2. Hermes replica cooperated with Apple
Hermès recently released the new Apple Replica Watch Hermès Series 8. Hermès presents a variety of colors with a new “lucky horse” dial, which occasionally blinks, once again highlighting the importance of this series in the Hermès replica watch collection.In addition, Hermès has also collaborated with Apple to launch a series of new pictogram leather AirTags featuring bicycles, boats, or houses.
Increase production through craftsman training and infrastructure
Hermès announced the opening of a new leather workshop in Lyon, its second in Auvergne.Craftsman training for the new workshop will begin in November this year.
3. Lawsuit with Skechers
Hermès was recently sued by Skechers in Manhattan Federal Court in New York State, alleging that the appearance of the soles of its Eclair and Envol sneakers infringed on design patents.Although the possibility of legal losses in this situation is unclear, it is important to note that the disputed intellectual property rights are the similarity between patented designs and appearances, which is different from the previously discussed matter of counterfeit goods, which focuses on copyrights and trademarks.To better understand this issue, there is a good overview in Fashion Law.For documents from the New York court, see Skechers U.S.A v Hermès International.
4. The price of Hermes replica has increased
Hermès will raise prices “from 5% to 10%” in the coming months, after announcing that its third-quarter sales increased by about 24%, reaching more than $3 billion.The reasons for the price increase include rising production costs and currency fluctuations (as is often the case).To be honest, Hermès will raise prices quite regularly, usually around January or February, and the percentage of price increases is never completely comprehensive.
The price increase of Hermès replica often varies from industry to industry, and even often varies from products within the industry (for example, not all leather bags have the same increase rate).The chatter seems to be due to the fact that Eric du Halgouet, the chief financial officer of Hermès, recently told reporters in a phone call that this increase had occurred, and other luxury brands (Van Cleef & Arpels, Cartier, Chanel) have also recently raised prices;however, no details have been given, and no one has been able to determine exactly when and where this will apply (as I will study in my next article, the price in France is about 30% lower than that in the United States, and the price in Asia is about 30% higher than that in the United States, so there are huge price differences between different countries). Therefore, before we know more details, it is impossible to confirm who will be affected by this expected increase.
5. New workshops
This new production base is Hermès’ 22nd leather goods workshop, which will open in Puy-de-Dôme in 2024 and will eventually employ 250 artisans who have been trained in the brand’s superior techniques.
In addition, Hermès is expanding the training provided by its Hermès School of Expertise (Hermès Apprentice Training School).L’Ecole opened in September 2021 and was initially used to train artisans to obtain a diploma in leather goods.The scope of training is expanding to include qualifications in cutting and sewing.Currently, they are training 450 new artisans.
The press release also added that since 2010, Hermès replicas has opened 9 leather workshops and employed 4,300 craftsmen.In addition, it is planned to open 4 more such workshops in the near future, and they are actively recruiting.
