What is the difference between the replica Hermes Kelly Togo and Kelly Epsom?

Hello everyone, this blog will share with you the topic of the high-end Hermes handmade bags. The Kelly series handbags can be made of two kinds of leather, including Togo leather and Epsom leather. These two leathers have always been the most popular and most used leathers in Hermes. And both leathers are made of bull leather, but they are taken from the parts of the "cow", including the post-processing process. Therefore, Togo leather and Epsom leather have two different feel and two styles.

Is the leather used in high-end Hermes replicas consistent with the original ones? This depends on what version you buy and what price you define. There are many manufacturers on the market that make Hermes replica bags, but the versions that this store has been promoting are semi-handmade and pure handmade, not the top version or the full steel version. You need to understand that the Hermes Kelly and Birkin and other bags sold in the counter are all pure handmade, and the Hermes high-end replicas also have pure handmade and semi-handmade versions, so you can learn about the related products of this store.

Due to the difference in versions, many merchants in the high-end imitation market sell products that are "fake", that is, using some cowhide produced in China to imitate the effect of genuine leather. In fact, as long as the price is right and there is profit margin, Hermes imitation bags can 100% use leather from the counters, but the price is expensive, plus the cost of pure handmade production is high, a high-end Hermes imitation is also very expensive in the replica market, after all, it can achieve 98% authenticity of the counter quality.

The difference between semi-handmade and pure handmade is whether the production process reaches the original quality.

Semi-manual production involves machine sewing, manual cutting of leather, splicing and then oiling. Hardware buckles are made using machine scales. Semi-manual production costs are relatively low and are generally completed by machine locomotives.

Pure handmade mainly involves a high-end Hermes handbag that is 1:1 replica of the original product in all aspects, whether it is cutting, splicing, oil edge, stitching, hardware, or scale, it is 100% handmade.

What is the difference between Hermes Kelly Togo and Kelly Epsom?
The biggest difference is the appearance structure, which is caused by the use of different leathers. The hardness, texture and three-dimensional sense of the leather will be different. The second difference is the stitching structure. Togo is the inner stitching, while Epsom is the outer stitching.

Kelly Togo: Inner seams

Kelly Epsom: External seams

Advantages of Togo leather and Epsom leather:

Togo leather: adult bull leather, with a surface texture similar to lychee grain, relatively large grain, moderately soft and hard leather feel, easy to maintain its original shape, scratch-resistant, and wear-resistant, so it is chosen by many female consumers.

Epsom leather: normal cowhide, the leather is tough and has fine lines. The fine lines are artificially processed later. The leather can give the whole bag a three-dimensional sense. It is light and durable, and it is also easy to clean.

Conclusion:

The difference between the two is the construction of the outer and inner seams. Generally, few consumers use Epsom leather for inner seams, and no consumers use Togo leather for seams. Therefore, the same handbag produced by the two brands presents two styles. But I personally prefer the texture of Kelly Epsom leather, which is full of three-dimensionality and looks more energetic than Togo leather. This is the analysis of the use of two kinds of leather in the high-end Hermes Kelly. Thank you for your browsing and support. See you in the next blog!
