I visited the Paris store and was never more insulted in my life. I've been buying Hermes for years - in North America. These people play games to create scarcity. But it's the nasty class based attitude of the shop assistants that disgusted me. They lost me forever. PS I am fluent in French so overhearing what they were saying about tourists when they did not think they understood made me sick....As you said: its a leather bag.
Agree with you! Hermes CS sux too, everytime I emailed them to ask for more info, they kept directing me to go to their nearest boutique nearest to me (which is about 4 to 5 hours away). Why would i waste my 10 hrs trip just to get info. But the thing is I keep buying their items online (shoes/belts/scarves) 😬😬, as for bags I only buy them when we are in DC visiting our daughter, but it's still difficult to get certain colors I want, esp birkin is almost impossible to buy. Chanel is no longer in my buy list since their price raise while in recent years gold hardware tarnish so easily compared to their prior productions.
Theseee bags are very pretty and the quality looks great. Marc Jacobs handbags are also something I have loved for years. I will be buying a *jklux* , I chose the black one with the gold clasp and love it. Thanks for the video.
I'm a fan of luxury brands but can't always afford them. *eudupe* has been a game-changer. Their replica bags are indistinguishable from the authentic ones, and the quality is fantastic. I highly recommend them!
IM SO GLAD SOMEONE WITH A PLATFORM SAID THE BIRKIN IS UGLY. IT IS SIMPLY A STATUS SYMBOL. I have said for years that if Birkins were at Walmart then not a single person would look twice at it.
@@annajustinewhite1743 it’s such a basic design. Maybe it’s not ugly, but it’s definitely not a pretty bag. If people saw the design somewhere else before they learnt about Hermès and it’s exclusivity, I doubt they would buy it for 10 times less. There are great designs out there for perhaps 100 times less but they don’t sell as good as birkins because small businesses don’t have all the resources for marketing.
Thank you for mentioning artisans and alternatives that I can go to for quality leather goods. It’s about time the luxury brands get some accountability!
I have always envied *gtdupe* 's bags, but I don't know why I have never made up my mind to buy one. Now I have watched your video and I like it very much. Thank you for sharing.
.I live neaear the Mexican border. I always choose *jklux* , they are great quality. Some of them are made of leather and it is hard to tell if they are real. Either way, you have your choice. I will not sway you.
most of the store is not handbags, they have everything from teacups to shoes to horse saddles to shirts to perfumes to neckties to scarves. you can walk in off the street to buy pretty much anything. They don't want to sell the bags to resellers for a lot of reasons and that's not unique to them. musicians hate scalpers too. the odds that some random dude in jeans is going to buy a $12k bag for his own use is basically zero.
I was amazed by the quality of my *eudupe* replica bag. It's so well-made, and the attention to detail is impressive. I've already received so many compliments, and I feel like a fashionista carrying it.
I was skeptical about buying a replica bag, but *eudupe* quality and customer service assured me. The bag is stunning, and the materials are of the highest quality. I'm so glad I made this purchase!
I’d forgotten how Hermès were traditionally a saddlery & harness business at the beginning. Throughout their branding there is the use of equestrian symbolism. I’ve had a look at their website & they’ve continued to make saddles, horse blankets & other equestrian items. I looked up the saddlery company GFS who made my horse’s saddle in Walsall, UK. They are still in business & also adverting for a trainee saddler too for £23K a year. It’s good to see that the midlands still has the traditional saddlery industry.
Louis vuitton were saddle makers at one point, too. They used to have quality leather but everything changed a while back & became cheaper and poorer quality
Yes the color of the *gtdupe* is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…
The only Hermes bag design I ever liked was the Constance. I'd be interested in your reviewing and interviewing Hermes employees who have since left the company and started their own brands. April in Paris is one and she actually also has a school in leathercraft.
I'm researching Chanel mini bags and am a bit hesitant about choosing a square or rectangular mini bag. But I prefer the square shape, I think minis are cuter and they allow for a more casual style, but small can serve that function too, my dream Chanel bag would be a small tweed bag. While Chanel leather bags are often seen, tweed bags are even rarer. *jklux*
I worked as a jeweler for a year. I worked with palladium it is, and it isn't expensive. The palladium plating concentrate is sold in a 1 liter bottle. The bottle is like $1000+ dollars. And to make the plating solution you need about 8 oz of deionized water in a glass beaker, and add like 1/2 oz of the palladium solution. And then you set up the electrical connection, for plating. I had a black palladium plated LV Louis Vuitton belt buckle that was "peeling" off the black metal plating. And since I was working as a jeweler; I polished it to remove the black plating, gave it a sand blasted finish, and palladium plated it for like 15 minutes to get a super thick plating coating.
Thank you for sharing the details. My source estimated the palladium cost on this type of coating to be about 3-5 Euros roughly. So it is not much palladium at all but it is better than other buckles we see around.
@@tanner.leatherstein True, in the jewelry business the palladium metal plating pays for itself. If you pay for the bottle $1000 dollars, and you charge to polish and palladium plate white gold rings $50 dollars you need about 20 rings to polish and palladium plate to total $1000 dollars. And 1/2 oz of the plating solution can easily plate over 50 rings.
To spend 990 for a belt, no thanks. Not even $50 for me. I don't even support leather. There are many cruelty free belt options that are equally beautiful, functional and affordable. And if one uses leather, that is fine. As long as the source is ethical, that animals are treated well while they are alive, given dignity, before they are sacrificed for products.
