I just bought this brown/black reversible Constance belt online in size 70 in excellent condition for $349. It sounds small but I intend to wear it on my natural waist over dresses and not over pants. I typically wear a US 2 for bottoms and size 26 jeans. Think it will fit?

Congratulations on your belt purchase! Keeping fingers crossed that the size will work for you! If you have a tape measure, you can get a better sense of how it might fit when you measure your natural waist. once measured, add two inches and you will arrive at the proper belt size. good luck!

Hello all,
I just received a 32 mm belt kit in Swift and Epsom which is really nice. I ordered the Idem buckle which I love because it’s understated, but it was virtually impossible to open the belt after I inserted into the belt hole. Has anyone experienced this?

Hi dandyboy,
Fear not, this is normal with a new strap; the holes will loosen up with use.
Enjoy~! The Idem is a beautiful, understated piece.

Do you mean that you are finding that the leather sticks together, because i do sometimes experience that with the indigo box side of one of mine; you just have to prise it apart with your fingers.

Thank you everyone for responding to my inquiry about the buckle becoming "stuck" in the holes of the belt strap. I cannot tell if it is simply tight now because it's new, and whether or not it will get better with time.

In any event, I am also struggling to figure out how to get the Idem buckle on without so much difficulty! It seems to be a poor design choice to have the "prong" in the center of the 'H'! If anyone has any tips or suggestions, I would certainly appreciate it!

Otherwise, I need ideas for another understated buckle that still classy for a guy.
:)

My husband & I "share" belts and men's scarves (LOL). He's also an understated guy - he likes the black enamel H buckle ( this comes in matte & glossy finishes - I have glossy). His other choice is the brushed matte palladium horse's head buckle. The horse's head (can be viewed on this thread) is very clean & modern, and doesn't scream "Designer Hermes" because the Hermes label is around the horse's eye.

Hey shrpthorn,
I am not sure which buckle you are referring to. How can I see an image of it?
Thank you!

dandyboy, the horse head plate buckle is very obvious when you look on the H website.
When I looked just now the Idem buckle was not offered but there was the Rider32.
It looked very similar to the Idem, but with a double bar; that means it cannot have the same centred stud fastening of the Idem that is causing you the problem.
Have you considered wearing the buckle back to front I ' I that would make it easier to manipulate the tongue for a while until it softens. It would be even more discreet.
