Q: How do I know if Size S (100 cm) will fit me? A: This belt is listed as Size S with a 100 cm length. The best way to check the fit is to measure a belt you already wear from the buckle to the hole you use most, or measure the point where you plan to wear it. A well-fitting belt usually fastens around the middle hole rather than the first or last.
Q: Is this belt best worn on the waist or on the hips? A: Belts of this type can be worn either way depending on your measurements and styling preference. With its medium-width design, it works well through trouser loops and can also be worn to define the waist if the length suits where you want it to sit.
Q: What width is this belt? A: The belt is approximately 3 cm wide. That makes it a versatile width that can work with denim, trousers, and many dresses or blazers, provided your garment has suitably sized belt loops if you plan to thread it through them.
Q: What is this belt made from? A: This piece is crafted in brown leather with gold-tone hardware and is labelled as made in Italy.
Q: What condition is the belt in? A: The overall condition is Very Good. The leather shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches consistent with careful vintage wear.
Q: Does the leather stretch over time? A: Leather belts can soften and give slightly with regular wear, but the change is usually modest. It is best to choose a size that already fits well rather than relying on stretch to create the right fit.
Q: How should I care for a vintage leather belt? A: Store it in its dust bag in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep it away from rain, oils, hand cream, direct sunlight, strong heat, and rough surfaces, and wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth after wear.
Q: What comes with this item? A: The included product information for this listing notes a box and dust bag.
Q: Can extra holes be added or can the belt be shortened? A: Minor adjustments are sometimes possible through a professional leather specialist. For a vintage designer piece, any alteration should be done carefully, as changes can affect the original finish and long-term value.
Q: How do you check authenticity? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is reviewed by in-house experts using construction, leather, hardware, branding, and overall craftsmanship checks, so you can shop vintage with confidence.