@@wem-c9f Most "vegan" leathers are polyurethane and plastic. They don't biodegrade, and can leech into groundwater, adding microplastics to our environment. While leather is a byproduct of beef farming. Tanner did a good video recently about the greenwashing of the industry. We are kind of morally torn either way. It's kind of a catch-22
I know wealthy women who carry replicas. The main reason they gave is that they just understand the value of money and don't want to spend too much money on bags...so more people choose fashionable ex-Luxcon bags. However, they do spend a lot of money on fine jewelry and other things *preluxz*
@@jonnyfendi2003 Years ago, I shopped at a Coach store here in Las Vegas and they were quite snotty to me. Was just looking for a man's wallet and pulled out my older but worn Coach wallet. No doubt that they could see the Centurion card in the credit card slot. I thanked them and left. Previously in Atlanta at the Coach store, they were quite happy to sell me a wallet. We are only talking about a $200.00 wallet. Just a nice simple affair. Needless to say, I found a guy in Australia that makes Crocodile wallets, purchased two from him at a comparable price and could not be happier. Just his little logo stamp on the inside. For me, wearing "brand" logos is simply advertisement for them. Now, of someone wants to pay me to wear their logo, that could be another matter.
hahaha I like bags, and I also like luxury bags and other products, but I will not pay a high price for them, because the luxury products themselves are not worth such a high price, and more I pay for the premium of these brands. Maybe the production cost of these products only needs to be one twentieth of the selling price or less, thank God, I have a good supplier. The ability to buy top quality products at cheap prices.
I was blown away by the quality of my *eudupe* replica bag. It's so well-made, and the attention to detail is incredible. I feel like a fashion icon carrying it, and I've already received so many compliments.
I just love this guy! My bag purchasing changed for good since Tanner entered the youtube space. Now i cant even bring my self to buy the products of big brands as you can definitely see plastic! Thanks Tanner!
I am a luxury consumer and I like some of Hermés products, but I NEVER saw anything special on both Birkin and Kelly bags. Extremely common designs, excellent craftsmanship but nothing you wouldn’t see on other good brands, and ridiculously high prices. Even if you can afford it, simply doesn’t make sense to spend money on such an ordinary piece like those. Hermés nowadays is just a proof that status can be more valuable than money itself.
Obsesseeed with the Hug bag…the first time I saw it in the wild, I loved it even more! Because of you, *jklux* I own a demellier and now I may have to add the Ferragamo to my collection. What an absolute beauty.
I don't know how luxury brands work or the production costs, but they should use full grain leather in their belts if they are going to sell them at abysmal prices. I build belts for myself and some of my friends, I use 3.5mm thick full grain cowhide with 100% sterling silver buckles, for approximately 75 dollars maximum, full silver, not coated. I love your channel, Mr. Tanner. I got started in leather goods by watching your videos.
I still love my LV reverse monogram *preluxz* clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
Finally! this is the video that I've been waiting for! thank you so much for sharing your expertise and honest review! Nobody should be spending loads of their hard-earned money on a ridiculously overpriced bag. Happy holidays and wishing you the best always! PS. : I'm about to check your suggestions and might invest in those excellent quality and affordable pieces instead! I want to distance myself from mainstream overpriced luxury! Thank you thank you!
Loved your video. It’s refreshing to hear from the perspective of a leather craftsman. I used to have a line of bags I designed, mostly in exotic leathers. Anyway, I think it’s wonderful you are highlighting the talented people who can create leather goods independently of the large corporations. I will say though, I think the community needs those big companies to set the bench mark for pricing. That way, even the independent craftsperson, can charge a reasonable amount for their hard work.
Great perspective. I agree, we need the brands like Hermes to set lots of standards and benchmarks not only in price but quality, ethics and environmental practices. So it is not fair to bash at the corporations as they are pure evil. As always a good balance of corporations, small businesses and artisans make all of us better.
I carried a Hermes since the early 90s. I love the Birkin and I love the Kelly, I love the Constance,I love the Paris Bombay east west. I love my wallets. I just think they’re gorgeous they’re just so amazing. I understand that not everybody feels the same way I do, but I’ve been carirying way before influencers I don’t need anybody’s opinion of what I love and I’m very supportive of your thoughts if they’re ugly, good, more for me.
GREAT VIDEO!!!! 🔥 Absolutely LOVE your take on all the brands you examine. Loved that you included the history of Hermes. Love that you think the Birkin is ugly and impractical 😂
Thank you for your support. Very glad to hear you enjoyed it. Trying to share what learn and think about brands you guys asked me to look into. It is fun
I agree the bag is not attractive and not only that but they look as they are that functional as opening them seems more complicated and I prefer easy of use.
I’ve been following Peter and Lili for years and I’m so happy to hear someone else mention their work! They make amazing products and Peter has even made products specifically for companies like Patek Philippe! Definitely worth a lot more than Hermes in my opinion
I am always looking forward to your videos. They are so informative and helps us to make better choice. We all love quality products but dont want to pay the overprice. Thank you
I find your channel super interesting (though sometimes heartbreaking to see the items dissected!) and I love learning more about leathercraft. I am keen to see and hear your opinion of Justine Leconte's new handbag line - she is a designer with a fantastic RUclips channel and is really proud of her latest release. Sustainability and quality is a primary focus for her and it would be really interesting to hear your take on her pieces, particularly as she has sourced plant-tanned leathers from within Europe and is using an atelier in Portugal as well.
I appreciate you saying that Birkins are ugly because I have never understood their appeal. I like neither their looks nor their ease of use. I have been given great fakes but I just couldn't do it. They felt fussy and awkward and so I passed them on.
