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.

In my experience H boutiques will puncture up to 2 extra holes if needed. I’ve never asked duty-free shops to provide this service though. No need to book an appointment, unless the store is super busy they will provide the service while waiting.

Thank you so much!! Is it unusual that the sa didn’t tell me what kind of leather it is? I know the noir/gold comes in a few options. I assume the one I bought is box/Togo. But I was so excited I never even asked! Lol!
Anyway I’m already thinking about my next purchase...thoughts on the black/etain with the brushed palladium belt kit? I like the grey look of the etain. And I wear both silver and gold although most of my bags have ghw...

The pic is too small for me to be able to identify the leather but I'd assume it is box if the gold color is togo... I have this combo and it wears well! The box leather is shiny and smooth.
I try not to repeat colors since the kits are so pricey but sometimes it's hard. Etain to black would be useful and definitely select a palladium buckle. However, try not to pull the trigger too quickly because H tends to release really nice combos like graphite to blue electric... that's how they rope you into 167859 different belt kits haha I know from experience. (((shame))) So try to slow down and do some research if you don't wannna repeat color combos...

I am wondering what are people’s opinions about Hermes belts for males, as I’m thinking of getting one for my husband. I find that European males, gay males, and dandies wear it quite well, but what about the mediocre sense of style that is found on San Francisco tech males? Will it look too try hard if not worn properly? My best friend says Hermes belts on guys look like it’s “too much” and she would be embarrassed if her man wore it. My trainer thought of rappers when I first brought up Hermes belts for men. Just curious what everyone else thinks. TIA

What do you mean by "Hermes belts"? There are so many styles, from conservative to trendy, that you are bound to find a style that suits him.

If you mean the belt with a H buckle, I understand that it is not for everyone. I do think that it looks too much on me and I prefer the more conservative designs personally (the Gentle, the Cape Cod, the Etriviere, the H Rouleau, etc...). The Quizz H buckle in dark blue lacquer is the only H buckle that I manage to wear confidently (because it blends in with my dark jeans). I am familiar with the SF tech crowd, and I think that I would go with a more understated design.

I don’t think the H belts are masculine enough for guys. Not a fan at all as it seems slightly feminine like why are you wearing Hilary or Heather’s belt charm around your waist? Overall the ubiquity of Hermès belts makes me want to just give mine away. Lol...But that’s just me...

Hermes offers a variety of belts for men of every taste. They have some that look like a very "standard" belt from any brand (with a few small details to keep them interesting and uniquely Hermes).

Here are three of their more "standard" belts which would suit a lot of guys.

I would just ask your husband if he likes a certain style (the one you were thinking of). If he’s not into it, you can spend the money on a belt for yourself instead. I’ve seen an H belt on a stylish guy (person on the street) worn with jeans and sneakers, and it looked great. But you have to be able to pull it off. For me, I’m not that into H belts (but like other buckles).
