Ostrich Kelly Longue Wallet Rouge Vif

The Hermès Kelly Longue (Long) Wallet in Rouge Vif Ostrich is a premier statement accessory that serves as both a spacious continental wallet and an elegant evening clutch. This piece is highly coveted for its vibrant color saturation and the distinctive texture of its exotic skin, mimicking the iconic design of the Kelly bag.

Core Design & Material Construction

• Material (Ostrich): Crafted from authentic Ostrich leather, recognizable by the raised “quill follicles” that create a unique, dotted texture across the surface. Ostrich is prized for being one of the most durable and supple exotic leathers, naturally resistant to moisture and known for holding brilliant dyes like Rouge Vif.

• Color (Rouge Vif): A legendary Hermès “vivid red” (Color Code: 53) with bright, warm undertones. On ostrich skin, this color achieves a deep, multifaceted brilliance.

• Hardware: This specific model is finished with Silver hardware, including the signature Kelly turn-lock and sangles (straps).

• Interior Lining: The interior is typically lined with matching Rouge Vif goatskin (Chèvre), which is lightweight and highly resistant to scratches.

Specifications & Utility

• Dimensions: Approximately 19.7 cm L x 11.4 cm H x 2.5 cm D (roughly 7.75″ x 4.5″ x 1″).

• Internal Layout:

  • Twelve credit card slots divided into two panels.

  • Two large bill compartments for full-length currency or receipts.

  • Two flat patch pockets for additional organization.

  • One central zippered change purse featuring a signature Cadena (lock) zipper pull.

• Capacity: Due to its large “Longue” format, it can comfortably accommodate a smartphone (without a bulky case), making it a popular choice for use as a clutch.
