1｜Introduction

The investment value of Hermès primarily lies in several aspects such as brand reputation, limited editions, quality and durability, demand in the second-hand market, and trends and status symbols. The investment value of Birkin bags has been increasing year by year, especially for limited editions or styles made from special materials. Hermès is renowned for its craftsmanship, with each product meticulously crafted using high-quality materials. This durability not only allows these products to stand the test of time but also often makes them heirlooms with increasing inheritance value.

In terms of the second-hand market, there continues to be strong demand for Hermès products, with the resale prices of many items often far exceeding their original prices. This phenomenon makes Hermès a stable investment choice, especially against the backdrop of the continuously growing luxury goods market. Many consumers are now seeking Birkin bags with historical significance and unique stories. Vintage Birkin bags are often more collectible as they are not just handbags but also symbols of their times, leading to a continuous rise in demand for them in the market. Finally, owning Hermès products is not just a symbol of wealth but also a reflection of taste. This sense of social status recognition makes consumers more willing to pay high prices, further enhancing their investment value.

2 | Birkin Bag

Hermès Birkin bags are considered a paragon in the world of luxury goods, with their investment value particularly outstanding. When the Birkin bag was first introduced, its price was around $16,000 HKD. However, with the growth of the brand and increasing demand, prices have significantly risen. Currently, in the market, official prices typically start at $67,000 HKD and above.

We would like to recommend the Birkin 30 and 35 to you. Both of these sizes are highly suitable for investment as well as personal use. The demand for these two sizes in the second-hand market continues to grow, especially for the 30 size. Due to its better fit for everyday use, the resale price of the Birkin 30 often sees a larger increase. Over time, the increasing consumer demand for these sizes has led to a rise in their market value, making them a popular choice.

Kelly bag is one of Hermès' classic handbags, renowned for its elegant design and exceptional craftsmanship. Initially introduced in the 1930s, the bag is named after Hollywood actress Grace Kelly, who was often photographed carrying it in the 1950s, making it an icon in the fashion world. When first released, the price of the Kelly bag was around $8000 HKD. With the growth of the brand and increasing demand, the price has significantly risen. In the second-hand market, prices for certain rare styles can reach as high as $1,500,000 HKD or more.

We recommend the Hermès Kelly 28 bag as a great investment choice. The Kelly 28 bags hold their value well and can be resold at high prices, making them a wise investment for collectors and investors. The Kelly 28 size is perfect for daily use as it can hold many items and can be conveniently carried on the elbow through the shoulder strap or handle, a feature that many designer handbags do not offer.

This handbag is crafted from gold Epsom leather and features gold hardware, which is widely favored over other hardware colors in Hermès designs. Epsom leather is particularly popular in the market because its colors are more vibrant than most other leathers, and it is known for its scratch-resistant and easy-to-clean properties, making the handbag more durable and easy to maintain.

This combination offers a distinctive look different from the classic gold or palladium hardware typically seen.

5 | Brand Revenue Increase

Now is the best time to purchase Hermès bags. In 2024, even the luxury industry leader LVMH struggled to escape the trend of declining performance in the last quarter; other luxury goods groups have also indicated a downturn in market and reduced profitability. However, Hermès has stood out in adversity with remarkable financial reports, demonstrating the company's successful resistance to the downturn in the luxury goods market. Revenue in the last quarter grew by 11.3%, reaching $3.99 billion, in line with analysts' expectations. Despite various variables such as global economy, geopolitics, and exchange rates, the company maintains its outlook for mid-term revenue growth.

Hermès focuses on the wealthiest segment of the pyramid, whose consumption is usually less affected by economic fluctuations, enabling the company to grow in a downturn. In addition, its popular bags are in high demand, with long waiting lists for purchases, allowing Hermès to maintain a certain customer base even in a downturn.
