Buy a Hermes Replica Handbag, Save a Crocodile

One Birking bag taks 4 crocodiles

Baiting a croc with what could have been his brother!


How many crocodiles does it take to make one Hermes Croc Birkin? 4. How many to make a fake Hermes bag? Why, none of course. Now you may not be the biggest reptilian monster fan but you should know that crocodiles are in fewer and fewer numbers these days—dwindling thanks to very little protection and destruction of habitat.

You know me, always touting replica purses, (my friends say it’s because I’m frugal) but seriously, in this case, it’s humanitarian. Do I really need 4 dead crocs for my purse? (And still, do I want to spend the 40 grand to get it?) When the fake Hermes looks, lasts and feels like real, why wouldn’t I?

The Star of this episode was the Hermes Birkin bag

Remember the Hermes Croc Birkin Episode of Sex and the City?


It blew my mind when I found out that not only does it take 4 crocs to make a Birkin, but they’re looking to produce 3000 of them a year….yes, do the math. In order to meet their demands Hermes has taken a strange route. They’ve decided to raise their own crocodile population. This I love to picture. Fashionistas in heels feeding the beasts on a Paris rooftop somewhere.

The breeding grounds are actually in Australia, far away from most of the European and American buyers waiting on the lists to own their own piece of Madison Ave meets the savannah.

It makes me wonder. What is this doing for Hermes image? I mean am I the only one that finds it a little unnerving? Personally I’m glad my Hermes Birkin is fake. What do you think? Does the reptilian price only add to the allure, or make the replica bag more appealing?

    Hi Sofia,
    I’m writting you from Croatia. All my life I wanted to buy a Birkin bag, but I realized I could afford it only if I win the lottery. So I am considering to purchase a replica ( my wedding universary is getting close and I can just forward the site address to my husband hoping that will do the trick ). Could you please recommend the reliable site that sells Hermes?

    Hi Sofia,

    Really love your blog. Very informative and super helpful. I’m looking for an hermes garden bag. replicavalley.com doesnt seem to have it. I tried poshbagz (and I was directed to a new website called poshmoda. hope its still the same). They had the garden bag, and I wanted to get your opinion if you think its good quality. Its here http://www.poshmoda.com/products/hermes/prod/3206-hermes-garden-ribbon-tote-%28black%29. Thanks!
