1:1 Comparison: Hermès Lindy
We’ll be reviewing the Hermès Lindy side by side
with Thierry Studio’s version.
Hermès Lindy 26 – Authentic Invoice
📌 2023 B Stamp
[Front View]
Left – Hermès / Right – Thierry Studio
The Lindy is crafted from Clémence leather.
Clémence leather is quite similar to Togo, with one key difference:
✔ Togo comes from male calfskin
✔ Clémence comes from adult cowhide
What makes Clémence special?
✅ Highly scratch-resistant
✅ Exceptionally soft and supple
This softness is what gives the Lindy its
signature slouchy shape in the center.

While the front view highlights the soft,
natural drape of Clémence leather,
the side view emphasizes the structured rectangular shape
that remains intact even when carried on the arm.

Our handle stitching details are also flawlessly replicated.
[Back View]

When viewed from the back, the Lindy 26 forms
a perfect isosceles trapezoid shape.
Why is this shape important?
✔ Lower-quality versions often fail to replicate
the smooth transition from the top to the base.
✔ The biggest issue with lower-tier products is that the
angle from the top to the bottom is too vertical
rather than gradually sloping.
Make sure to check this carefully!

Due to the protective film covering the hardware,
it may appear slightly matte.
Keep that in mind when comparing.
Interestingly, the small square box next to -HERMÈS-PARIS-
appears slightly distorted on the authentic piece.
