Hermes Kelly Long Wallet

Hermes Kelly Long Wallet

Time to put an end to the suspense. We previously teased you with the orange box, now it’s time to show off the goods. This being Megs’ first dive into Hermes exotics, the Hermes Kelly Long Wallet (officially: Money Holder) in orange matte alligator is the quintessential combination of skin and tone from the House of Hermes. Megs had been contemplating to go exotic with Hermes for a while - when our Hermes SA contacted us and we learned about this beauty’s immediate availability, there was not much hesitation. The wallet is made from matte Mississippi alligator and dyed in Hermes’ signature orange color. The gator version is denoted by the small square printed by the Hermes logo. This exotic skin is mainly reserved for Hermes’ smaller leather goods, larger bags are very rare in alligator.

This Kelly Long variety also comes in other leathers. It is available in mysore goatskin, box calf and epsom calfskin in a broad variety of colors. Prices for the regular leather versions range around $2,350. Needless to say, this exotic version is a wee bit more expensive. Inquire with your local Hermes boutique if interested.

The skin is absolutely flawless! This is *quite* an impressive wallet; looks perfect for evening, too. The color will contrast nicely with the blue jean birkin.

Congratulations! It is stunning.

I’m intrigued by this type of skin! I thought Hermès only sold two types of croc – the Australian Porosus and the Niloticus crocodile from Africa. Pardon my ignorance about the line itself and I’m new to the forum. :oops: But I’ll have to search for this skin in the folrum links. It’s fascinating.

Now I’ve got something else on my “dream / wish list”!

Please keep us posted – like how much you can carry in it, how it holds up, etc.

A lovely wallet. Perhaps I´d prefer an other color.but this orange is so Hermes.

This is the most stunning wallet I have ever laid my eyes on!!!!!!! The alligator is stunning!

June 22nd, 2008

Hermes uses Mississippi Alligator, which has scales that are typically larger and not as even as crocodile. They use it in many of their small leather goods, but it is STUNNING!!!

June 22nd, 2008

We will take some pictures of how much it can hold easily. I carry an iPhone, so I will place that in it and lip gloss and cards so you can all see. It is quite spacious!

That is a lovely wallet! I haven’t ever LOVED Hermes, but thst might change my mind…

Oh thank you Megs! I did not know that. It shows the quality of Hermes that as this Mississippi Alligator has larger scales - look how even it looks on the wallet! I’m even more surprised that they would use this on smaller leather good, rather than the bags themselves. Interesting.

Thank you again for the lesson! And for showing me something I didn’t know I now cannot live without! :wink:

congrats on your buy! the color and skin is just divine!

Its stunning. Do you think you’ll use it as a clutch by itself? I’d be afraid of it swimming aound in any bag other than your Hermes. It will look wonderfully chic in there.
Congratulations on a savvy purchase!

mamamia! what a wallet!

That is absolutely stunning! Congrats, Megs! If I could get that skin in shiny/patent black, I would jump at the chance and use it as an evening clutch for all my black-tie events!

Megs, do you plan on using this as an everyday wallet or as a clutch? Please let us know how the leather holds up, it looks divine and should be just as sturdy as everything else Hermes makes. Congrats again, you have amazing taste! :)

Do they have one in Bordeaux? Will get it even if I will never have that much in cash inside my wallet ever!!! :lol: It is sooo beautiful!

June 23rd, 2008

I am going to use this as a clutch. Vlad and I will photograph it today with my cell phone, lip gloss, and cards inside to show how spacious it is!

Wow she is a beauty! Great color (I love a colored wallet), love the exotic alligator-crocs. I guess it goes back to my childhood and my stepmom’s croc handbag. I loved that bag. Would die for it today. Great photos, too. I’m just green with envy.

So…does that thing go for about $10k? It’s beautiful, yes, but wow. I could get a couple of credit cards paid off with what it cost.

OH GOD. That is beautiful! The orange color is so vibrant and quite possibly one of the most beautiful things I have ever laid my eyes on. It’s absolutely gorgeous. It has definitely made my love for Hermes skyrocket to an all-time high.

Just when I couldn’t get enough of their Birkin bags, they came out with this. It’s incredibly, incredibly beautiful. The leather is absolute perfection. This wallet is so delectable! And the photos are astounding! It really brought out the beauty of the wallet in such a beautiful way. I love it!

Congratulations on the purchase. Enjoy her well! I cannot wait to see how it holds up. Take care. :razz:

I love your wallet =) What an amazing choice. I wouldn’t have thought about asking for that colour in croc. I went out to Hermes yesterday to ask about that wallet. SA agreed with me that you have fantastic taste.

Everything (positive) has been said already and I do feel kind of stupid for posting my congrats to this beautiful piece so late, but hey - better late than never. It truly is a classy piece of art. I´m new to this forum and very glad I found it :smile: I´ve been strolling and reading through this place and I really appreciate your efforts, knowledge and obvious love of beautiful accessories.

This might be the most beautiful wallet I have ever laid my eyes on. The colour is an outstanding knock-out and I can really feel the touch of the leather. Congratulations!

September 7th, 2008

Beautiful! I don’t know if I’d be too crazy on the straps that have to be undone every time you open/close the bag, but it’s beautiful.

Have anyone ever purchased Hermes handbags and scarfs from http://www.edhardychina.com ? why are they so cheap?

October 10th, 2008
looloo

holy shmoly! what a beauty… sigh. one of these days…

oh, and mechele, if it’s so cheap, it’s fake. in the world of designer handbags, if it seems to good to be true, it is. the fact that it’s “edhardychina” selling “hermes” should be a dead giveaway.

The Hermes Kelly Long Wallet is great! Anything Hermes is worth having. I love all the Hermes line. The wallet is great for busy moms or the working women. It is perfect to carry your must haves and not be toting around a large purse. It is even great for those who like to go to clubs or a nice restaurant. It can fit perfectly in your lap or you can hold it in your hand on the dance floor.

OMG guys, it’s so pretty! I suggest everyone buy it NOW. I have it in red, black, blue and orange! It is absolute! With the Kelly bag!