Hi, I abssssolutely love the Ferragamo and cream bags. I have been eyeing this bag as well. I prefer the smaller ones but now you have convinced me that *jklux* should go ahead and buy one! Great! Thanks so much for sharing.
@@Taitai7 Not paying thousands of $$$$$$% for a handbag.We all love quality things....but oh hell no.Even if I would be a billionare to.What exactly warrants these prices? They say its handmade...but so are all of out clothing.Humans are still the ones putting it together.No piece of clothing ,gets thrown into a machine in a few metre pieces and comes out the other end ,fully assrmbled.🤣 It still has to be sewn together albeit by a machinist...but its done by hand.So why is Hermes charging so many $$$$$$ for a bag that is made from ordinary cow's leather? Crazy
Yes, thank you for saying it: Birkin bags look like bags for old ladies. I grew up seeing more mature women wearing Hermès and Chanel bags. So this trend since Gossip girls etc when young girls wear Chanel and Hermès is still so weird to me.
J'ai 51 ans, donc une "dame" 😅et je n'aime ni Hermes ni Chanel également, j'ai horreur de leur couleur marron et des monogrammes. Je les range dans la catégorie mamie
Not only the quality, all the unique designs and collaborations with different artists are also so interesting. many of them are pretty enough to hang it up on the wall as art pieces.
They set up a silk scarf silk screening rig and a collection of vintage scarves in an expo in SF. The scarfs were pretty spectacular, with incredible color vibrancy.
I love the Hermès fragrances. They tend to be not that well known or worn by many. The Un Jardin range is of fragrances are very fresh but, I love wearing Kelly Calèche as it reminds me of meadow hay & roses.
I find the Hermès fragrances last for days when I spritz them on my clothes. However, everyone’s experiences are different with fragrances as there are so many factors that affect the longevity.
I only discovered their Kelly Calèche fragrance through an advert sample in a fashion magazine. I liked it & then sought it out at a department store. Thank you for your interesting & educational video. I agree about supporting artisans rather than designer labels, however many people don’t value the skills of the craftsmanship & prefer the status of a ‘luxury brand’. I really enjoy watching your videos & wish you a Happy Christmas 🎄
@@tanner.leatherstein Hermes fragrance line is one of the better ones in the 'fashion' world...Chanel comes second...both of these brands employ an in-house perfumer. So it's good to see the same pride extends to that side.
Great video. As someone who owns only two luxury bags (YSL & Celine) , I have always wondered why Hermes is so expensive. I have never craved it till date but no hate to folks who dream to own it. To me it looks mediocre.. I would rather buy a LV or a Chanel bag.
It’s the quality of their bags. Once you own one, you’ll never go back to LV or Chanel. Both brands have mediocre quality compared to Hermes. I would know so since I own a lot of LV and Chanel bags, but the Hermes bags superb in quality.
@@layzeh3266this is so true! Chanel went totally crazy with their prices and their quality went downhill. With LV prices, it is similar. I would never again buy a Chanel bag in store.
THen you are probably ignorant. The quality has nothing to do with LV or Chanel, both subcontracts a large part of their bag production to suppliers in France. LV stills produces some of their most prestigious bags directly but not all the production. Every Hermès bags is produced in France, by Hermès artisans. Here is the difference.
I have always been obsessed with leather goods, but have always side-eyed luxury houses, so most of my handbags are purchased from artisans in the country where I live. Your channel has been so informative and I appreciate that you are making an effort to direct consumers towards artisan-made leather products.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the MoMococo leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Thank you for linking artisans in the end! I try to get all my bags/shoes/belts in leather as it's more resilient and durable but a 10x mark up? Not going to happen in a million years. Especially if most goes to stock holders not the craftsman making it. I want to pay for the product and the craft NOT a status symbol and brand name. Thank you for bringing out those who deserve credit where credit is due!
Thank you for the suggestion. This video was rushed so much this week during the Holiday shopping madness in the workshop. And next year I will do detailed videos on brands including their history and more of a general review of the brand than just a bag dissection. I find this new style is more fun to do and it seems like you guys enjoy them as well. Stay tuned and thank you for your support!
A very interesting look into a highly specialized field. If I hadn't seen this video I am confident, that I would have never gotten this perspective on luxury leather goods. Thank you for the great video! :)
The best thing about the Birkin bag is the assortment of colors and also , the 35 cm bag is great for travel as you can pack a lot into it. You can get around purchasing one, it is not as exclusive as the company tries to make it out to be. And there are many on the resale market
This is my first (but not the last) purchase of a D U P B A G Y bag. For the affordable price, it exceeded my expectations! It's soft, the perfect size, and the color is gorgeous! Love this bag!
It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on artisans and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 amzwatch bags in the past 3 years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Yes the color of the *amzrepe* is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…
While I don't find the Birkin ugly (I also don't think it's particularly pretty, either), it does seem impractical. Like an outdated design. No strap, fussy foldover top with sangles and turn lock. It looks like a complete pain in the butt to open and close. Better handbag mechanics have evolved since the Birkin was created. Thank you for this informative video.
The fold over top seems nice for certain purposes, plus unlike the Kelly you can carry the bag without fastening the top. Making it a good flexible tote. Granted, the lack of crossbody strap, especially with a bag of that weight, is baffling. But, you can buy third party straps that are very secure but wear out the leather faster, as the strip that closes the bag is not designed to take the entire weight of the bag. But, by the time you've factored in the stuff you bought just to buy the bag, the third party strap and bag organizer, and the occasional repair bills, it probably isn't worth it. But for those with too much money to burn, there really isn't any other mom bag to buy. Sure, LV makes backpacks, but those aren't as prestigious. And some people really need a tote for the convenience of getting things in an out of there bags.
