It depends on the belt style. Some belts should not be shortened because the whole design/fit would be off (like a wide, tapered style I considered a couple of years ago -- forgot the name), or it may be impossible due to hardware placement, e.g., the CDC belt.

But the regular H belt can be shortened, and they would do it from the side that has only one hole, which means the Hermes size and logo stamps would be unaffected. (The size would then be wrong, of course, since the belt would be shorter than what the sizing says, but that would not be a problem unless you wish to sell it one day. Even so, it can be explained.) I would show it to an Hermes craftsperson and ask if it can be done. I wanted a size 78 H belt and decided to get an 80, knowing that I could have it sized down to a 78 in the future.

Thanks for the advice, tamarind!

My gold buckle is looking a little worn, do the stores offer any sort of polishing/buffing/spa services?

Hello, I want to purchase a hermes belt but I am lost about the sizinf I am a 25-26 size in jeans. What size belt would I need?

i'm a 24 in jeans and got an 85.

I am the same size as you. I have three of these style belts from Hermes:
85 to wear through jeans' loops (medium to low rise) -- I could wear this on true waist but it requires looping the extra material around and a lot of extra holes.
78 with some extra holes punched in to wear only at true waist
80 to wear both ways (I chose this because it's a different strap width from the other two and I only have one in this width and only one buckle for it). I can wear this with jeans that are not too low-rise, if I wear it on the last hole. I had some extra holes put in and can wear this on my true waist, e.g. with dresses, as well, but it still has some extra material to loop around. The 78 was better for this purpose.

If possible stop in the boutique; they have a measure but not your run of the mill tape measure. I believe it has the different cm sizes marked. HTH

May I know the price for the H buckle kit in HK?
I tried to call and the guy said HKG 60,000.
Thanks!

Hi ladies, just need your opinion.
If my jeans size is about 25 inches, should I go for 80 or 85 for the Hermes Belt? I tried on size 80 before (85 was out of stock), it can fit but seems a little bit short. And I prefer wearing the belt on all high, natural & low waist, more flexible. Is 85 a better option? Thanks for your input
