Whether you’re an active sports enthusiast or not, these key rings from Hermès will definitely make you sit right up and take notice. It’s fun, it’s new, and something completely different from anything you will possibly have in your Hermès lineup. Unless you’re one of those who did in fact purchase the Hermès leather baseball set from 2014, or that gorgeous blue leather basketball back in 2013.

Coming in many colour combinations, these sports-inspired key rings are made to look exactly like a baseball and basketball respectively. Intricate leather detailing has been put into each piece, with precise sewing coming together to mimic the stitches on a baseball, and even more cutting and aligning went into forming the shape of a basketball on the other. Each key ring also comes with contrasting leather colours with stitches detailing and the 6 cm leather pull strap. Finished with two palladium-plated rings on either end, all that’s left is for you is to pile on the keys and you’re good to go.

Now, for those of you who prefer something bigger, take a look at the Basketball Change Purse, which comes in a great number of colours. Made of Evercolor Calfskin, these purses have a lightly grained texture and great depth that makes for a great SLG. Measuring 11 cm across, this one is also guaranteed to fit a good amount of coins, and even folded notes if you so need it to.

While the Baseball Key Ring and Basketball Key Ring (SGD1550) are now available in our local boutiques, you’ll have to wait a little longer for the Basketball Change Purse, which hasn’t arrived on our shores yet.
