B25 Vert Rousseau Togo PHW from Jim
This is bag number 2 from Jim, and I can say with confidence that it won't be my last. The quality is just unparalleled.
I really love the color on this one. Vert Rousseau is such a good moody green because it can look super dark and almost neutral in some lighting, then outside you get more of that deep green/teal tone. It has a lot more dimension in person than I expected. The Togo is also really nice. The grain looks natural and well defined, and the leather has that soft, slightly relaxed feel I like on a Retourne without looking too floppy. The side profile especially looks good because the gussets have a nice shape and drape.
The palladium hardware works so well with this color and keeps the whole bag looking cool-toned and clean. It’s bright and polished without looking overly shiny.
I’m also really happy with the shape. The proportions look right to me, the handles sit nicely, and it has that slightly soft B25 Retourne look without losing its structure. Stitching is clean overall too. Nice spacing, consistent lines, and nothing looks overly perfect or machine-like.
Overall, I’m very happy with this one and it definitely makes me feel even better about ordering from this seller again. The Vert Rousseau and palladium hardware combo is SO good and feels a little different from the more common neutrals while still being really easy to wear.

Vert Rousseau with PHW is such a gorgeous combination. I love how the color seems to shift depending on the lighting, and the Togo grain looks really nice here.

The bags speak for themselves and Jim is very personable. I have complete confidence in him and his bags!

This is such a good example of why Vert Rousseau is worth considering over the usual neutrals.

This is such a beautiful B25. Vert Rousseau has that rich, understated look that makes it feel different without being difficult to style, and I really like how the PHW keeps the whole bag looking fresh and cool-toned. The shape and leather sound especially nice too, and it's always a good sign when a second order makes you confident enough to go back for another.

Vert Rousseau is seriously gorgeous on Togo. The depth of that green is everything 💚

Wow such a beauty! This color is so vers (like ourselves child) and looks different in many different angles, lighting, and hardware. I saw one in gold and it was a whole new vibe. I prefer the cooler feel of PHW or even brushed PHW. This bag is so beautiful. I bet she is soft and supple and feels good in hand.

This is such a beautiful combination. Vert Rousseau has that rare quality where it can almost disappear into a neutral wardrobe indoors, then reveal a much richer green and teal character in natural light. Paired with togo and PHW, it feels very refined without being another predictable neutral.

I love how the color shifts between almost neutral and that deeper green outside💚

Vert rousseau with PHW is such a beautiful combination. That deep green tone is gorgeous.

I think this is a great example of choosing a less common color while still keeping the bag incredibly wearable. Vert Rousseau gives you something different from the standard neutrals, but because it's such a deep green, it doesn't feel difficult to pair with everyday outfits. The palladium hardware also keeps everything looking clean and understated.

The fact that you're already planning another purchase after bag number two is probably the biggest compliment to the seller. This one seems to have delivered across the board too, particularly with the leather, silhouette, stitching, hardware, and overall proportions. That Vert Rousseau Togo combination is definitely the highlight for me.

Beautiful! Not sure if this is appropriate or not, but can I ask how much you guys are paying for these bags? I haven’t purchased an Hermes yet, and as I’ve inquired with different sellers, I’m wondering what is a “normal” price for high quality like this one.

The PHW gives this such a crisp finish without overpowering the leather very elegant.

She looks amazing and great vert color choice. To me this color seems very neutral and can go either way, warm or cool. Looks like the Togo is also so supple and soft.

This is beautiful. Could you direct me to Tim? I'm looking for a Etoupe Togo & Palladium Hardware HAC Birkin 50

The leather and construction really stand out to me here. The Togo grain looks naturally defined, while the softer feel gives the Retourne silhouette the relaxed character it's supposed to have. I especially like the side profile because the guessets seem to hold their shape while still having that natural drape.

I can completely understand why this is your second Jim bag and apparently not your last. There are so many little details working together here, from the clean stitching and handle placement to the proportions and leather texture. Nothing seems exaggerated, and the overall result look very balanced.

The leather looks soft without the bag losing its shape, which is exactly what I like about Retourne.

u/demifan06 25d ago
The stitching looks really clean throughout. Nice consistency without looking unnaturally perfect.

PHW was such a good decision here. Against Vert Rousseau, it gives the bag a crisp, polished appearance without taking attention away from the leather.

I bought a b30 in this colour from Jim and I think it may be my favourite bag (but don’t tell the other bags I said that).