When I first saw the Birkin, I thought the closure was too fiddly and awkward. Then I realized it’s just a status symbol. It boggles the mind how anyone would buy that belt that costs less than $100 to make, and pay almost $1000. 🙄 Hermes will never see me as their customer, since I don’t think I’ve ever spent over $200 for a bag, and the last few years I’ve even been making my own.
I love Peter Nitz collection... Nowadays i focus more on leather quality. However I learn that most of the leather goods that use good leather without brand is targeting the male customer more than the female. Thus, the collection designed for female is quite limited. Can you dive more deep into this?
If you really want to buy a bag from the store, you need to be more specific when you ask for one. It's not that Hermes don't think you are deserving, it's just they hate resellers and instruct their sales associates to avoid them. If you go in stores just asking for any bag, then the answer will always be "sorry, we don't have any". However if you show genuine interest in their products, like asking for "in the loop bag belt bag" in etoupe color, togo leather, gold hardware things may be different. Let then know you are familiar with their products, like bags that are not trendy, and the sales associates will likely warm up to you. They will see you as true costumer. Another tip is to go for tax free stores inside airports and ask for a specifc bag. If they have it in stock, they are obligated to sell it to you because they are not allowed to hide inventory.
I didn't know any of this. Actually I almost always go to the airport stores as I travel around for leather. I will try these in my next visits. Thank you for your helpful insights.
Sounds extremely narcissistic, no? A customer always have the power, since you have the funds and you have the executive choice to buy or not to buy. But you come to Hermes and it sounded like you need to beg them just to purchase their product. Sounds a little insane to me.
It's like entering an exclusive country club. You're paying big bucks, and still you have to go through a very demanding waiting list and hard scrutiny.@@Betelgue5e
@@jeffersonperrylepon9623 Funny. If I am to throw away my money, best way to make a statement, would be to buy their most exclusive and most expensive product and burn it for all to see. That would be far more satisfying, than just buying it and carry it with you, for everyone else to admire or envy, walking around with it like an airhead peacock. Yes. That would be the kind of game I am willing to play.
Excellent video. New subscriber here! Those other artisanal bags you mentioned Chester Mox, Peter Nitz, etc. are of unbelievable quality. I am thinking of ordering one.
just bought a smaller size last week in a new color. It’s a similar color to my Birkin 25 Beton, but that’s okay! My bag doesn’t have the chain strap. I love the look of the chain and the simplicity and lightness of the braided strap. Love that color too. I wanted a small carry-on bag and love the lvguci , it’s so classy.
Hi.. thank you for doing a Hermes review.. would you please do a review on the brand Fleuron? they share the same factory with Hermes..do they use the same leather like Hermes as others mention in the market.... thanks!
Thank you Tanner for this interesting breakdown. You are amazing! And thanks for sharing artisans to watch. I have full respect for Hermes's positioning and branding strategy. I can't believe what they have pulled off, don't know when it'll come crashing down. Shareholders, enjoy the ride as long as it lasts!
200 years from now, people will read about how ridiculous it was that others played this psyche game in the 20th/21st century. In the end, if you have the money and the mindset to be in the bag game, then by all means, go for it. I’m glad I’m not hooked yet, lol.
Regardless of the bbkbags bag or any other factors, I ardently hold that without proper expertise, one would fail to distinguish variations in the sack's appearance or metal parts.
I started using the mz Wallace nylon bags…they’re lightweight, easy to clean, hold tons of stuff and have lots of inside zippers and pockets. Once I became a mom I now prioritize function over fashion. I don’t think any Hermes bag provides much function.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the bbkbags leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Thank you for making this video and being so honest about it. It’s good to know that these brands it’s all about logos and names but when it comes to selling costumers an item.. turns out it’s not the best quality. Also thanks for mentioning better alternatives like Chester Mox!
I still love my LV reverse monogram bbkbags clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
I love Hermes my favorite items are their scarves and small leather goods. I have 2 Birkin and they are very special to me and I’m so happy to be in that group of insiders! My first Hermes wallet was purchased 20 years ago and I still have it and it’s in mint condition. Yes, it is worth the splurge to invest in Hermes my scarves along with my birkin’s are my favorite!

And to make the plating solution you need about 8 oz of deionized water in a glass beaker, and add like 1/2 oz of the palladium solution. And then you set up the electrical connection, for plating.
I had a black palladium plated LV Louis Vuitton belt buckle that was "peeling" off the black metal plating.
And since I was working as a jeweler; I polished it to remove the black plating, gave it a sand blasted finish, and palladium plated it for like 15 minutes to get a super thick plating coating.
Thank you for sharing the details. My source estimated the palladium cost on this type of coating to be about 3-5 Euros roughly. So it is not much palladium at all but it is better than other buckles we see around.
@@tanner.leatherstein True, in the jewelry business the palladium metal plating pays for itself.
If you pay for the bottle $1000 dollars, and you charge to polish and palladium plate white gold rings $50 dollars you need about 20 rings to polish and palladium plate to total $1000 dollars.
And 1/2 oz of the plating solution can easily plate over 50 rings.
To spend 990 for a belt, no thanks. Not even $50 for me. I don't even support leather. There are many cruelty free belt options that are equally beautiful, functional and affordable. And if one uses leather, that is fine. As long as the source is ethical, that animals are treated well while they are alive, given dignity, before they are sacrificed for products.
