Maybe you should go for the larger size 90cm. You can always have more holes punched in the belt if it is too large, but if it is too small you'll be stuck.

As for the question you postd in the sellers thread, Canadian H.com does not ship outside of Canada and does not accept non-Canadian credit cards. Should you order a belt strap from one of our stores, you'll almost certainly have to pay taxes, duties and brokerage fees as Hermes uses Fed Ex for shipping.

Hth!

Thanks very much for the answer!! Im going to USA and ill try to find one black/brown with gold buckle. Do you think it will be hard to find? Ill try the Hermes on Beverly Hills, San Diego and Costa Mesa!!

Today is my lucky day!! After searching for more than two months, I finally found a 13mm H buckle in gold color! Another bonus, I got the Rouge H/Rouge Casaque belt!!

Do you mind me asking where you found it? I also want one so badly.

You posted this question in another thread, but answering it would've taken it OT ... so I'll try to answer your questions here.

For more about belts, start here in the reference thread: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes-reference-library/reference-belt-pics-only-no-chatter-708255.html or here in the "chat" thread: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/official-hermes-belt-thread-562026.html

Belt kits frequently show up on US Hermes.com. Here's a lovely 32mm one in crocodile, size 80:




Belt kits vary in price by leather and buckle, and there are many variations of leathers, colors, and buckles. The one currently listed on H.com is 32 mm, which is a unisex width. This belt is also available in different widths. Here's a comparison thread: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/h-belt-in-a-new-size-791410.html

Although, pieces are available separately (and kits are generally interchangeable with each other, if they are for the same width & style belt), for the first belt, I would advise buying a kit: 1 belt + 1 buckle. Generally, the "H" belt is also called a "Constance" belt. These are widely available in stores, used, or through resellers (e.g. there are currently 73 listings under "hermes constance belt" on ebay). However, these aren't authenticated on tpf (reason here: http://forum.purseblog.com/authenticate-this-hermes/authenticate-hermes-accessory-please-read-rules-use-format-734912.html)

Determining belt size depends on where the belt will be worn. People wear belts anywhere from the high waist to low hip. The size will also vary based on whether it will be worn with a lightweight dress, dress slacks, or denim. For example, I am a 00-0 and tried the 75. It barely fit wearing jeans and was big at my waist (over a long sweater). In addition, even though the 32mm width is very popular, I didn't care for it for my style. In any case, use a measuring tape for the most accurate measurement - around the part of the body - over clothing - that will generally be worn with the belt. (If the belt is a smidge large, holes can be added in that direction, to make it fit smaller. However, there is really only room for 1 additional hole to fit larger.)

Here is a lovely pewter/black epsom/chamonix H belt from UK's Hermes.com store (size 80-110). (As you can see, there are many variations in buckles, leathers, colors, and widths available.)



Here is Hermes' belt size measuring guide.




Good luck shopping!

Hi. Everyone,

I hope is this where I can post my question that I have a out the Hermes H Belt. I was so seeing do they make a strap in black and gray? Because that's what my wife wants. Also how much does the bell

 

[ablackrabbit]

I have the hammered H buckle. So if some of you are wondering if it scratches easily, it doesn't. I LOVE it!

 

[Pomba]

It is the classic orange in togo and black box on the other side!. I already have a black/brown strap as well. So I was super excited to change it out to orange!.

I think we are twins on both belts!

Today, I finally came across the same belt (except I wanted a waist belt) so got a 75 (only one avail) in orange and black box on reverse! Silver buckle.

Now I have ghw and shw constance belt buckle and the brown/black lower waist belt and waist one in orange/black.

Excited how this all came about, unexpectantly.

 

[jp_536]

Anyway, you inspired me to share my beltkits... using various scarves and GMs as the backdrop....Here we go... all are size 32mm

First up is Black/Gold, Box/Togo calfskin

One of my coworkers had on a 32mm belt. Having seen it in person, I'm a little bit mad at myself for passing up on 32mm white kits, as I have been holding out for a 42mm white kit. 32mm is a "just right" size. Not to say 42mm is too big, just that the 32s are not as thin as I had expected. I think 32mm kits will be my new size of choice from now on. Has anyone tried adding a 42mm buckle to a 32mm strap?? Would it even fit?

Nope, it doesn't fit right. It's way too big and the strap floats with nothing to restrain it, if that makes sense. It goes all sideways cos there's no metal piece to keep it in place.

I also think the 32mm is perfect (less H in your face) and the buckle options for the 32mm are better IMO... but I do want one 42mm kit... they are sooo addicitve...

Awww thanks dear! Here are a few pics from my archives.... I can't elieve I don't have a good pic of my RS croc. I wear that non-stop in the summer.....

 

[Israeli_Flava]

Oh, I found one...

I know exactly what you mean and I was afraid of the streap floating around. Thank you! I also agree 100% on the buckle options of the 32mm. I love the guilloche and the striped one (not 100% sure on the proper name) the most. Do you know how often either of the closest boutiques get either of these buckles?

I really don't shop in DC much and when I have gone, they hardly have anything I want. I go to the H boutique in Vienna often due to my relationship with my SA. Just like with most things H, shipments vary and stopping in often is always a good idea. I call and ask my SA if he got a shipment and tell him what is on my mind... I know they get a decent amount of belt kits pretty often but the buckle combinations vary... if I see something I love, I jump on it.
