Sa just told me the new Kelly's being made (just starting production now) will not have the double-loop on the handle - they're going back to the single loop...............ABOUT TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:yahoo:
 
Please explain the double and single loop. I don't have a Kelly but want one! Thanks!
birkinbaby, see pics attached:
1st pic - Kelly with single loop ring at the handles
2nd pic - Kelly with double loop ring at the handles

The double loop rings on Kellys were introduced by Hermes (when?? -can someone help? ) so that it's easier for wearers to hook the shoulder strap :flowers:

Hi Gigi,
Thank you so much for posting the pictures and making the indications. I had not even noticed the extra loops! Then again, I don't have a Kelly (yet :P )

So if the strap loops come off, what does that mean? No more shoulder straps?

PS: I've been wondering if Paris stopped making the JPG shoulder birkin to make room for all the new bags coming out ....
