Design and Construction

The textured Todoo Feutre wool contrasts beautifully with supple Craie Togo leather.

Rolled handles provide comfort and balance when carried by hand.
Inside, the unlined interior reveals the natural integrity of the materials.
A small mark is present on the front flap, as shown in images.
Heritage and Exclusivity
The Haut à Courroies, meaning “high belts,” dates back to the late 1800s.
Hermès originally designed it to carry riding equipment for cavalry officers.
Over time, the HAC inspired the Birkin while preserving its taller, more discreet silhouette.
Because production remains limited, the HAC 40 continues to attract collectors and connoisseurs.
Furthermore, the Gris Clair and Craie pairing gives this edition a modern yet timeless character.
Presentation and Condition
This Hermès HAC 40 bag comes complete with lock, keys, clochette, and sleeper.
It is presented in New or Never Worn condition.
