Hey Hermes lovelies!
I have a question - after 3 whole years of searching high and low for a strap in 80 cm (already have a buckle kit in a smaller size in gold/dark brown) I FOUND IT while randomly walking into Hermes in Toronto -an amazing black/etain size 80 little belt calling my name! The SA punched an extra hole where the buckle is to make it closer to the end and for it to fit not toooo snug on me - perfection!

Now - my other strap (and most I see online including the Hermes website) has one end that is cut in a square - mine has both ends cut slanted (as per picture - I classily unbuttoned while sitting down haha)

Can anyone tell me if this is the new way straps are made or any explanation in regards to this? Thank you!!

That is odd... none of my 32 mm belt straps are cut that way and all of mine are P stamped or newer. I do not have a R stamp though so maybe it is really new. However the malachite, bamboo and anemone straps that have been posted recently are not like yours either.... odd....

Hi,

I have a brand new taupe (not etoupe) / black strap and it looks just like yours. The etoupe I purchased on the same day (from the same boutique) is in the traditional shape. Odd, right?

Ok so you got one like that too? I bought it on Saturday in Toronto - maybe it's super new? She told me it's the new ones and that she doesn't understand why the strap is longer where the H goes (hence why she made my extra hole there so there are 2 holes behind my H and I use the new one)

I was woozy of excitement as it's honestly been 3 years of pop ins and searches for a strap I liked (including going to Europe and the USA in search) - never on a waiting list just visits

I really wonder if it's a new shape or if it is a strap that goes with another buckle? Either way, I quite adore it but was really curious!

Meant to reply to you! You have one like that as well? *PHEW* am not alone? Are we the firsts of a new generation?

Is this a strap for another buckle? So confused! But stunning and I love it. Just saying !

Since you bought these straps from Hermes Boutiques, I would not worry and just enjoy... it must be a VERY recent change and I'm sure more will post this new belt shape soon....

Hi Roxanana,

Don't worry that's the newest style for the strap but they still continue making ones with the square end too.
Mine is exactly like yours bought this year at Hermes San Diego.
Hope this helps.

Hi everyone, the new shape strap is new only MAN strap, designed for men.

The other one is for women.

You can notice that the square shaped strap is upside down when a mman wear it, so they made it one exclusive for men, with less and darker colours.

Bye

I was wondering if that was the case! Well good to know they make them for really skinny men in size 80 ! I am quite happy about it and find it looks fresh and sleek - very excited :)

Thanks everyone for all of your responses you knowledgeable Hermes fans :)
