Hermès Bag Sizes: Dimensions of Ten Icons in Centimeters and Inches
Every size of the Birkin, Kelly, Constance, Picotin Lock, Evelyne, Lindy, Garden Party, Bolide, Herbag and Jypsière, with the sizes the resale market offers most.
As of October 19, 2026, Hermès names most of its bags after the approximate width of the base in centimeters: a Birkin 25 is about 25 × 20 × 13 cm (9.8 × 7.9 × 5.1 in) and a Kelly 28 about 28 × 22 × 10 cm (11.0 × 8.7 × 3.9 in). The name is a rounded size, not a measurement. Hermès itself lists the Evelyne III 29 at 28 × 28 × 9.5 cm. In our October 18, 2026 resale snapshot, the Birkin 30 is the most offered Birkin size (39% of size-identified listings), while the Birkin 25 leads among new-condition listings (52%).
This page gathers the dimensions published by Hermès where we could read them, then by auction houses, collector guides and owners. Each figure is labeled by source type. MyQuotaBag is independent and not affiliated with Hermès.
A few things worth knowing
- Dimensions are written width × height × depth. Width is the base of the bag.
- Hermès product pages give dimensions for the Picotin Lock, Evelyne, Garden Party, Herbag and Mini Jypsière. For the Birkin, Kelly, Constance, Lindy and Bolide, we rely on auction-house and collector guides.
- Published figures for the same size often differ by 1 to 2 cm. Hermès notes that handmade bags may vary.
- We found no weight published by Hermès. The few empty weights below come from owners who weighed their own bags.
- Smaller sizes dominate new-condition resale listings; larger sizes dominate pre-owned listings.
- Inches are converted from centimeters by us and rounded to one decimal.

How Hermès names its sizes
Most Hermès bags carry a number: the approximate width of the base in centimeters. Older models and some current ones also use French abbreviations: TPM (très petit modèle, very small), PM (petit modèle, small), MM (moyen modèle, medium), GM (grand modèle, large) and TGM (très grand modèle, very large). Mini and Micro are used for the smallest formats, such as the Mini Kelly 20, the Mini Constance 18 and the Micro Picotin Lock 14.
These letters are not consistent across models. The Evelyne 16 is the TPM and the Evelyne 29 the PM. On the Garden Party, the 30 is called TPM and the 36 PM in recent guides, while older guides call the 36 MM or GM. On the Herbag, the 39 is called GM by some and MM by others. Always check the number and the measured width.

What collectors ask for most
No source publishes requests by size, so these are expert readings, not counts. Sotheby's describes the Birkin 25 as the most sought-after Birkin size and the Birkin 30 as the most popular and versatile (March 2026). Its mid-2026 review names the Birkin 20, Birkin 25, Mini Kelly 20 and Kelly 25 as drawing strong demand. Separate Sotheby's guides call the Constance 18 the most in-demand Constance, the Mini Lindy the most sought-after Lindy and the Garden Party 30 the most popular everyday size.
Our data shows the same tilt toward small sizes among new-condition listings: the Birkin 25 makes up 52% of new Birkins, the Constance 18 85% of new Constances and the Mini Lindy 88% of new Lindys. Pre-owned listings lean the other way. The Birkin 35 is 38% of pre-owned Birkins but only 10% of new ones.
Empty weights: what is actually known
We found no weight published by Hermès. Three owners report a Togo Birkin 30 at 805, 860 and 893 g on kitchen scales; these are single weighings. One owner reports a Togo Birkin 35 at about 1,122 g without its lock and clochette and nearly 1.3 kg with them. One owner lists a Kelly 28 at about 780 g without its strap and 836 g with it, leather not stated. Another weighed a Lindy 30 in Clemence at about 1,050 g. We found no reliable figure for the other sizes.
Where the sources disagree
Guides disagree on the Mini Kelly II: PurseBop (2017) gives 20 × 12 × 6 cm, Brag My Bag (2026) 20 × 16 × 10 cm. Constance 18 heights range from 14 to 15 cm. PurseBop gives the Lindy 30 as 30 × 19 × 16 cm and the Lindy 34 as 34 × 20 × 7.5 cm, a depth that looks like an error. Another gives the Bolide 1923 25 a height of 29 cm instead of about 19 cm. For the Jypsière, a July 2026 guide says the 31, 34 and 37 are discontinued while another still lists them.
