Q: What size is this Hermès Herbag 39 and what fits inside? A: This piece measures approximately 37 x 34 x 13 cm. It is a roomy everyday size that can hold essentials such as a wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, a notebook and small extras. It can also suit documents and, depending on the shape of the device and sleeve, may fit a slim 13-inch laptop. Please compare the measurements with a bag you already use for the best idea of fit.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. It has a single top handle as well as a flat shoulder strap. The handle drop is approximately 5 cm and the strap drop is approximately 45 cm, so it offers a practical shoulder carry as well as a handheld option.
Q: Is the Herbag 39 a good choice for work or daily use? A: Yes, the 39 size is generally favoured by buyers who want a larger, practical Herbag for commuting, day-to-day use or light travel. Its canvas-and-leather construction gives it a more relaxed feel than a fully leather bag, while still keeping the signature Hermès look.

Q: Is this the original Herbag or the later Herbag Zip? A: This bag carries a Square E stamp from 2001, which places it in the earlier vintage Herbag period rather than the later Herbag Zip update. Buyers often ask this because the newer Zip versions introduced additional details such as a rear zip pocket and removable pouch.
Q: Does the Herbag 39 have an interchangeable body? A: Yes. One of the most recognisable features of the Herbag line is its detachable leather top with a canvas body that can be swapped. This item also comes with a spare canvas, as noted in the product information.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. It has a single top handle as well as a flat shoulder strap. The handle drop is approximately 5 cm and the strap drop is approximately 45 cm, so it offers a practical shoulder carry as well as a handheld option.
Q: Is the Herbag 39 a good choice for work or daily use? A: Yes, the 39 size is generally favoured by buyers who want a larger, practical Herbag for commuting, day-to-day use or light travel. Its canvas-and-leather construction gives it a more relaxed feel than a fully leather bag, while still keeping the signature Hermès look.
Q: What is included with this item? A: The product information lists the following inclusions: box, dust bag, spare canvas, padlock, keys and clochette. If you like knowing exactly what comes with a vintage bag, this piece is well supplied.
Q: What does the Square E stamp mean? A: Square E is the Hermès date stamp for 2001. For vintage Hermès pieces, this is one of the most commonly asked questions because the stamp helps place the bag within the brand’s production timeline.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The exterior shows light traces of use, the interior is also in Very Good condition with light wear, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: How should I care for a vintage canvas-and-leather Herbag? A: Store it in its dust bag, lightly filled to help maintain shape, and keep it away from prolonged direct sunlight, moisture and heat. Clean the canvas gently with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth, and avoid overloading the bag so the structure and leather trim stay in the best possible condition.
Q: How do you authenticate this Hermès bag? A: A Retro Tale carefully vets its luxury items for authenticity using expert review of details such as materials, construction, hardware and stamps. The Square E blind stamp and overall construction are part of the kind of details collectors commonly check on vintage Hermès pieces.