@@wem-c9faren’t they sacrificed for food? Leather is a byproduct in such a case.
@@wem-c9f Most "vegan" leathers are polyurethane and plastic. They don't biodegrade, and can leech into groundwater, adding microplastics to our environment. While leather is a byproduct of beef farming. Tanner did a good video recently about the greenwashing of the industry.
We are kind of morally torn either way. It's kind of a catch-22
It’s laughable that Hermès sales associates are instructed to say “We’ve sold our last piece and the rest is display only”. Hysterical.
They dont care… if you ask to see a simple wallet in the display they tell you no right to your face.
I know wealthy women who carry replicas. The main reason they gave is that they just understand the value of money and don't want to spend too much money on bags...so more people choose fashionable ex-Luxcon bags. However, they do spend a lot of money on fine jewelry and other things *preluxz*
@@jonnyfendi2003 Years ago, I shopped at a Coach store here in Las Vegas and they were quite snotty to me. Was just looking for a man's wallet and pulled out my older but worn Coach wallet. No doubt that they could see the Centurion card in the credit card slot. I thanked them and left. Previously in Atlanta at the Coach store, they were quite happy to sell me a wallet. We are only talking about a $200.00 wallet. Just a nice simple affair. Needless to say, I found a guy in Australia that makes Crocodile wallets, purchased two from him at a comparable price and could not be happier. Just his little logo stamp on the inside. For me, wearing "brand" logos is simply advertisement for them. Now, of someone wants to pay me to wear their logo, that could be another matter.
Hermes is a luxury experience for people with humiliation kink.
hahaha
I like bags, and I also like luxury bags and other products, but I will not pay a high price for them, because the luxury products themselves are not worth such a high price, and more I pay for the premium of these brands. Maybe the production cost of these products only needs to be one twentieth of the selling price or less, thank God, I have a good supplier. The ability to buy top quality products at cheap prices.
My SA was not coy at all informing me that I need to build a purchase history to access the desirable products.
I was blown away by the quality of my *eudupe* replica bag. It's so well-made, and the attention to detail is incredible. I feel like a fashion icon carrying it, and I've already received so many compliments.
I just love this guy! My bag purchasing changed for good since Tanner entered the youtube space. Now i cant even bring my self to buy the products of big brands as you can definitely see plastic! Thanks Tanner!
I am a luxury consumer and I like some of Hermés products, but I NEVER saw anything special on both Birkin and Kelly bags. Extremely common designs, excellent craftsmanship but nothing you wouldn’t see on other good brands, and ridiculously high prices. Even if you can afford it, simply doesn’t make sense to spend money on such an ordinary piece like those. Hermés nowadays is just a proof that status can be more valuable than money itself.
Well said! Thank you for sharing this
Those common designs were made common because of the hermes I guess
Which luxury brand do you like best in terms of quality?
Obsesseeed with the Hug bag…the first time I saw it in the wild, I loved it even more! Because of you, *jklux* I own a demellier and now I may have to add the Ferragamo to my collection. What an absolute beauty.
It's just a paltry amount for some people.
I love how you analyse these brands and your honest opinions.
I don't know how luxury brands work or the production costs, but they should use full grain leather in their belts if they are going to sell them at abysmal prices. I build belts for myself and some of my friends, I use 3.5mm thick full grain cowhide with 100% sterling silver buckles, for approximately 75 dollars maximum, full silver, not coated. I love your channel, Mr. Tanner. I got started in leather goods by watching your videos.
I still love my LV reverse monogram *preluxz* clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
Finally! this is the video that I've been waiting for! thank you so much for sharing your expertise and honest review! Nobody should be spending loads of their hard-earned money on a ridiculously overpriced bag. Happy holidays and wishing you the best always! PS. : I'm about to check your suggestions and might invest in those excellent quality and affordable pieces instead! I want to distance myself from mainstream overpriced luxury! Thank you thank you!
Glad it was helpful! And I appreciate your support. Happy holidays!
I heard that Delvaux is the other brand that is still use handstitching method to their bag
Loved your video. It’s refreshing to hear from the perspective of a leather craftsman.
I used to have a line of bags I designed, mostly in exotic leathers.
Anyway, I think it’s wonderful you are highlighting the talented people who can create leather goods independently of the large corporations.
I will say though, I think the community needs those big companies to set the bench mark for pricing. That way, even the independent craftsperson, can charge a reasonable amount for their hard work.
Great perspective. I agree, we need the brands like Hermes to set lots of standards and benchmarks not only in price but quality, ethics and environmental practices. So it is not fair to bash at the corporations as they are pure evil. As always a good balance of corporations, small businesses and artisans make all of us better.
I carried a Hermes since the early 90s. I love the Birkin and I love the Kelly, I love the Constance,I love the Paris Bombay east west. I love my wallets. I just think they’re gorgeous they’re just so amazing. I understand that not everybody feels the same way I do, but I’ve been carirying way before influencers I don’t need anybody’s opinion of what I love and I’m very supportive of your thoughts if they’re ugly, good, more for me.
Nobody cares about you. Shoo

@ You’ll live!
GREAT VIDEO!!!! 🔥 Absolutely LOVE your take on all the brands you examine. Loved that you included the history of Hermes. Love that you think the Birkin is ugly and impractical 😂
Thank you for your support. Very glad to hear you enjoyed it. Trying to share what learn and think about brands you guys asked me to look into. It is fun
I agree the bag is not attractive and not only that but they look as they are that functional as opening them seems more complicated and I prefer easy of use.
