I have both the Birkin 30 and Kelly 28 in epsom black gold hardware, if you could keep one bag over the other which one would it be? (Don’t say both lol) I need to make a decision.

I need more info... do you have any other Kelly or birkin bags? Which do you use more frequently? What will give you more diversity in your bag collection?
Personally I am not a fan of Birkins in Epsom. Since your K28 is Sellier style, Epsom leather is well suited for it, so I would keep the Kelly. But that’s just me. I love Sellier Ks. This is really all about personal preference. Bs and Ks are very different in terms of style and functional. Which one fits your lifestyle better?
Which one do you use more? I use my 30 Birkin and 28 kelly for different purposes. If I really had to choose I’d pick the 30 Birkin as it’s my everyday bag. Do you have others?
I currently have an alligator K28 Retourne, constance, Evelyn.. I do use my kelly more than the Birkin
same here. I heavily prefer kelly in sellier nowadays as well. And epsom is the perfect leather for a sellier kelly, whereas birkins I prefer “soft” leather such as barenia.
This! While my heart prefers a Birkin, with these specs, I voted that you keep the Kelly.
If both had been in Togo, I would have voted to keep the Birkin.
Tough one...I think I'd keep the Kelly because you do use it more and like other posters I prefer a Birkin in a skin other than epsom. In the future if you want a Birkin, purchase one in a different skin and color to add some diversity to your collection.
I like Epsom.....I’d keep the Birkin......I’m a bit biased though as I find the Kelly to be a pain to get in and out of, especially in sellier.
I'd keep the Kelly too. I love the epsom in sellier. And the sellier can be dressed up or down. For a B, I think another leather would be preferred.
