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
Thanks, wonder why I didn't think about storing it alternatively haha
 
Does anybody know when Hermes changed the CDC Belt style from 38mm to the wider 42mm and then to 50mm? and when the belt had an extra plate in the back vs. the style with no plate in the back? There are a lot of vintage belts out there but the sizing is all over the place.

I know the older belts used even numbers and then they switched to odd numbers but I don't know that occurred. Also, has anyone see the CDC is BACK?.

What's the opinion on the adjustable belts?

I wanted to get a CdC 24, but was told in Paris FSH it is out of production. Anyone knows for sure that's the case? Then I would aim for the adjustable Kelly 18, which is still available.

Hi! I was waiting for cdc 24 black with ghw for a long time and finally found one at CDG duty free this year. I have seen black phw, gold phw and ghw on h.com, also some boutiques in US still carry it- your SA might be able to source it for you.
I like the look of it and the fact that I can wear it on any high or mid rise jeans/trousers or even on jackets. Kelly 18 seemed a bit to thin for trousers to me so got 24. cdc belt.JPG

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?
You have to push it all the way through the hole. They showed me this a few years back. Mine was falling off too.

Thank you so much! It looks great on you!

I was just at CDG a couple of days ago, but unfortunately not the terminals with H stores.

I will stalk the website more frequently now…

Hi, does anyone know if the regular kelly belt comes in nata or another creme color?
I know there's the Kelly garden party belt, which comes in nata, but I would like to have the normal one.
Thanks in advance

Hi I was also looking into this sometime back. I have only seen the K18 in blanc. No other creamy option.
 
Does anyone with a Kelly belt find that it loosens, slips, or doesn’t stay in the sizing you put it throughout the day? Or once you adjust to how tight you wish, it will generally stay there? I Am considering one for around the waist wear and have one from a fast fashion brand (obvi quality can’t be compared here) that constantly loosens up so I have to retighten every time a stand up or sit down, or take a deep breath, or sneeze…