The Bolide bag is a lot easer to use. That is the bag that Hermes designed for the zipper.
Didn't know that. Thank you for sharing
Lv alma design is similar
Love HIDUPZ the way you show it! You really focus on showing off the bag. I don't think any other RUclipsr can show off bags in as much detail as you.
Excellent as always, Tanner - thank you & happy holidays!🌲🕯️🎀
Glad you enjoyed it. You too have Happy Holidays 🎄
I’ve been following Peter and Lili for years and I’m so happy to hear someone else mention their work! They make amazing products and Peter has even made products specifically for companies like Patek Philippe! Definitely worth a lot more than Hermes in my opinion
Y’all, no one buys Hermes for leather. Everyone buys Hermes for status 😂
FACTS!! There’s a lot of great quality leather out there at a fraction of their prices.
Exactly.
I am always looking forward to your videos. They are so informative and helps us to make better choice. We all love quality products but dont want to pay the overprice. Thank you
I find your channel super interesting (though sometimes heartbreaking to see the items dissected!) and I love learning more about leathercraft. I am keen to see and hear your opinion of Justine Leconte's new handbag line - she is a designer with a fantastic RUclips channel and is really proud of her latest release. Sustainability and quality is a primary focus for her and it would be really interesting to hear your take on her pieces, particularly as she has sourced plant-tanned leathers from within Europe and is using an atelier in Portugal as well.
I love their Silk Scarves ❤
I don’t know about their bags. Thank you for sharing your perspective on Hermes
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching!
I am not on this journey but i am fascinated by watching others on it.
😊
I appreciate you saying that Birkins are ugly because I have never understood their appeal. I like neither their looks nor their ease of use. I have been given great fakes but I just couldn't do it. They felt fussy and awkward and so I passed them on.
Hi, I abssssolutely love the Ferragamo and cream bags. I have been eyeing this bag as well. I prefer the smaller ones but now you have convinced me that *jklux* should go ahead and buy one! Great! Thanks so much for sharing.
I could be a billionaire today, and zero of my billions would go to Hermes.
Wise.
Are you sure about that? Never seen those lottery winners?
@@Taitai7 Not paying thousands of $$$$$$% for a handbag.We all love quality things....but oh hell no.Even if I would be a billionare to.What exactly warrants these prices? They say its handmade...but so are all of out clothing.Humans are still the ones putting it together.No piece of clothing ,gets thrown into a machine in a few metre pieces and comes out the other end ,fully assrmbled.🤣 It still has to be sewn together albeit by a machinist...but its done by hand.So why is Hermes charging so many $$$$$$ for a bag that is made from ordinary cow's leather? Crazy
So true
Yes, thank you for saying it: Birkin bags look like bags for old ladies. I grew up seeing more mature women wearing Hermès and Chanel bags. So this trend since Gossip girls etc when young girls wear Chanel and Hermès is still so weird to me.
I agree, a Hermes bag is an old lady bag
I really like both, but they are indeed for mature women, I never like them when I was a young woman, they don’t look good in the youth.
It’s the bag that the moms in Kdramas wear.
J'ai 51 ans, donc une "dame" 😅et je n'aime ni Hermes ni Chanel également, j'ai horreur de leur couleur marron et des monogrammes. Je les range dans la catégorie mamie
The construction feels so sturdy, and the look is timeless. Great job, cicishops!
kay, I’ve always scratched my head about the obsession around the HIDUPZ book totes and their practicality, but this one is adorable!! Congratulations
The one thing Hermes does is make amazing scarves. They are just gorgeous and a wonderful addition to something’s wardrobe.
I have no knowledge of fabrics but I heard the quality from other people.
Agree about their scarves. If I was into scarves on the regular I would definitely buy from them.
I like Dior’s scarves better.
Not only the quality, all the unique designs and collaborations with different artists are also so interesting. many of them are pretty enough to hang it up on the wall as art pieces.
They set up a silk scarf silk screening rig and a collection of vintage scarves in an expo in SF. The scarfs were pretty spectacular, with incredible color vibrancy.
I love the Hermès fragrances. They tend to be not that well known or worn by many. The Un Jardin range is of fragrances are very fresh but, I love wearing Kelly Calèche as it reminds me of meadow hay & roses.
I think they’re garbage and last for about 45 minutes
I find the Hermès fragrances last for days when I spritz them on my clothes. However, everyone’s experiences are different with fragrances as there are so many factors that affect the longevity.
No clue about their fragrance line...
I only discovered their Kelly Calèche fragrance through an advert sample in a fashion magazine. I liked it & then sought it out at a department store.
Thank you for your interesting & educational video. I agree about supporting artisans rather than designer labels, however many people don’t value the skills of the craftsmanship & prefer the status of a ‘luxury brand’. I really enjoy watching your videos & wish you a Happy Christmas 🎄
@@tanner.leatherstein Hermes fragrance line is one of the better ones in the 'fashion' world...Chanel comes second...both of these brands employ an in-house perfumer. So it's good to see the same pride extends to that side.
Great video. As someone who owns only two luxury bags (YSL & Celine) , I have always wondered why Hermes is so expensive. I have never craved it till date but no hate to folks who dream to own it. To me it looks mediocre.. I would rather buy a LV or a Chanel bag.
It’s the quality of their bags. Once you own one, you’ll never go back to LV or Chanel. Both brands have mediocre quality compared to Hermes. I would know so since I own a lot of LV and Chanel bags, but the Hermes bags superb in quality.
