Q: What does size 65 mean on this Hermès H Belt?
A: Size 65 refers to the belt’s Hermès size and usually corresponds to a waist measurement of around 65 cm at the hole you use most. Hermès sizing is typically based on the distance from the buckle pin to the centre hole, so it is best suited to a petite fit.

Q: How can I check if size 65 will fit me?
A: The easiest way is to measure a belt you already wear comfortably, from the base of the buckle pin to the hole you use most, or measure your waist where you plan to wear this belt. If that measurement is close to 65 cm, this size should be a good match.
