After years of speculation, Apple has finally released its highly anticipated AirTag line. It’s essentially a wireless tracker that you can attach to your frequently misplaced personal belongings and locate using Apple’s Find My App on the iPhone. And the Apple AirTag Hermès series—the Key Ring, Bag Charm, Luggage Tag and Travel Tag—feature designs inspired by the French brand’s horse-racing token holder in the early 20th century in Barénia or Swift calfskin.