@@layzeh3266this is so true! Chanel went totally crazy with their prices and their quality went downhill.
With LV prices, it is similar.
I would never again buy a Chanel bag in store.
@@layzeh3266 And some of the vintage Hermes bags are superb. I have a White Bus tote that has all the craftsmanship and still looks as good as new.
THen you are probably ignorant. The quality has nothing to do with LV or Chanel, both subcontracts a large part of their bag production to suppliers in France. LV stills produces some of their most prestigious bags directly but not all the production.
Every Hermès bags is produced in France, by Hermès artisans. Here is the difference.
Chanel was a Nazi informant. I always shake my head when I see someone with brown skin supporting that brand.
It’s the perfect color for the *amzrepe* ! 💖 Mini Kelly alternative! Love it!
It's not entertaining.. It is an unbiased informative and educational content - as expected. Ugh, love your work!
I have always been obsessed with leather goods, but have always side-eyed luxury houses, so most of my handbags are purchased from artisans in the country where I live. Your channel has been so informative and I appreciate that you are making an effort to direct consumers towards artisan-made leather products.
I wish you would review Hamano, loved by the Imperial family of Japan. Dying to know the quality, because the cost isn't bad.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the MoMococo leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Thanks for this great video, Tanner! Merry Christmas!
Same to you!
Thank you for linking artisans in the end! I try to get all my bags/shoes/belts in leather as it's more resilient and durable but a 10x mark up? Not going to happen in a million years. Especially if most goes to stock holders not the craftsman making it. I want to pay for the product and the craft NOT a status symbol and brand name. Thank you for bringing out those who deserve credit where credit is due!
Can you do a video on Kate Spade? I want to see if the cheaper brand have good quality.
Or Francis Valentine
Thank you for the suggestion. This video was rushed so much this week during the Holiday shopping madness in the workshop. And next year I will do detailed videos on brands including their history and more of a general review of the brand than just a bag dissection. I find this new style is more fun to do and it seems like you guys enjoy them as well. Stay tuned and thank you for your support!
This is my favorite video you made. Very informative.
I'm thrilled to hear that it's your favorite! Thank you so much for your support
your videos are so enjoyable and so informative - thank you :)
A very interesting look into a highly specialized field. If I hadn't seen this video I am confident, that I would have never gotten this perspective on luxury leather goods. Thank you for the great video! :)
The best thing about the Birkin bag is the assortment of colors and also , the 35 cm bag is great for travel as you can pack a lot into it. You can get around purchasing one, it is not as exclusive as the company tries to make it out to be. And there are many on the resale market
This is my first (but not the last) purchase of a D U P B A G Y bag. For the affordable price, it exceeded my expectations! It's soft, the perfect size, and the color is gorgeous! Love this bag!
I love your videos, thank you for that.
Personally, I love Birkin and Kelly (retourne version).
They are absolutely timeless.
It doesn't matter where they are made. It depends on artisans and quality inspection. My family and I have bought 2 amzwatch bags in the past 3 years and I'm sure you won't be disappointed!
Thank you for showing us the mind game that Hermes plays.
Thank you Tanner for keep educating us ❤ Possible to do video for APC bag pleaseee 😊
the amzwatch would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
Yes the color of the *amzrepe* is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…
While I don't find the Birkin ugly (I also don't think it's particularly pretty, either), it does seem impractical. Like an outdated design. No strap, fussy foldover top with sangles and turn lock. It looks like a complete pain in the butt to open and close. Better handbag mechanics have evolved since the Birkin was created. Thank you for this informative video.
The fold over top seems nice for certain purposes, plus unlike the Kelly you can carry the bag without fastening the top. Making it a good flexible tote. Granted, the lack of crossbody strap, especially with a bag of that weight, is baffling. But, you can buy third party straps that are very secure but wear out the leather faster, as the strip that closes the bag is not designed to take the entire weight of the bag. But, by the time you've factored in the stuff you bought just to buy the bag, the third party strap and bag organizer, and the occasional repair bills, it probably isn't worth it. But for those with too much money to burn, there really isn't any other mom bag to buy. Sure, LV makes backpacks, but those aren't as prestigious. And some people really need a tote for the convenience of getting things in an out of there bags.
the HIDUPZ would be super cute during the fall with a nude or tan or even tonal outfit! i’m thinking a tan wool coat with that bag!!
When I first saw the Birkin, I thought the closure was too fiddly and awkward. Then I realized it’s just a status symbol. It boggles the mind how anyone would buy that belt that costs less than $100 to make, and pay almost $1000. 🙄 Hermes will never see me as their customer, since I don’t think I’ve ever spent over $200 for a bag, and the last few years I’ve even been making my own.
You are my comforter I love you *unidups* ’s bag!
I love Peter Nitz collection...
Nowadays i focus more on leather quality. However I learn that most of the leather goods that use good leather without brand is targeting the male customer more than the female. Thus, the collection designed for female is quite limited. Can you dive more deep into this?
peter nitz has 0 for sale.
It’s so adorable how you explain things
Thank you for doing these videos, as a fashion lover, I absolutely loved learning everything from your channel.
"Birkin is ugly" YES THANK YOU. I respect Hermes, but there are plenty of Hermes bags that aren't a Birkin or a Kelly that actually looks good.
