this is a great reference, should put this thread in the library section.It's ashamed that i do not have a birkin to weight, and should try to work on other size birkin... keep up the great works!!!!
^^^^ Isn't it interesting that jford is the heaviest amongst all leather? In some years, even heavier than clemence... Meanwhile I always thought barenia is the heaviest of them all... I wonder why is it that clemence and barenia are known for the heaviest, but not fjord...

i bought a bag in clemence and would have never done so if i had realized how heavy it is. now, some people dont mind the weight and if you live in a place where you are in and out of a car you might never notice BUT if you love in a city and walk everywhere (more or less) you notice the weight after a bit.
i wish the box wasn't so easily scratched. i guess scratches might not be too visible on some colours.
