Hello there! I’m pretty new here but I need your opinion, please

I have 2 Hermes belts in Togo leather and I have noticed that the other one feels thinner. Is this normal or a quality issue?
 
Funny that you ask that. I have been waiting on it and asking my SA about it, I think, since last year? Finally, I saw another H belt that would fit my needs in this same color so I recently got it. Will post it later.
I wanted to get it last year, but just couldn’t decide which hardware to get and then when I finally decided a few months ago it wasn’t available. It was always available online when I checked and I really didn’t think it would sell out since it’s not a seasonal colour.
 
I’m looking to get a 24mm belt to use as a waist belt, however the 13mm I currently have and use as a waist belt has an issue: it can fall off! I guess it’s because the buckle design means it isn’t secured like a normal belt? Does anyone have this issue? Should I opt for the Kelly belt as a waist belt instead since the buckle is secure?

I can only tell you that I absolutely love the Kelly belt as it is so versatile. I wear it with a suit, over a dress and in autumn/winter over chunky oversized cardigans or even over a coat. It always fits perfectly. Currently have it in black, etoupe and gold and am on the waitlist for a white one as well :heart:
 
I loooove the Kelly belt and have bought multiple versions. I recently wanted to buy a thicker more casual belt to go with jeans, but also dress up and wear professionally, and shyed away from the classic H or constance H buckles. I wear more yellow gold, so went with the H au carre buckle in yellow gold. Haven't seen much online about that and curious your takes on it! Like or do you think classic would have been a better investment? I typically don't go for logo heavy items, so hence why I shyed away, though know it also looks great on so many!
 
Has anyone seen the Kelly Belt in Rouge H recently in store or on the website?

A bit delayed in posting, but here is the belt I got in Rouge H in lieu of the Kelly belt because I got tired of waiting. Snatched it up while my size was still available. My first belt kit, so have to get used to not having everything attached.

38mm reversible belt - yay or nay?
I’m looking for a wider belt for my high waist outfit. Around 40mm width. I was planning to go with the classic Gucci belt, but realized Hermes has the 38mm version in the men’s section. I own and love my Hermes 24mm belt. I thought I could get the 38mm version instead of the Gucci, but somehow the look, maybe it’s the leather grain and the sheen in the picture, just looks so masculine. What do you think?
The pro is that it’s reversible and hence it’s two belts. The con is that the smallest size seems to be 80. I prefer 75, especially I will mostly wear it high waisted.
 
Hi All,

I've just got my first belt kit in Epsom and Swift.

May be silly questions, but just wonder what is the best way to store the belt:

1.Is it preferable to store the Epsom side rolled in to minimize the crease forming or should be Swift on the inside?

2. Is it preferable to leave the buckle on the belt to minimize the stretch for the hole if I do use it continuously for few days?

TIA
 
remove the buckle
to keep the strap straight and not curved in favour of one side
pull straight through the thumb and index finger
roll in alternate directions for storage - but don't become obsessive about it

you will only stretch the hole if the fit is tight - not inserting and removing the buckle

There are so many variants of leather on offer for the straps, you should be able to find one to your taste.
Hermes will add two more holes for you, making an 80 closer to 75.
