The Sizes
The Birkin is available in 4 different sizes from the adorable “mini” version to the biggest travel size. Many aficionados refer to each bag size in short hand with the letter “B” followed by the length in centimeters (ex. B35)
Birkin Sizes:
Birkin 25 (B25)
Birkin 30 (B30)
Birkin 35 (B35)
Birkin 40 (B40)
The most common Birkin sizes are the B30 and the B35. The B25 is a hard size to find and is usually only offered to VIP clients. It is more commonly available in Asia, but it is quickly gaining status in other parts of the world. After conversations with Hermes insiders and aficionados we found out that the B25 size gained popularity among Asian women partly because it doesn’t overwhelm small statures. The B40 is hard to find as well, but it is usually less requested. The B40 is more suitable for travel instead of an everyday handbag.
For our comparison, we will be using the Birkin 25, Birkin 30, and Birkin 35.

The Birkin
Who could have imagined that one of the most coveted objects of recent decades would be born in the sky, in 1984, on a flight from Paris to London?
British actress Jane Birkin, sitting next to Jean-Louis Dumas, Executive Chairman of Hermès (1978-2006), was complaining that she couldn’t find a bag suitable for her needs as a young mother.
A born creator with a keen eye, he immediately sketched a supple and spacious rectangular holdall with a burnished flap and saddle stitching.
