thank you! ive been fortunate enough to get EXACTLY what i want from Hermes. something i know is extremly rare.

Hello again! Just wondering, do you find your belts with epsom leather to be a bit stiffer than your belts without? My white epsom/natural chamonix is a lot less flexible than my chocolate togo/black Box. I'm hoping the epsom/chamonix will soften a bit, with use. Just curious what your experience has been.

You know...I've never really noticed or paid much attention...I have to get back to you on that one.

It's not enough to be an issue, it's just that my togo/box belt is so very soft and flexible, while the epsom/chamonix, is a bit less so. I think perhaps it's because epsom is created by stamping a texture onto the leather, which may make it a bit more stiff.

Awww man! I CAN NOT step foot in that boutique for at least 3 months!!!!!!!!!! I was across the street leaving Tysons and decided to go straight at the light rather than turn left and get on 495 and I ended up doing MORE DAMAGE..... I got another freakin belt kit on Saturday! Simultaneously giddy with excitement and revolted at the same time....

So Happy to score a Crocus to Etain in the Constance size with a shiny PHW buckle. Pics to come. Updated fam photo to come...

Bad FLAVA! BAD BAD GIRL!!!!!

Aw man!!! Crocus and etain!! Wish my etain was crocus on the other side!! Gorge!!

Hi etoile.. Yes, my Epsom belt is stiffer than my Togo.. But I expected that, as I know with the bags it's the same . Epsom holds its shape better than Togo does in the bags, if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks so much, jp_536, so helpful to know. Yes, this does make sense, as Epsom bags are more structured.

I do. Swift in vermillion and chamonix in chocolat reversible with Constance buckle in 24mm.

Thoroughly love this belt.

Pic quality not so good though.

Lovely!

I'm going to the UK next month, where would be the best place that I would have the most chances to get a Ceramic H buckle?

Also, about how much is it? Thanks!!

It seems most people like to wear the 32mm. Any ladies prefer the 24? I haven't been able to find many pictures of the 24 being worn. I worry that I would look like I'm wearing a child's belt because I have no sense of how small it is compared to the 32. Can't get to H easily because it's a 2.5 hr train ride away. I'm 24" natural waist but usually wear my belts low (31"). Anyone with similar measurements have comparison pics, mod shots or input? Thanks!

Hello jinete11,

To get an idea of how they would look, you could possibly make a mock-up of each size, and hold it at your waist where you plan to wear it. You could do this by making 'paper belts', by cutting a few strips of paper at the appropriate widths, and taping them together. Use 1" wide strips for the 24mm, and 1 1/4" for the 32mm.

I hope someone else will jump in with photos of the 24mm in action, but otherwise, I hope this will help a bit! Good luck!

Ah thanks! Great suggestion! If I had more motivation I would take the time to do cut outs I love looking at the pictures though - they're much more enabling.

Hello fellow belt fans, I'm finally posting some action snaps! Yesterday, I wore my Domino Belt Buckle, with my Natural Chamonix/White Epsom, 32mm Belt.

It *was* worth all the effort to track this set down, yay! I was especially happy to find the Domino Buckle, as I like the way it mimics the shape and finish of my Barenia watch. And I'm loving the color of the Natural Chamonix side of the belt!
