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.
Q: What does Louis Vuitton belt size 100 mean? A: Louis Vuitton belt sizes are measured from the buckle pin to the middle hole. A size 100 means the fastening point at the middle hole is 100 cm from the pin. The strap on this piece is approximately 4 cm wide.
Q: What waist size will a 100 cm belt typically fit? A: Thanks to five adjustment holes spaced about 2.5 cm apart, a size 100 usually fits around 95–105 cm (about 37.5–41 inches), depending on where you wear it (waist or hips) and the hole you use. The most reliable method is to measure a belt you already wear from the pin to your most‑used hole and match that measurement.
Q: Is this belt reversible? A: This specific piece is described as Damier Graphite canvas with a black leather lining and a matte black LV Initial buckle. It is not listed as reversible, so it is intended to be worn with the canvas facing out.
Q: What is Damier Graphite? A: Damier Graphite is Louis Vuitton’s modern black‑and‑grey take on the historic Damier checkerboard motif, introduced in the late 2000s for the men’s line. It offers a discreet, contemporary look that pairs well with both casual and smart outfits.
Q: How should I care for the coated canvas and leather lining? A: Wipe the canvas gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry. Avoid alcohol‑based products, solvents, harsh cleaners and excessive heat. For the leather lining, use a dry, soft cloth and avoid oils or heavy conditioners. Store the belt flat or loosely coiled, away from direct sunlight.
Q: Will the matte black LV buckle scratch? A: Matte and plated finishes can show surface marks with wear. To minimise scratching, avoid contact with hard surfaces and metal rivets on jeans, and store the belt separately from other hardware.
Q: Can I add extra holes or shorten the belt if needed? A: Additional holes or shortening are possible through a reputable leather specialist; however, any alteration may affect warranty support from the original brand and future resale value. Policies on adding holes can vary by boutique, so we recommend consulting a professional before modifying.
Q: Does this belt have a date code or microchip? A: Many earlier Louis Vuitton belts have a stamped date code on the leather side. Newer pieces may instead feature an embedded microchip without a visible date code. As a pre‑loved item, the presence and format can vary by year of production.
Q: What is the condition and what’s included? A: This item is graded Very Good, with signs of use on the holes and light overall wear inside. It comes with a box, as listed under Accessories.
