What’s the difference between an Haut à Courroies and a Birkin? It’s all in the size – the HAC is a taller bag, and was usually made in larger sizes from 40cm wide up to 55cm, although special order smaller versions (28cm, 32cm & 36cm) are available. The drop of the handles is less than those of a Birkin, making it more of a bag to carry in the hand rather than over the arm – thus its desirability as a travel bag. Similar to the Birkin in every other beautiful detail, it features a roomier interior, an interior patch pocket and a zippered compartment If you buy an HAC, you are buying a piece of Hermès history.
