The hackberry crop is the pride of Sorède's workshop | Hermès Footsteps Across The World

- Hundreds of inhabitants of Sorède, in the south of France, braided whips and riding crops in hackberry wood until the car and the tractor supplanted the horse.
A workshop at the foot of the Albères massif still works with this strong, supple wood, in an establishment for people with mental disabilities.
Hermès entrusts them with the task of making all its riding crops and dressage kits.
Directed by Frédéric Laffont.

Welcome to the world of Hermès:
In 1837, Thierry Hermès opened his workshop making the finest quality harnesses and saddles in the heart of Paris.
Today, Hermès is still a family company whose craftspeople make, often by hand and always with love , bags and belts, diaries and dishes, scarves and shoes, perfumes and purses, ties and travelling furniture, as well as gloves, hats, watches, jewellery and clothes.
For me, Hermes has always represented perfection! Thank you to Hermes and all of your talented craftsmen for making the world a more beautiful place.
One of the most inspiring things we can do is to make everyone feel important in their roles. Bravo- truly magnificent!
Ohh c’est tellement beau ce qu’ils réussissent à faire !
What a great initiative. They truly love what they do and give all they have to make a great product!
Cher Hermès,
Although I still cannot afford buying your leather goods or some styles or yours may not be my top choice, I feel so pleased that France & this world have you to continue so much treasurable but already forgotten craftsmanship and so many down-to-earth values!
Cordialement,
A beautiful tribute and story of the riding crop, training stick, and lunge whip. Thank you, Hermes, for sharing the history.

BUT....what does Hermes PAY them for their fine skilled craftwork???...I know what they charge me for a whip!!!
Mi amor
Brilliant concept & it keeps a trade alive as well. The U.S. could learn a lesson & promote such projects to get the "homeless" off the streets. They could easily set up similar gov't-funded projects (to eliminate the potential of closing if not "profitable"), offer employment & if the person refuses, their public assistance gets reviewed, potentially revoked & institutionalized or jailed if warrants exist. The truly disabled, who are not capable of employment, should be institutionalized, unless family intervenes & contracts to provide long-term housing/care.These encampments full of disease, filth & crime must be eliminated, not encouraged. Large metropolitan areas with these encampments are flirting with the very real potential for a serious disease epidemic.

wow
How much do these overpriced riding crops cost?
