and dust bag. If an item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: What are the interior details of this bag? A: This bag features a beige chevron canvas lining and a top zip closure. The zipped top helps keep everyday essentials secure while maintaining the bag’s sleek, understated profile.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this bag is France, which is consistent with Hermès leather goods craftsmanship.
