Could This Be The Ugliest Birkin Yet?: Hermes Launches New Men's HAC Backpack

The Hermes men's bag market might not be as strong as the potential across women's clothing, but there has been a certain demand for many years. In past seasons, Hermes has launched new handbags predominantly for women's clothing and so this season finally caters to men. The brand has given a big makeover to the HAC style bag that hasn’t seen updates for many years. It has been transformed into a younger chest bag style so you can wear it like a Dior's men's Saddle Bag. Hermes bag design is reliable, with a branded Birkin button. The day the HAC Backpack hit the shelves, it became a hot topic. However, it didn’t dodge scrutiny. After its launch on the US website, many people strongly criticized it as an "ugly bag".

Despite the controversy, many people admire the Birkin's design. It’s definitely bringing a mixture of perceptions. Through pictures of people repping the bag, it certainly portray’s the model’s benefits. First of all, the Birkin has to be carried on one arm, whilst the Kelly is equipped with a shoulder strap. Further to this, the HAC Backpack can totally free your hands, with a capacity similar to that of a 25 Birkin. The price stands at around $65,000. (Rough calculations are for reference only), some people have successfully started directly on the official website of the United States, which can be said to be the easiest "Birkin" to start with.

Moreover, it is much easier to match with outfits. An ideal pairing would be wearing it with a sweater like pictured above, which offers a casual look. On the contrary, traditional Birkins are really like Anita Yuen said: "If you have a beautiful bag, you need to dress it up to match it. ", I personally think that the HAC Backpack is actually more cost-effective and easier to use than the general Birkin.
