An elegant choice for polished days and relaxed evenings, this dark navy Hermès Trim 31 in supple Taurillon Clemence slips neatly over the shoulder, adding quiet luxury to office outfits, gallery visits or dinner dates. Vintage and refined with silver‑toned accents, it elevates everyday looks with ease.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Trim 31? A: With measurements of approximately 30 × 22 × 7 cm, it comfortably holds a compact wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and an e‑reader or 11‑inch tablet. A4 documents will not lie flat. Capacity varies with how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can the Trim 31 be worn crossbody? A: This model is designed primarily for the shoulder. The single strap is adjustable, but with an approximate drop of 27 cm it will be too short for most people to wear crossbody comfortably.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The bag features a zip top with an additional lobster‑clasp detail. Inside, there is one zip pocket and one slip pocket to organise small items.
Q: What is Taurillon Clemence leather like in daily use? A: Clemence is a soft, pebbled calfskin known for its supple hand and relaxed drape. It is relatively resistant to light surface scratches and develops a gentle slouch over time. Compared with Togo, Clemence is a touch heavier and tends to look more casual and softly structured.
Q: How should I care for Clemence leather and the suede lining? A: Wipe the exterior gently with a soft, dry cloth and keep the bag away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight/heat. If it gets lightly wet, blot—do not rub—and allow to air dry. Store it stuffed to support the shape, in a breathable dust bag. For the suede lining, shake out crumbs and use a clean, soft brush to lift dust; avoid liquids and coloured cloths. For deeper care, we recommend professional leather services.
Q: Does it hold a water bottle or tablet? A: A slim 500 ml bottle and an 11‑inch tablet can fit alongside daily essentials. For the most comfortable carry and to preserve the bag’s shape, avoid over‑stuffing and heavy loads.
Q: What does the stamp Square F (2002) mean? A: Hermès uses a blind‑stamp system to indicate production year. A letter within a square corresponds to 1997–2014 production; the letter F in a square denotes the year 2002.
Q: What exactly is included with this listing? A: Everything included is listed under product information. If an item such as a dust bag or box is not listed in product information, it is not included with this piece.
Q: Are there any condition notes I should be aware of? A: Overall very good with light signs of wear. The exterior shows light traces of use; hardware is shiny with fine scratches. The interior suede is clean with minor signs of use; note that the zip pull on the internal pocket has detached.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: France, consistent with Hermès production of the Trim line.
