Yea that is true. I am very new to the brand, and all my items so far have bed purchased online so they haven't had any interaction with me. Maybe I should go back and checkout the men's clic hh bracelet. I'm kind of intrigued by them...but I'm wary of wearing a bangle
 
Hello all

I am a noob in hermes belts. honestly i didn't even know there was such a cult following :)

I was in London recently on a business trip and decided to finally spluge on an H belt--I had been eyeing one for a while but I live in HK and everytime I tried to buy it, they never seemed to have it in stock (or didn't want to sell me).

So in London they had a variety of colors and I couldn't decide so bought two. One of them is the stamped H and the other is the Idem buckle.

The normal H was easy to wear, but I can't figure out the right way to wear the idem buckle. I assume The single hole goes in first and then the tapered end with multiple hole goes in? The problem I have is there are two metal loops on the idem buckle and if I want to wear it with dress trousers and want a good fit (not a lose fit with jeans), then Its hard to make it go through both loops. I have to really suck in my stomach, make it go the first loop and make it then go through the send loop and try to fit the right hole. and the pin can easily scratch the belt. there must be a better way?

I have no such issues with the other H belt as it only has loop on one end so i can do the far loop first and then lock the pin.

Is idem buckle supposed to be so tricky?
 
H belt lovers!!! Behold! Belt kits are listed on H.com again!!!



Still waiting for help :graucho::graucho::graucho::graucho:


Hi everyone!!!

I am new to tPF and the Hermes belt thread. I have some questions and I hope some of the experts here can help me!!

I was planning to do some holiday shipping and realized that Fashionphile has several 18mm thin Hermes belts that are extremely stylish. (Below are the hyperlinks). I don't usually buy preowned items so I wonder if this style (18mm) has been discontinued and if unfortunately yes, are they really good deals on Fashionphile?

Thank you all in advance!!!:p:p:p:p

Yes. It is the way it is. I collect H buckles and wear them often, and the Idem is always my last choice. I will upload a pic later on.
 
Since you provided more details in the Treatment thread, I've replied to you there: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes-shopping/treatment-in-hermes-stores-267768-70.html#post24952324

With Hermes - you either buy what you see, when you see it, if you want it. Or - you wait. <shrug>. We've all been there. You'll either find what you're looking for, eventually, or you'll find something else that strikes your fancy. It'll work out, one way or the other.

Good luck.

I went to the Vienna Virginia store to see if they had any belt kits. But they didn't have any in my size :( she took my information down but she said that she doesn't know when they would get once since they don't come often :(

It kind of felt like I would never hear back.

Those Croc straps!!:loveeyes::loveeyes::loveeyes:
 
Good gracious! It's still raining belt kits!

Here's the update from the afternoon for US H.com: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/official-hermes-belt-thread-562026-75.html#post24956358

Of course, all the 32mm non croc belt kits sold out by the evening. The availability of everything else - 24mm, 32mm croc straps, and buckles - are all the same - as of now. In the meantime, the following kits have been added:

32mm

black/blue jean box/togo 75, 85
black/orange box/togo 85
cinnamon/orange box/togo 90

The 42mm belt kit that was available for a split second, is now gone. :p

HTH! :smile1:
 
And... the black/orange & cinnamon/orange are now gone... but US H.com has added:

32mm

grey/black epsom/chamonix 75

If there was ever a time to score a 75 - now is it. There was one belt kit in 75 last week. So far, there have been three belt kits in 75 this week, two of which are still available on H.com.

HTH! GL! :smile1:

(Previous update is 2 posts above: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/official-hermes-belt-thread-562026-75.html#post24959569)

Also... CDC belts for $2,050 are available:
Silver & palladium plated - size 105
Gold plated - size 90

I scored a black/etoupe Box/togo belt kit with Palladium H buckle at Paris Sevres last week... after the VAT refund came to $633. The discount resulting from buying in Paris was just an added bonus... I've been waiting for a belt kit at my local H for MONTHS!
 
Omgd they were gone so quick!! :crybaby::crybaby:

Ladies i have question. Since i do not yet own a belt... do they come in Etoupe? I would love to match my B. The etone was absolutely stunning but i blinked and it was gone :crybaby:

Also, which belt color do you feel is the most versetile other then black?
