Hermes Kelly Pochette Current Leather Options and Availability?

[Daosabao]

I'm concerned that the prices for the Kelly Pochette will keep going higher and higher and I would never get a KP within a reasonable range I don't love swift as it can slouch badly over time, but I can live with it if ever I get offered a KP!

I understand how you feel. I still won’t go preloved or reseller now, because the prices are insane. Have you told your Sa clearly that you are willing to wait for one? Do you need to use 1:1 ratio quota to get this kp?

I’m no super vip either (no wait, shouldn’t we be all vips at Hermès??) but what I can tell you, like many members have shared too, it’s not impossible just be patient and wait. It will come one day, and you have to keep up the spending as you wait.

But well, if the right color and hardware comes along at resellers or eBay, and you can accept the premium now, by all means go for it.

I see that most current KPs are made of swift. There used to be some Epsom ones but I don’t see it in recent stamps.
I am based in UK and I don’t find KP hard to get. I was offered a choice between Lime and Deep blue in Aug but I turned it down due to personal preference.

I will not suggest buying it from reseller as the current bag prices are just INSANE.
Prices from reseller used to makes sense as normally premium for popular colour and sizes is about 1:1 (sometimes less). It saves time and effort compared to buying it directly from store. However, I won’t consider the reseller route if the price remain as it is.

May I ask which shop you got the offer from?

It is extremely limited and therefore hard to get, especially because they’re not quota bags so the vvvips can be offered them with no loss to their two quota bags a year. Current standard leather selections I believe are limited to only swift. Box leather ones do exist but those would be push orders and thus impossible to predict. They also come in exotics. If your SA is saying your chances aren’t good, I’d take her word for it and either wait patiently or try the secondary market.

My SA told me that they are quota bags, was that not the same as what you were told? She also said they are very hard to get because they are quota bags.

In the USA, in non exotic leather, they are not quota bags.

Oh, interesting! I did not know that, thank you! But in exotic it is? Maybe that's why she told me it's a quota bag, since she knows I'm an exotic lover, lol

Correct.

I recently placed a request for a Kelly Pochette. My SA said that it was well noted. I’ve only been with this SA for several months. My previous SA had told me that they hardly if ever received Kelly Pochettes. I would love to hear what everyone’s experience. How often does your store have Pochettes ? Are they in very high demand? I am in Canada.

I'm in Europe, told my SA I wanted one and got it a week later in Black with PHW (swift leather). She confirmed that they hardly get them as they belong to the B and K family

Are you happy with it? Do you wear it only for evening? Can you post a photo?

Kelly pochettes are rare...especially in Canada ! I've only gotten two in 10 years ! Bought another one in Japan and one in Vegas...

I bought it beginning of last month, but unfortunately due to the pandemic the pochette hasn't been used and is still stored in her box.
I'm attaching a photo I took when they offered me the bag, my nephew was with me that day.

KP is currently in very low production. Here is another almost exact recent thread.

Congratulations! She’s beautiful. I know what you mean about not wearing recent purchases. The only place I go to regularly is Costco. Not the place to take a Kelly Pochette, I guess.
