I just looked at the Buffalo Skipper B, it is lined in Buffalo Skipper as well, so I bet it is quite heavy.I see Sam at Haute Gallery has a Buffalo Skipper 40B. Is it a heavy leather? It is so pretty. But a darn big bag if the leather is heavy. I know nothing about it...
I just weigh my two kelly 35's. One in togo, the other in buffle. Both weigh the same. I am surprised since the togo "feels" lighter. Buffle is stiffer than togo, but not as stiff as box or epsom. Hope this helps!
Is yours lined in Buffle too?
Probably lined in chèvre?Not sure.....it is a smoothies leather with small grain. I don't think it's Togo, nor gulliver.......maybe ardenne?

I have a 35B in buffalo and it's super heavy even when empty. It's definitely heavier than my clemency 35Bs, but it feels thicker and hardier. I am not sure why, but my SA (FSH) tells me that you can walk in the rain with buffalo, but not clemence, it's not the same. So I have always known it to be one of H's most durable leathers.
Its a bit hefty. But I can babysit the bag for ya whenever your arm is too tired.
Sorry for Bumping old thread for some info.
I am in search of preloved Birkin in Buffalo Skipper. But I’ve never seen the leather in size 30? Was the leather only made for bigger size bags like 35 & 40 that I’ve occasionally seen?
I read this leather is heavy. I wonder if it is heavier than my Fjord?
Also about colors availability for this particular leather seemed to be very limited? I’ve only seen solid color in black.
If anyone here has more info about this leather pls share with me. Thanks.
