Hey guys I'm not sure if this has been asked but I just bought my first H belt and have some questions regarding storing it:

- Is it better to keep the belt in the Hermes box or should I hang it somewhere else? I once read that leather belts should be hung to prevent them from cracking and stuffs like that?

- Should I remove the buckle from the belt when storing it? I'm not sure if it's because the belt is new or what but I always find it hard to attach/remove the buckle to/from the strap and I'm afraid doing that frequently will make it crack easily. There seems to be cracks around those holes already :(.

Thanks in advance guys ;)!
I usually store mine in the box, with the buckle taken off. I don't wear mine that much, seems a lot more fragile than my other belts. I went for a gold/black belt, I only wear the gold togo side, but I've found the black box leather start to have crease lines.
 
Im on the lookout for a second H belt, I've already got a silver Guilloche buckle with gold/black strap. I was thinking of either a matte gold buckle or a enamel buckle? Which one would you recommend and what strap colours to go with it? Thanks!
 
So happy my fiancé found this ostrich and salmon coloured belt kit in hamburg for me. Need to look up the name of the salmon colour on the receipt later :)

Ok Im officially obsessed with your belt. That ostrich has me going crazy! :panic::cray:
I think the other side may be sanguine???
I'm going to the boutique today and asking about this....

this is divine! what an awesome finace! I saw in my H this same color/ostrich in a tiny agenda so perhaps they are coming to US! thx for the pics!!

I bought this after a week I bought my first H belt... it's very addicting!!!

is it possible to purchase this CDC belt kit w/out the leather? either way I am happy to get a new color leather as my H belt is quite old but in perfect shape, I think it was the first year they did the brushed silver, not sure! any info would be appreciated! thanks!

do you mean the buckle only?
no, you cannot buy the buckle only.
 
What a great thread - can you help? I have this belt and I would like to know its name. Or even what to do with it. It is about two and one half inches wide with small spaces to insert a scarf (or twilly) at regular intervals all the way around. I use it for a carre tied at the front. Anyone else have pictures of this lovely thing?

Hi, you can't buy just the buckle alone, but the strap u can... If u really want it buy both the buckle and the strap, I really love the CDC buckle! Hope it helps...

thank you so much for letting me know! I love the buckle too, I never even knew they had just a buckle until i came across it on H.com, thought it was just the whole CDC belt!

have to look through threads, I want to get the strap longer so I can use over a GM scarf....wonder how that would look....I have only ever used my H belt in jean/pant loops...hmmm...:smile1:

I think it looks great but I don't think you need a longer belt.... u need a smaller one to fit at the waist (well, I wear mine at the lower waist for low-rise jeans, so that is why I need a smaller strap). Here is a pic I saved of a fringed shawl to create this very look.... I believe this is a Constance beltkit (42mm) but I currently only own 32mm kits so I havent tried it yet with my GMs. But this gives you an idea....
