Hermes Jypsiere: Your Ultimate On-the-Go Companion

If you love small bags, you’ve probably already heard about the Hermès Jypsiere Mini. As soon as it hit the shelves, it was one of the most talked-about Hermès bags.

The Mini Jypsiere is super versatile. The strap is adjustable so you can wear it in different ways.

You can carry it as a shoulder bag, style it as a trendy underarm Hobo bag or even wear it crossbody as a Messenger bag.

It has lots of personality but goes with any outfit. One downside is the strap isn’t detachable.

But here’s the thing: the Mini Jypsiere isn’t the first version. Before the mini came along, there were already several sizes of the original Jypsiere.

For those always on the go, juggling errands, meetings and maybe even a weekend getaway, the Hermès Jypsiere can be a game changer.

In this article, we will get into everything you need to know about the Hermès Jypsiere.

 

History of Hermès Jypsiere

The Hermès Jypsiere debuted in 2008 and quickly won over fashion fans.

Designed by Jean-Paul Gaultier, the Jypsiere was a more laid-back alternative to the Birkin. Its rounded shape and adjustable strap made it look relaxed yet refined.

The bag also gives a nod to Hermès’ equestrian roots with its design inspired by traditional hunting bags.

It wasn’t just a new shape. The Jypsiere was designed to capture that on-the-go, free-spirited energy.

Over the years, the Jypsiere has become a go-to for those who want something elegant yet practical. It’s the kind of bag you don’t have to think twice about grabbing on your way out the door.

 

Why We Love the Hermès Jypsiere Bag?

The Hermès Jypsiere has a flap with claps in the middle. The strap is adjustable and comes with a shoulder pad.

You can wear it crossbody or over the shoulder. You can also remove the strap if you want (except for Mini).

Inside, you’ll find a big zip pocket and two small ones for your phone or keys. The mini model has only one open pocket inside.

Functional: It’s style and practicality in one, so it’s a no-brainer for anyone on the go.

Secure: It takes a second to open but that front clasp keeps your stuff safe and sound. And if you carry it crossbody, you can keep it close and secure while on the go.

Unisex: This bag isn’t picky! Its design works for everyone, no matter your style or gender.

Iconic: With classic straps and claps, it’s an Hermès. It’s high end iconic but still feels fresh and modern.

Hermès Jypsiere Materials

Depending on the size and model, Jypsiere bags come with either full-leather straps or canvas straps.

The Hermès Jypsiere bags are made from high quality leather, often with two options to choose from: Clemence and Swift. For the Mini Jypsiere, you’ll usually find it in Evercolor or Swift, both luxurious and perfect for a small bag.

Clemence

Soft, slouchy, and full of natural grain, Clemence leather gives the Jypsiere a relaxed, slightly unstructured look, without losing its shape. It’s on the heavier side, but incredibly durable and ideal for travel or everyday use.

Swift

Smooth and supple with a fine grain, Swift is known for its high color saturation, making it the perfect leather for bright, standout shades. It’s lightweight, touchably soft, and works beautifully on smaller bags like the Mini Jypsiere.

Evercolor

Evercolor leather strikes the perfect balance between softness and structure. With its even texture and slightly firmer hand feel, it keeps the Mini looking crisp and polished while still feeling light and elegant.

Hermès Jypsiere bags are unlined, but thanks to the structured leather choices, they hold their shape beautifully.

As for hardware, you can choose between palladium or gold.

Hermès Jypsiere Colors

Hermès Jypsiere comes in tons of colors, especially the Mini size, which gets updated all the time with fresh drops and limited-edition shades.

Go-To Neutrals

Gold – One of Hermès’ most classic shades. This rich golden brown pairs beautifully with both gold and palladium hardware. It flatters pretty much every skin tone and works with any outfit.

Etoupe – A warm gray with beige undertones that feels soft and effortless. This is the go-to neutral for autumn and winter wardrobes.

Noir – You can’t go wrong with black. Clean, timeless, and always elegant. Great if you want one bag to go with literally everything.

Gris Meyer – A newer favorite. It’s a lighter, foggy grey that feels calm and polished. Chic with silver hardware. Very “quiet luxury” vibes.

Bright Colors

Lime – A bright yellow that’s bold but not neon. It pops in summer looks, especially when styled with light or white outfits, and looks amazing in photos.

Vert Criquet – A soft, slightly pastel green. It’s bright enough to stand out but still easy to wear, great with neutrals.

Rose Sakura – Dreamy and romantic, this pale cherry blossom pink is one of Hermès’ most sought-after pastel shades.

Orange – The OG Hermès color. Bright, energetic, and looks incredible when styled with neutrals like beige, white, or denim.

Hermès Jypsiere Price

The Hermès Jypsiere is less expensive than the Birkin or Kelly but still a luxury buy. In 2024, the Mini Jypsiere was priced at $8,100 and by 2025, it‘s $8,700, which is a 7.4% increase.

If you’re thinking of the resale market, the Mini Jypsiere does pretty well too. Even though it’s the smallest size, it’s more expensive than the other bigger sizes.

Depending on the exact specs, it can go for $9,000 to $12,500, almost double the price of the other bigger sizes.

On the resale market, the medium and large sizes are more stable in price. They don’t have the same kind of premium as the Mini, which makes them a smart choice for buyers who care more about practicality.

Jypsiere 28 (Clemence or Swift leather): Usually resells for $4,200–5,800. Some popular colors or new condition pieces can go over $6,000.

Jypsiere 31: Price range is about $4,000–9,000.

Jypsiere 34 / 37: Because of their larger size, they’re less common and the resale prices vary a lot, typically from $3,800 to $6,500. Some colors or leather types can even sell for below retail, making them “hidden gems” for Hermès lovers.

Is Hermès Jypsiere Hard to Get?

One reason the Hermès Jypsiere remains so desirable is that it’s not always easy to get your hands on.

While some of the larger sizes can sometimes be found in Hermès boutiques without much fuss, the Mini Jypsiere is much harder to come by.

That said, the good news is: it’s still more accessible than the Birkin.

In short, the Jypsiere isn’t impossible to find, but certain colors can be very limited.
