Hello~! I've looked high and low yet have been unsuccessful in finding answers to my questions. Moderators, please forgive me and move this thread if I've posted in the wrong section. Thank you.

For the record, I'm female and am looking for an 'under the radar' H belt kit. The Idem looks like it ticks all the boxes, but I'm unsure of a couple of things and hope someone who owns this buckle and leather combination can help me.

First the 35mm Idem buckle:
1. durability - it looks fairly delicate with those thin H bars. Any issues with the metal bending? (unlikely I'm sure, but still... very thin H! so wish to be sure)

2. wear-ability - Ladies specifically, do you find this style to be one you reach for regularly? Can it be dressed up/down?

3. mod shots? - I've found one thread with photos of a fellow female member modelling this belt, but no others. Any other women own this model and willing to post an outfit of the day modelling this buckle?


Next, the leather! box/togo vs swift/epsom: which do you feel would be the more durable combination?

Thank you so much! :winkiss:

The Idem buckle doesn't have the same slight contour as the H buckle. Therefore it doesn't sit quite right when worn with jeans. I have 42 belt straps and almost always wear my H buckles with them. I can count on one hand the number of times I've worn the Idem. All the leather combos are great and I find all equally durable. Lastly, the Idem buckle is not as delicate as it appears. There's no way it would crack or bend.

Thank you kelly girl.
OMGosh you have forty two belt straps! :faint: I'd love to come play in your closet. LOL.

hmmm, I've not been considering the H buckle because I've been concerned about it getting scratched (this would really both me). As well, I fear it might scream Hermes. But then again, it's fairly inconspicuous as it is just a letter. So many choices! : )

Do you have an H buckle that's stood the test of time and has worn better than others?

(And a photo would be lovely, if you have any to share)

Hi all! This is my first post in the forum though I have been a lurker for quite awhile now! I'm a male and though I don't own many H pieces, I especially love the belt kit (32mm). My first H belt was purchased almost 5 years ago and it was the 32mm belt strap in Black (Box) and Chocolate (Togo) combination, and the buckle I selected was the classic H buckle in brushed silver. I later bought the Black (Box) and Gold (Togo) belt strap and thereafter the Black (Box) and Orange (Togo) belt strap, but this time, I added the Idem buckle to my mini collection.

I always used the Black belts whereas I rarely used the Chocolate combination. I loved the Gold belt, but didn't use it too often. And when I wanted to wear the Gold combination, I could not as the dark jean stains were too marked on the leather.

Since then, I no longer own any of the mentioned belt straps, as they were given away due to weight loss.

In the past few months, I have added acquired three new belt kit straps, and they are:

- Black (Box) / Colvert (Togo)
- Black (Box) / Tourbe (Taurillon Cristobal)
- Black (Chamonix) - Etain (Togo)


I'm also very interested in a Black / Etoupe belt, but this combination seems to be so hard to come by as of recently.

Are there any suggestions of any other interesting color combinations that may be interesting?

I don't think I'd want to buy a Black / Chocolate strap again, but the Black / Gold strap seems to be getting my attention once again! The Gold leather color is very nice and it is an H classic after all!

Are you aware of the new Kouture belt straps? They have a stitching design all around and come in Hermes' heritage leather, barenia, which would be fun to have.
