I have a box/togo belt that I find uncomfortable to wear since it's very stiff. I've only worn it a few times though. Is this normal and will it soften over time? Or are there other softer belt options from Hermes?

I love box and usually this leather is combined with togo, which is not my cup of tea. Box gets softer with use but not as soft as some other leathers. Do you like the glossy finish?

Swift is softer and usually combined with epsom. Most of my belts arein swift/epsom which is my favourite everyday combo and I can recommend. Both leathers look great with colours too if you are not a neutral person like me.

I also have belts in barenia and chamonix but they are not available so often. Chamonix feels very stiff so you would probably not enjoy it anyway.

Hello!

Does anybody have a 32mm leather belt strap in Sombrero and Togo or something very similar? If your strap has the "straight" end instead of the newer tapered end, please let me know the strap reference number!

I am trying to find a particular strap, but I need a reference number to begin my search!

Thanks so much!!

This will be my 1st Hermes purchase. My H store is in Manhasset NY luckily I’m only 15 mins away. I am having a very hard time finding noir/gold in my size with the brushed gold H buckle. Every time new inventory pops up online it seems to sell out immediately even though I’m checking constantly like a crazy person :) I have been to Manhasset once and called once in the last 3 weeks and last I called (a week ago) their inventory is still shot from Xmas. I’m on a waiting list with a very nice SA but not sure I’ll get a call bc im new and they don’t know me. Do I call again and follow up? Wait it out? Keep hoping I get lucky on the website? Do I call the Manhattan store? I’ve read mixed reviews about them discussing leather inventory over the phone. Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank u!!

Following up on my previous post. Wall Street sa was happy to give me inventory info over the phone. He also said that if I go to the store in person they will call other stores and have the belt I’m looking for shipped direct to me but they can’t do this over the phone only in person. But they can’t do this at Manhasset bc it’s a franchise not corporate store. Anyone else have any ideas as to how to save a trip to the city? Anyone know any stores that will take an over the phone order?

Hey Everyone. I wanted to get my husband a Hermes belt with the H buckle, but my friend told me not to. She made it seem like it’s embarrassing and looks too try hard and that her boyfriend would never wear one. He’s apparently a 50 year old fashionista from London. Not sure if that would make a difference or not. My husband is a 38 year old American. Is it too try hard if he has an H belt? He’s not a flashy guy so it’s not like anything else on him will have any logos.

That is a great gift idea. It is a shame that your friend has planted doubts in your mind, because the belt with an H buckle is the one that you want to give him. If you are near to Hermes it should be possible to exchange the H buckle for a different style. Exchange for a different items would be an option, but that would not be the gift you wanted to give. Nonetheless you would want him to be happy and want to use whatever it might be.
Assuming you mean 32mm in some ways the H could not be less obvious, being the initial letter of Hermes, it is much more subtle than GG, LV or othe initial buckles.

That is Hermes' policy so you either get it on line or you go to the boutique for a charge send.

Hi H belt lovers(owners) - My DIL has lost most of her pregnancy fat and will be in Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong for the next three weeks and she wants to know if she could simple walk in in to one of the stores there to have additional holes punch? What about inside the duty-free too? Any reply will be greatly appreciated.
