I’ve requested this before many years ago at the Madison store and was denied... the most they will do is add 2 (or is it 3?) extra holes to the belt. I don’t know if the policy has changed, but worth giving it a try! Good luck!!!

It’s 2 now. I had two added last month to all my straps.
Thank you, guys. I’ve had 2 holes done before as well. Do you think they will do 2 holes 20 cm apart from the original holes?

Hi guys,
This is a question about customization. I hope it’s ok if I ask it here.
If I buy a lightly used 110cm crocodile porosus belt will they reduce it to 85cm?
If not, will a decent cobbler do it?
Can you recommend one in NY or Miami?
Thank you!

P.S. I FINALLY found a belt that matches my K25. Been looking for 3 months!

Hello! Not sure if this helps, but a few years ago the craftsman at my boutique shortened a chamonix/epsom belt strap for me from 110cm to 80. After searching for the strap for ages, my SA offered this service when one finally popped up, but in the wrong size. The work was done beautifully! I'm not sure if they still offer this service, but worth asking, perhaps with NY after sales dept. Good luck! :flowers:

Hi all, I thought I would ask the pros here about the cost of the 42 mm "kit" buckles separate new in store in the USA. I remember looking at the display the last time I was at the boutique and talking to the SA about it, but didn't ask about the price and I have a 42 mm belt-strap on the way sans buckle. I also can't seem to find them listed separately online. My biggest hope is for a palladium Mors but I'd probably settle for gold as well.

I could ring up my SA and ask, but I'd like to be ready to buy at that point.

Hermes will not sell a buckle without a strap. They will sell a strap without a buckle. Perhaps if you can find one, they will let you return the strap you just bought and repurchase it with a buckle. Good luck!

Hi, I Jesé to do this regularly at the NY boutiques that had craftsmen. I don’t know if the still do it as I am not sure of the edges these day (they used to cut the straight edge and then resin it), good luck!

Or, if you think you may like/need other colours, keep the strap, order a new kit and then you will have 2 belts for the price of 1 plus extra strap.

Oh I see, thanks so much for your help. My SA had seemed to imply switching out buckles would be easy, but perhaps its as you said and she was expecting me to buy a new strap each time.

Also I checked the size again and was a confused and actually the strap I am getting is 38 mm, but I found a good price on a singular 42 mm buckle online and was hoping it will fit a 38 (for a women's fashion belt look that is) if anyone could enlighten me again.

38?

The only sizes I know are 24, 32 & 42. Are you sure it's just a strap and not an entire belt from another line?
