The story

Ostrich is the entry point to exotic Hermès: recognizable by the raised quill bumps where feathers grew, and far lighter than crocodile.

Retail runs a little over twice the Togo price, a fraction of a crocodile Birkin.

Resale is steadier than spectacular. Ostrich holds value well in neutral and bright jewel tones, but it does not see the multiples crocodile does.

Ostrich is soft and can scuff at the corners, so condition moves the price more than it does on Togo.

Our verdict: The approachable exotic. The 25 trades above retail; the 30 sells below it.
