Thanks for the tips David! I have been to the summer sale once 3 years ago on the last day and I didn't find anything I liked, I'm mostly looking for cashmere or giant silks.
I remember that time was exactly like you describe the lines and the time you got in each section.
Now I have to start planning my trip :smile:

They do have cashmere and big silks but the selection can become limited quickly. My advice is head to that counter very first thing. Last time there was a limit of 3 per customer on those items (you can buy up to 10 of the 90 cm squares).

Noted, I will check those first for sure. It is basically the only thing I would be interested in purchasing. The 90 cm don't work on me, I've tried many times.
Perhaps 70cm because they are softer.
Max 3 of the big scarfs? That's a shame, 3 is very few :(

The number of items you can buy changes from sale to sale depending on how large the on entoryis and how many shoppers there are. It can change from day to day. A great times the sale has been extended one day and additional discounts are applied. I have seen additional discounts applied the last day. Hermes rules are ever evolving.

Not sure. Chances are they have that stuff as just about anything that is unsold makes its way to the Paris sale eventually (with the notable exception of bags). There are two women's scarf lines, one for 90 cm square silk and a second line for all other sizes of women's scarves. In this second queue the 140 cm cashmare/silk squares are the most common but not the only item. Men's scarves are with the neckties and behind a counter and there is no line for those items. Suggest you do the second women's scarves queue first as the stuff at that counter can go fast.

On my wish list for this year is a men's clic clac. They have jewellery in the January sale (but not in June, they have belts instead) and last year they had some women's clic clacs but no men's. The men's are much less common so not sure if they will have any but fingers crossed!

I have never seen men's clic clacs at the sale. I couldn't find a women's large either The prices in Paris at the retail level are less than in the US...maybe you can find one at 24 FBG.

Really? In many colors?
I love those I actually tried them yesterday at my local store. They are so thick and luxurious :smile:

Yes, the thick and luxurious ones! Honestly, I don't recall how many colors there were - I spotted my fave color across the room and made a bee line for it! As I recall, they weren't very popular as most folks were looking at printed ones, so it was nice to be able to look without someone trying to grab it away! If I can find them again, I would definitely like another color...
