Which leather is best for a Kelly?
1 Answer

There is no single best leather for a Hermès Kelly handbag, so you should choose the option that appeals most to you. Over the years, the French luxury brand has made the Kelly out of a variety of materials. Two of the most common leathers are Togo, a lighter calfskin leather, and Epsom, a more rigid embossed calfskin. Shop a collection of Hermès Kelly bags on 1stDibs.
