Just an update for anyone else who’s wondering: I just called the customer service line for Hermès and they said they are no longer making the straight edge for the 32 mm belt, the new tapered edge is the one they are using now and they are unisex even though it’s listed under men’s only on their website. She said the only belts that will have the straight edge are the 13 mm and 24 mm size and those are listed under women’s.

Thanks for sharing the information and it's good to know that!

Ive noticed this too, newer belt straps all have tapered edge...except for the exotic (croc, ostrich) straps still have straight edges.

I picked up the 32 mm belt from the Crystals boutique while I was in Vegas last week. I got it in black/gold with the brushed silver buckle. It has the tapered edge but I’m so happy with it[emoji173]️

Hello everyone! Just a question and I’d like to see as many responses as possible to get a good idea of what I should do. So I got my 32 mm belt home and finally tried it on with my jeans. Mostly I wear high waisted jeans but I do have some that are super high waisted and highest waisted jeans. The belt fits on the last hole on my high waisted jeans and I bought it in an 85 but does not fit on the last hole on my super high waisted and highest waisted jeans. The belt slides between the loops. Do most of you ladies/men have H punch extra holes in it? If so, did they come out crooked? I just don’t want to do that unless it comes out perfectly. Does the machine they use perfectly line it up or is it done by hand? TIA!

It is really depends on personal preference.
You can consider to exchange for 80 instead since the 85 fits on the last hole of your high waisted jeans (I assume that is the lowest waist jeans you had).
I did punch extra holes for my belt and it is done by hand. It is perfect.
Sorry if I am not helping much

Okay thank you! I talked to a SA at my closest boutique and she kind of talked me into keeping the 85 for extra room just in case. She said we can always make them smaller but we cannot make them bigger and she has a point. :/ Did you have your’s done by H at the boutique?

 

[cmadtmifyb0623]

Also I’ve heard some people say take it to a flagship store (BH, NYC, or Miami) to have the hole punched. Is there a reason why? Do they have an actual machine or something that lines it up perfectly rather the regular boutiques that just hand measure?

I hope this isn't a silly question as I've searched this thread and haven't found a direct answer...
I know belt buckles only come, paired with a leather strap, in a kit. When you are shopping in the store, do the kits come preassembled or can I select any in-stock buckle and any in-stock strap and make my own "kit"? Since the website only sells buckles in predefined kits with assigned reference numbers, I'm imagining there is some possibility of them only selling in prearranged pairs...

Yes in the boutiques you can select any belt strap and buckle, pretty much mix and match.
