First conclusion | Size that beginners are “hard to regret”
-
Garden party → PM
-
PicotinLock → PM (MM if you have a lot of luggage)
-
Bolide → 27 (31 for large capacity)
"I want to use it every day" "I don't want to fail"
For such people, these "intermediate sizes" are the most satisfying option.
whyHERMESIs “selection of size” particularly important?
HERMESThe bags have the same design but differ in size.
Usability itselfwill change.
There are five main points that will change:
-
Amount of luggage that can fit
-
Balance when holding (compatibility with height)
-
Bag body weight
-
Ease of use in everyday life
-
Price/market value
Particularly beginners tend to make mistakes,
There are cases where you end up choosing just because "the smaller one is cuter" and you end up running out of space.
From here, you can understand what only a buyer who deals with the actual product every day can tell.
We will explain “really satisfying sizes” for each model.
