Material

Togo Leather

The Haut à Courroies is the bag the Birkin comes from, designed in the 1890s to carry riding saddles and boots. It stands taller and squarer than a Birkin of the same width, with shorter double rolled handles and a higher belted profile. Étain is a medium pewter gray, cooler than Étoupe, and on Togo's textured grain it holds even with moderate structure. Palladium hardware keeps the neutral cool. Collector's Insight: The HAC 40 is made in far smaller numbers...