If you really want to buy a bag from the store, you need to be more specific when you ask for one. It's not that Hermes don't think you are deserving, it's just they hate resellers and instruct their sales associates to avoid them. If you go in stores just asking for any bag, then the answer will always be "sorry, we don't have any". However if you show genuine interest in their products, like asking for "in the loop bag belt bag" in etoupe color, togo leather, gold hardware things may be different. Let then know you are familiar with their products, like bags that are not trendy, and the sales associates will likely warm up to you. They will see you as true costumer. Another tip is to go for tax free stores inside airports and ask for a specifc bag. If they have it in stock, they are obligated to sell it to you because they are not allowed to hide inventory.
I didn't know any of this. Actually I almost always go to the airport stores as I travel around for leather. I will try these in my next visits. Thank you for your helpful insights.
Sounds extremely narcissistic, no?
A customer always have the power, since you have the funds and you have the executive choice to buy or not to buy.
But you come to Hermes and it sounded like you need to beg them just to purchase their product.
Sounds a little insane to me.
It's like entering an exclusive country club. You're paying big bucks, and still you have to go through a very demanding waiting list and hard scrutiny.@@Betelgue5e
@@Betelgue5ethats what you call the hermes game.
@@jeffersonperrylepon9623 Funny.
If I am to throw away my money, best way to make a statement, would be to buy their most exclusive and most expensive product and burn it for all to see.
That would be far more satisfying, than just buying it and carry it with you, for everyone else to admire or envy, walking around with it like an airhead peacock.
Yes. That would be the kind of game I am willing to play.
Excellent video. New subscriber here! Those other artisanal bags you mentioned Chester Mox, Peter Nitz, etc. are of unbelievable quality. I am thinking of ordering one.
Thanks !!! sooo much healing goes around the world in supporting the artisans !!! ❤❤❤ Lots of love from Germany, Astrid Eta Anja
So much money that can be used to feed the poor Around the globe.
You like cliché, eh? It's BORING!
I thought you were going to cut apart a $50,000 bag.
just bought a smaller size last week in a new color. It’s a similar color to my Birkin 25 Beton, but that’s okay! My bag doesn’t have the chain strap. I love the look of the chain and the simplicity and lightness of the braided strap. Love that color too. I wanted a small carry-on bag and love the lvguci , it’s so classy.
Hi.. thank you for doing a Hermes review.. would you please do a review on the brand Fleuron? they share the same factory with Hermes..do they use the same leather like Hermes as others mention in the market.... thanks!
As you ripped the belt apart, my heart ripped along together 😅💔
Thank you Tanner for this interesting breakdown. You are amazing! And thanks for sharing artisans to watch. I have full respect for Hermes's positioning and branding strategy. I can't believe what they have pulled off, don't know when it'll come crashing down. Shareholders, enjoy the ride as long as it lasts!
Thank you for this video. Do you have a list of small, independent artisans? I would love to support them.
I’m sooooooo glad I found this channel 😩
Thank you so much HIDUPZ for taking us shopping…my wish list just got longer
thank u for always delivering your viewers with great content.More power to you and your channel.👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
Thank you so much, I appreciate message like this! :)
Love everything you put out here! I was so surprised by the D U P B A G Y crossbody bag. love it!
200 years from now, people will read about how ridiculous it was that others played this psyche game in the 20th/21st century. In the end, if you have the money and the mindset to be in the bag game, then by all means, go for it. I’m glad I’m not hooked yet, lol.
I was in Turkey recently and had a empriente multi pouchette with me. They show me a *amzrepe* bag and it looked just like it.
Dang the last bit of the it is so raw and I love it. Pecking order, abundance signaling !
Regardless of the bbkbags bag or any other factors, I ardently hold that without proper expertise, one would fail to distinguish variations in the sack's appearance or metal parts.
Would love to see thé same about Chanel. Their price increase policy is just madness
Volkan, you are THE Voice of Wisdom. Thank you! As usual, great video, but this is one of my favorites.
Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
I started using the mz Wallace nylon bags…they’re lightweight, easy to clean, hold tons of stuff and have lots of inside zippers and pockets. Once I became a mom I now prioritize function over fashion. I don’t think any Hermes bag provides much function.
what is the soundtrack that you used for this video? I wanna listen to it!
I soooo agree with you! they are old ladies bags. They used to be Bernadette Chirak's hand bags!
I love Hermes for Caleche ,Amazon, and Caleche Soie, my signature perfumes, and Terre Hermes, my husband's scent. And silk scarves are great.
I really love your taste and style always so chic. My faves would be the bbkbags leather backpack and the Swarovski pave diamond ring so gorg. Thank you for your recommendations.
Thank you for making this video and being so honest about it. It’s good to know that these brands it’s all about logos and names but when it comes to selling costumers an item.. turns out it’s not the best quality. Also thanks for mentioning better alternatives like Chester Mox!
I love Hermes jewellery, the design is sublime. And prices are affordable for silver items.
This HIDUPZ tote is beautifully colored, very sturdy and the perfect size. Not too small, not too big.
I would never spend that much money on a purse. Its crazy
You're video is always entertaining and we thank you for your amazing work. 👏 ❤
I still love my LV reverse monogram bbkbags clutch! It's versatile, fits a variety of items, and is definitely a workhorse! I think seeing it everywhere (like the LV speedy) is proof that it's already a classic.
I love Hermes my favorite items are their scarves and small leather goods. I have 2 Birkin and they are very special to me and I’m so happy to be in that group of insiders! My first Hermes wallet was purchased 20 years ago and I still have it and it’s in mint condition. Yes, it is worth the splurge to invest in Hermes my scarves along with my birkin’s are my favorite!
I love that you use a ReMarkable tablet too. I use it in my job daily.
Can you do a deconsctruction on a Furla bag?
