And just to confuse you- if you're in the market for a K40, this one looks lovely and may do
Here you go

Thank you @Ruedubac much appreciated. I might actually head to the 5th ave store in NYC to try on the sample B35. Need to see how it matches my built. If and when you have a minute, could you please post a picture of what the B35 looks like with a laptop in, sweater and maybe a cosmetic/product pouch? It would help me get a visual. Again thanks for the recommendation. I am 70% certain it will be a B40 but need to clear out the remaining 30% regarding a B35.

I personally think a B40 would look better on you.

Gents - Need some serious advice here... Been looking through your mod shots and all of you rock these bags like there is no tomorrow. I can finally say I built a great relationship with my SA for a Birkin. I am in a jam as I cannot get my head around choosing either a B35 or B40. For starter, I am 5'9" and 155 lbs. Athletic fit. I want the bag to serve me as a day bag when needed but also I want the bag to be a generous bag to be used as a travel bag, you know to throw in a zipped hoodie for a flight, MacBook 13", phone, magazine, keys, small cosmetic/products pouch and a water bottle. This is what I would expect to use my bag for.
It's my first Birkin and I do not want to make an expense financial mistake. So what do you recommend a 35 or a 40? Here's a mod shot of my height to help if any, I appreciate it.

Honestly, you could rock either, but I would still recommend the B35, it is a much more wearable bag in my opinion compared to the B40.

AJ! So great to see my previous Louis Vuitton friends from TPF on here as well. I went to H today and my SA brought out a new B35 in Etoupe. I think it might have been for someone. It did not match my built. Looked small on me. 40 it is.

Out and about on a rare sunny London afternoon with my Vert Cyprès B35…

Was on the hunt for the perfect alligator bearn! My SA showed me this piece and it was love at first site!

Does any one have any examples of a SO they have done in a Birkin 40 as a guy? I’ve been offered an SO appointment and need some help please. I have a HAC 50 so this will be the ideal next bag for me.

I just had my SO appointment, Birkin 40, Epsom leather in grey with blue on the sides, strap and handle with matte hardware. Now it’s a waiting game, but I did purchase a bag charm in preparation

How cool is this! I have the little sister of your SO. Mine is Saphir Chèvre, Graphite lining and brushed PHW also. Congrats!

I have B40, in Epsom Sapphire blue, too, with brushed PHW. Lining is electric blue.

Your bag will be stunning!

This was taken in almost direct sunlight, depending on the light the bag can look darker.

Wow the blue looks amazing, mine is blue on the sides, handles straps. Now I’m thinking I could swapped that to the grey!

Thinking about getting DH a birkin, since he really wants a big shoulder bag. Does B40 or B45 fit over shoulders? He’s medium build. He was offered a HAC55 before but straps were too short.
