Search for the Hermes Haut a Courroie (HAC)

40 cm Etoupe HAC in Matte Croco

40 cm Hermes Rouge HAC in Shiny Croco

40cm Potiron HAC in Ostrich

I prefer the Sac de Voyage Hermes Haut a Courroie (HAC) 40cm over the Hermes Birkin 40cm. I think this size of this bag is more suited for my built. I only have one HAC in Thalassa Blue and I have been wanting to buy another one. When I went to the Hermes Flagship Store in Fauborg St. Honore this afternoon, I felt an adrenalin rush  when I spotted these three Hermes HAC 40 cm in the display window. Unfortunately, according to the sales associate, these pieces are not for sale. She does even know their selling prices. I was even more disappointed when she told me that Hermes stopped producing the HAC since last year. Sigh!

  6. it's just the smaller sizes. HAC 40 and up are still in production. I have the bleu de prusse (2009 color) and my friend has bleu de malte (2010 color). both in 40 cm.

    also, a HAC 50 appeared on the runway of the Fall-Winter 2011-2012 Hermès Men's.

  8. I have a Sac de Voyage Hermes Haut a Courroie (HAC) 50, which I got as a weddinggift in 1986 which I would like to sell! I haven't used it in years and if I get a good price would part with the bag! I took it to the Hermes shop in Munich last week, and they were stunned and said that it wasn't produced anymore. I'll gladly post details and pictures if I get an advice where to sell it!

  10. I've stayed at the Boscolo in Rome and there is a small shop filled with Hermès look-a-likes, but you have to go to the real boutiques if you want to get a real Hermès bag.

  12. I don't think that's true. I bought my blue togo HAC 40 early this year 2016 in Sydney and after that i saw one red 40 and a crocodile black 40 in the store. Guess they're still making them.
