A Look Back: Hermès Price Trends Over the Years

It may feel like Hermès bag prices have grown at a dizzying rate for many years. However, as recently as 2021, the price for a Birkin 25 in Togo leather remained constant in the U.S. compared with the previous year. In fact, the price remained unchanged in 2016, 2020, and 2021. Across the board, most Hermès bag prices remained the same during the pandemic or were raised minimally. Nevertheless, the Birkin 25 bag’s price has increased 22.84%, from $9,850 to $12,100 since 2019. Similarly, Hermès bag prices for the Kelly 25 in Togo leather in the Retourne style have climbed from $9,375 in the U.S. in 2019 to $12,000 today. 

Historically, Hermès price increases have been about 1%-4% each year. The rising prices are said to account for increasing costs in producing the premium Hermès leathers and hardware as well as hiring new artisans to craft the bags. The other unspoken part of the equation is the positioning of Hermès bags in the luxury market. The challenging and expensive path to buying a Birkin or Kelly bag at a boutique and the engineered scarcity are specifically crafted to drive the bags’ exclusivity. Hermès price increases have the same impact. The rising prices naturally ensure that fewer can afford to wear the gorgeous bags, making them even more exclusive. Some consider the hefty Hermès increases of the past couple of years to be a response to recent staggering increases by Chanel.

Now, let’s turn to the specific Hermès 2025 price increases.

Note that the 2025 Hermès price increase applies to all bags and Hermès accessories, not just the quota bags like the Birkin and Kelly bags. In fact, the largest increases have applied to non-quota bags, specifically the Herbag Zip Cabine and the Dépêches 25 Pouch. Other popular styles, such as the Constance, received a significant increase, while some, like Evelyne, had a more moderate increase. We’re still waiting to learn the new Hermès bag price for the Picotin in America.
