Hermès Non-Quota Bag Options: A Comprehensive List
Hermès is a luxury brand shrouded in mystique. Whether you’re new to Hermès or a devoted collector, learning about the exquisite bags you crave can be challenging. Many online forums are dedicated to sleuthing and discussing different colors, sizes, styles, and various arcane details of the bags. Hermès non-quota bags, in particular, seem to be a carefully guarded secret. The scarcity of information is all part of the deliberately crafted exclusivity that has made Hermès bags the most coveted on the planet.
We have researched extensively and compiled a comprehensive list of the 100 Hermès non-quota bag styles for your review. Most are currently in production. We have noted those that have been discontinued with an asterisk, but they can still be found new and unworn on the secondary market.
Let’s explore everything you need to know about Hermès non-quota bags.
What Are Hermès Non-Quota Bags?
The Hermès quota bag system was created to artificially promote the exclusivity of the Maison’s flagship bags. Customers are strictly limited to purchasing no more than two quota bags in a year, driving demand and prices ever higher. The most coveted restricted quota bags are any color or size Birkin or Kelly, including the Mini Kelly II. Beyond these, Hèrmes corporate or some boutiques may treat non-quota bags as quota bags. At some boutiques, the Constance is treated as a quota bag. So are the Kelly Danse, Kelly Pochette, Kelly Elan and the recently reintroduced Shoulder Birkin.
Any Hermès bag that is not subject to the quota restrictions is considered a non-quota Hermès bag.
Benefits of Choosing Hermès Non-Quota Bags
Hermès non-quota bags offer several benefits to discerning collectors. First, there is the sheer abundance of styles, shapes, colors, and materials available. Each is designed and crafted with the same impeccable quality as the Birkin and the Kelly, yet many more options exist for accessorizing your wardrobe. Many collectors cherish the styles of the non-quota bags, feeling they better reflect the wearer’s individuality rather than wearing a bag everyone already knows and wants.
As with quota bags, the availability of non-quota bags are limited in the boutiques with the most popular ones, such as the Evelyne and Picotin, not on the shelves. Often there is a client waitlist for the most popular ones. If you are a client, you should tell your SA which non-quota bag you want. That gives you a chance of being offered it (or something similar) in the future. If you are not an Hermès client, getting a popular non-quota bag is almost as difficult as getting a quota bag and you are best going to a well regarded reseller.
Less in demand bags, such as the Kelly Depeches pouch, may be readily available but the boutiques typically limit you to one or two bags at the time. Sometimes purchasing non-quota bags counts toward your pre-spend and helps you develop a customer profile deemed worthy of purchasing a quota bag, but some boutiques do not count leather goods toward the pre-spend.
Now, let’s dive into our comprehensive Hermès non-quota bags list.
