Perfect for work-to-weekend dressing, this Hermès reversible H d’Ancre belt in taupe and blue adds effortless polish. Pair the taupe side with tailored suiting for meetings, then flip to blue to elevate evening denim or a monochrome look. A refined staple for city breaks, dinners and smart-casual events.
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 Hermès size 75 mean, and how do I know if it fits me? A: Hermès belt sizes are measured in centimetres from the base of the buckle (the tongue) to the hole you use most. If your waist or hip at the point you’ll wear the belt measures around 75 cm, size 75 is the intended fit. For reference, 75 cm is approximately 29.5 inches. If you’re between sizes, measuring an existing belt from the buckle to your most‑used hole is the most reliable method.
Q: Is this belt reversible and how do I switch sides? A: Yes. The strap is reversible (taupe/blue). To change sides, gently disengage the strap from the buckle pin, flip the strap to the other colour, and re‑thread it through the buckle so the pin seats in the holes on the new side. No tools are required; take care not to force the leather.
Q: What buckle and width does this belt use? A: It features the H d’Ancre buckle in silver‑tone metal and an approximately 3 cm strap width. Hermès commonly pairs H‑style buckles with either 32 mm or 38 mm systems; this piece corresponds to the slimmer, ~3 cm profile shown in the Measurements.
Q: Can I mix and match this buckle or strap with other Hermès components? A: Yes—Hermès belts are modular. You can pair H d’Ancre and other Hermès buckles with Hermès straps as long as the widths match (e.g., 32 mm buckle with a 32 mm strap). Always confirm the strap/buckle width before mixing components.
Q: What does the blind stamp Y (2020) signify on this belt? A: The blind stamp is Hermès’ internal year code. The letter Y corresponds to 2020 production in the current no‑shape letter system. Placement and appearance of the stamp vary by item, but the letter indicates the year the leather good was made.
Q: Will the silver‑tone hardware tarnish or scratch? A: Hermès belt hardware is typically plated (for example, palladium or permabrass). Plating resists tarnish in normal use, though fine hairline scratches occur naturally with wear. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after use and avoid abrasive polishes or chemicals.
Q: How adjustable is it, and how many holes does a typical Hermès strap have? A: Most Hermès reversible belt straps have three evenly spaced holes, giving a small adjustment range around the tagged size. If you need additional holes or resizing, consult a trusted leather specialist; adding holes may affect aesthetics and resale value.
Q: How should I care for the leather and store the belt? A: Wipe the strap with a clean, soft, dry cloth. Keep away from oils, solvents, and prolonged moisture or heat. When storing, keep the belt in its dust bag and box, coiled loosely or laid flat, and out of direct sunlight to preserve colour and shape.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece, box and dust bag are included.
Q: Is this item authentic? A: Yes. Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously authenticated by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of leather, stitching, heat stamps, blind stamps, and hardware. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can share additional product information on request.
