I bought the Hermes Cityback about half a year ago and have been using it on a daily basis. Part of the Spring/Summer 2016 collection of Hermes, it's a limited edition piece and Herme's first foray into a backpack for men.
Being Hermes's first ever men's backpack, the design is amazing. It's subtle, sexy, and incredibly comfortable. The straps are my favorite. Too many backpacks out have incredible designs on the backpack itself, but forget about the straps. Not Hermes-- the straps are boldly cut, tapering and conforming to the shoulder and chest area. The results of this design are an incredible sleek visual presentation and comfort while carrying.
Of course the leather is amazing as always with Hermes. The new color though, Plomb (French for lead), is the main talking point. Plomb is like the old Hermes Graphite except a touch darker with a blue tint versus Graphite's brown tint. As of now, it's one of my favorite colors from Hermes. It's masculine with a stealthy modern look.
A few things of note I found strange or interesting about this backpack. The backpack has a very large capacity. However if you load it to it's brink, you won't be able to close the backpack using the buttons-- using only the zippers. The interior is lined with typical Hermes chevron pattern with one pouch. There is another zipper on one side for easy access to item, though personally I rarely use it except maybe to stuff an ipad or socks.
Final Score: 9/10
