Dear Birkin Size Matters:

Choosing the correct size of a Birkin for your lifestyle is an important decision. Here is a general idea of what fits in the Birkin 25 and the Birkin 30. Both offer a spacious interior and are not too heavy when filled.

Birkin 25

The dimensions of a Birkin 25 are approximately 25 cm x 19 cm x 13 cm (9.8” x 7.5” x 5.1”). It is considered a smaller tote but the capacity is good if you carry essentials.

Fits all size smartphones easily
Fits all size wallets from a Calvi to a long Bearn wallet
Fits car and house keys (but consider using a bag organizer inside so the leather does not get scratched)
Fits sunglasses but best to use a soft case to preserve space
Fits airpods easily
Fits a small notebook or planner if it is thin
Fits a small makeup bag for lipstick and a mirror but if you are using a bag organizer you may not need to use a separate makeup bag

Birkin 30

The dimensions of a Birkin 30 are approximately 30 cm x 21 cm x 16 cm (11.8” x 8.3” x 6.3”). It is considered a medium size tote which is spacious and will hold more than the necessities. A Birkin 30 offers more flexibility for carrying additional items, making it a versatile choice for both daily use and traveling.
