Hi everyone,

I love the 42 mm belt but not the buckle: they are humongous! For that reason I only have one but would like more. Can anyone confirm if the 38 mm buckle will work with a 42mm belt?

Thank you!

does the code mean anything on the inside of the belt kit box lid ? the belt is from 2007, thanks in advance!

Hi,

I’m a newbie to H and would love to buy my first H belt. Due to the current circumstances right now, I’m not able to go to the H store and try on sizes. I wear a Gucci Marmont belt on my waist in the size 80 but use the 2nd to the last hole the most (making it one hole away from the tightest fit; I can also wear the belt on the last hole on my skinnier days hehe). Would I only be able to fit a size 80 in H or can I get away with a 75? Thank you in advance for your advice!

I have 9 Gucci belts and 4 H. I wear the same on both (unless I went for. a hipster or high-waisted, cinched-in look).

I probably wouldn’t go smaller, but I would add an extra hole into the belt for more versatility.

I say go big or go home!
While stopping through at Changi Airport last month, I popped into the Hermès store there and I was wearing my gold 42mm Constance at the time. The SA’s gave me a bunch of compliments and a bunch of look books and advertising for my archives at home.
Size does matter!

Hello everyone,

So I am interested to know if anyone has ever bought a belt buckle alone from a preloved place and ended up having a custom belt made. I understand that I could buy used but I would love the specific leather color combo and I know that Hermes doesn't sell it, also they are just as good without the Hermes boutique price. I am young so please understand I don't have a lot of money to even buy a used belt kit. Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you, Ryan

Hi Ryan, the thing is..it's very difficult to authenticate just buckles, I don't know anyone who does. You mentioned you don't have a lot of money..but I would just continue to stash away some savings to purchase a kit from a reputable seller. Good luck to you.

This was my last belt purchase before the lockdown. I am glad I got it actually because it's one of the few things I can still wear whilst going for a walk or grocery shopping.

Hi, i got a constance 24mm belt set (shiny) buckle recently from a shopper. after just 1 wear, i noticed a number of scratches on the buckle. no rough handling i recalled. is this something that is quite unusual of an authentic buckle? ts!

I suspect it’s not unusual. My Constance 24mm shiny palladium buckle showed scratches very very quickly and after around 18 months of pretty much daily use is absolutely covered in scratches if I look closely at it!

Does someone happen to know if the simple Collier de Chien belt (the one with only the clasp in the front) was discontinued?
