Hi all,

Hoping to get an opinion. I have three Hermes 32mm belts - a Quizz in brushed Silver, a Quizz in guilloche black and an H au Carré in silver.

I was hoping to get the new Obstacle in Europe next week but they are sold out online. Would you get a Rouleau (silver or permabrass) or an Idem (brushed permabrass)?

This of course is a first world problem.
While I could logically wait for the Obstacle in the future, the euro is at a low that makes this a great time to buy.

Thanks for the input!!
 
Just want to share with my tPF friends and other belt lovers that I was informed that the 32mm belt for women will be rested and H will make more 24 mm belts. The 32mm will be available in the men's collection. Also the CDC belt will be rested.
 
Hi Hermes Belt Lovers! Can an experienced belt owner help me? I just ordered my first belt kit, 32mm with brushed H and swift/epsom black/gold strap. I ordered an 85 and a 90 since I wasn't sure on size and the online boutique had both sizes in stock at the time (I've been waiting for months for them to restock). I am a size 27/28 jean (depending on the designer). The 85 fits on the first hole so the next hole is visible when the belt is buckled. Is that a big no-no? The 90 is HUGE (can't believe there is that much difference between the sizes and it's too big on the 3rd hole) and I would need to have a lot of additional holes punched (which I would only want Hermes to do and I will never get around to that since I don't live near a boutique). What would you do? Is it ok to see a hole when the belt is closed?

Thanks in advance for the advice. :smile:

Stick with the size 85, I am a 27 in jeans and the extra hole showing never bother me, BaltimoreJenny!

Happy to share my new etoupe/black 32 mm belt and CDC buckle in PHW! I was hoping for a blue paon strap but they did not have it in my size. Funny that this classic, basic combo had eluded me for so long.

Lucky us that have our 32mm belt kits to rely on. I am eyeing the 42cm belts more than the 24cn, interestingly enough.

I have been searching but I can't seem to find what I am looking for so I appreciate help, I want to buy DH an H belt kit. What is the difference between the men's and unisex/women's? How can I tell which is which (if preloved?) What I am looking for isn't available on H.com right now and I am nowhere near a store ... but I see some decent looking ones on preloved sites.
 
Hello, This is my first post on the forum! I'm dying to get my hands on an Hermes belt and I'm debating about an H or a Collier de Chien, 24 mm or 32 mm, etc. I noticed that a lot of the sizes are not listed on line. Does anyone know how often/when they tend to restock? Also, can you buy the buckle separately or do you need to buy a full kit each time you want a new buckle. I did try to read back a bit to see if this information was already posted, but I didn't see it so sorry if this info has already been discussed! Thank you!

The belt for men has another type of cut where the belt buckle is placed (the buckle is put where the single hole is) so it's easy to see the difference when the belt is visible. I enclose a pic from H.com showing an orange/black belt for men and an etoupe/black belt for women.

It's difficult to say when they restock. You cannot buy a buckle separately but it is possible to buy a strap only. Same policy at H stores.
