Kim Kardashian, known for her fancy lifestyle, stirred up quite a fuss recently. She caught everyone’s attention by casually putting her super expensive Birkin Bag on a not-so-clean floor during a Los Angeles Lakers vs. Golden State Warriors game on March 16. The SKIMS founder, hanging out courtside with her son Saint West, just plopped her pricey Hermès Birkin crocodile-print bag down. The internet went wild, slamming the move as totally shocking. Imagine seeing such a high-priced bag, worth over $50,000 in resale, chilling on the floor like that!
Kim Kardashian’s Birkin Bag Sparks Fan Outrage
Kim Kardashian was front and center at the Los Angeles Lakers game, joined by her son Saint West, 8. While Kardashian kept it low-key in a white tee and leather pants, all attention was on her pricey Hermès Birkin bag resting on the floor next to her. Although the exact price tag is unknown, similar designs are selling for around $40,000.
Fans expressed dismay on Instagram, with one saying, “That bag costs more than most people’s yearly rent. Disgusting.” Another simply stated, “Birkin on the floor is insane.” Kardashian, who officially became a billionaire in 2021, owns several Birkin bags, including a supersized one worth $110,000. Her daughter, North West, even has a miniature $10,000 version. Other celebrities, like Jennifer Lopez, also treat their Birkin bags casually.Last year, Lopez carried her $200,000 Himalayan bag to the gym.
“Putting a Birkin on the floor is just crazy,” one person commented. Another said, “I wouldn’t even think about setting my Birkin down like that.” It’s worth mentioning that Birkin bags are highly sought-after, and it appears that Kim has quite the collection. Back in November, she was spotted walking around New York City with a gray Haut A Courroies 50cm Birkin-style bag. And there was another time when she carried a rare bag from the brand at a match between Al-Nassr and Paris Saint-Germain in Osaka, Japan, back in July 2023.
