Hermès Blue Nuit Togo Cityslide Waistbag PM — Brushed Palladium Hardware, 2022
The Hermès Cityslide PM in Blue Nuit Togo leather from 2022 carries a significance beyond its material specification alone: this is a final production year example of a silhouette that Hermès discontinued in 2021–2022, making it one of the last Cityslides to leave the atelier. For collectors who understand the value of end-of-production pieces, a 2022 Cityslide in Blue Nuit Togo represents a closed chapter — a bag that can no longer be ordered, sourced from Hermès directly, or produced in any quantity.
Blue Nuit — Hermès's Deepest Navy
Blue Nuit — night blue — is Hermès's most saturated and deepest navy colourway: a rich, ink-dark blue with subtle undertones that shift between indigo and near-black depending on light conditions. It is a colour of immediate sophistication and total versatility — dark enough to work across formal and casual contexts without adjustment, deep enough to read as a considered statement rather than a conventional navy, and complex enough to reward close attention in a way that simpler blues cannot. On Togo calfskin's naturally pebbled, matte surface, Blue Nuit achieves a depth and tonal complexity that smooth leathers cannot replicate — the grain catching light at different angles and creating a surface that appears almost dimensional in its colour variation.
For buyers who find standard navy too conventional and black too stark, Blue Nuit in Togo is the precise answer — and on the Cityslide PM's compact, structured form, it presents as a bag of immediate authority without demanding attention.
Togo — The Structured Cityslide Leather
While many Cityslide configurations were produced in Clémence, Togo calfskin gives the PM a slightly firmer, more structured character — the pebbled grain more pronounced, the overall form holding its shape with greater rigidity. In the PM format, Togo's additional structure produces a bag that sits cleanly against the body without the slight softening that Clémence introduces — a more precise, more architectural result that suits Blue Nuit's depth and authority.
Brushed Palladium — The Coolest Hardware Pairing
The brushed palladium hardware (BPHW) is the ideal pairing for Blue Nuit's cool, deep tone — its matte silver surface complementing the leather's blue-black depth without introducing reflective contrast. The brushed finish keeps the hardware in its supporting role, maintaining the bag's overall impression of quiet, considered luxury.
2022 — The Final Generation
A 2022 production date places this Cityslide in the last year of the silhouette's existence — Hermès quietly retired the Cityslide in 2021–2022 without formal announcement. Since discontinuation, secondary market demand and pricing have risen consistently as collectors who missed the bag during production have come to understand its significance. A final-year example in a refined colourway like Blue Nuit Togo is precisely the configuration that serious buyers prioritise.
