Hermès Kelly 22 Ado Backpack Vert Vertigo Alligator Gold Hardware
Hermès Kelly 22 Ado Backpack Vert Vertigo Alligator Gold Hardware
This bag backpack is done in Alligator with two adjustable shoulder straps, a flap and turnlock closure, and Gold hardware. The Kelly Ado II, just released, is a subtle re-edition of the original Kelly Ado, produced from around 1997 into the early 2000's. The re-edition of this much loved backpack version of the Kelly bag waivers from the original in few ways, most notably, the leather shoulder straps have replaced the canvas originals which were prone to fade over time.
Retourne construction involves turning the bag inside-out during assembly, producing softer, rounded edges. The 22cm Kelly is a scaled format that adjusts the original proportions. Interior is lined in matching Chevre leather with one zip pocket and two slip pockets. Single top handle with detachable shoulder strap.

Collector's Insight: Alligator production is constrained by raw material scarcity and limited annual output. Allocation within Hermès exotic bag production is among the most selective in the house.
Resale Insight: The market demand for Kelly bags, particularly in the 22cm size, continues to outpace supply. This specific configuration is a staple for collectors seeking a balance of heritage and contemporary style.
