Product Description
This Cartier Santos De Cartier belt in black leather with gold-tone hardware is a refined choice for business meetings, formal dinners or polished everyday wear. Finished with the signature Santos pin buckle, it adds a sophisticated Cartier touch to tailored trousers and smart evening looks.
Q: What does size 95 mean for this belt? A: Size 95 usually refers to the measurement in centimetres from the buckle pin to the centre hole. As a general guide, it often suits around a 34–36 inch waist, but the best way to confirm fit is to measure a belt you already wear and compare it with a 95 cm centre-hole length.
Q: What is the width of this belt? A: This belt is approximately 3 cm wide. That is a classic dress-belt width, making it easy to wear with tailoring, smart trousers and more polished everyday looks.
Q: Can this belt be adjusted if needed? A: Cartier leather belts are generally designed so they can be adjusted by a professional if required. As this is a pre-owned size 95 belt, we recommend confirming the current fit first and only using a trusted leather specialist for any permanent alteration.
Q: Is a 3 cm Cartier belt suitable for formal wear? A: Yes. A 3 cm black belt is a refined, versatile width that works especially well for business, occasion and evening dressing, while still being easy to style with smart-casual outfits.
Q: How can I tell if the belt will fit me well? A: The safest method is to measure from the buckle pin to the hole you use most on a belt that already fits you. If that measurement is close to 95 cm, this size is likely to be a good match. Small fit differences can still depend on where you wear the belt, such as at the waist or hips.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
