First off, the obvious: the official Hermes online store. Duh. You can find stuff like the Quizz Ferme-Tout buckle with an orange strap. Orange! Bold choice, but hey, you do you. It’s probably gonna cost ya though, Hermes ain’t cheap, never has been.
Then there’s the whole “brick and mortar” thing. The content mentions “Hermes Stores Australia” and “Is There Hermes in South Africa?”. Now, I’m no geography whiz, but that suggests there *are* Hermes stores in some countries. Maybe they got what you want, maybe they don’t. Call ’em up! Seriously, a quick phone call beats hours of scrolling online. Plus, sometimes the experience of actually *seeing* and *touching* the belt is worth the trip. I mean, you’re gonna be wearing this thing for years (hopefully!), so you wanna make sure the leather feels *right*, ya know?
And then… the dark, glorious world of resale. TheRealReal is mentioned, boasting “Hermès belts on sale at up to 75% off retail”. 75% OFF! Now we’re talkin’! But, and this is a HUGE but, be careful out there. There are *so* many fakes floating around. They claim authentication by experts, which is good, but still… do your own research. Look at pics online, compare the stitching, the leather quality, the buckle design. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is, right? Common sense, people!
Speaking of buckles, the content also mentions specific ones: Neo Lift, Neo Etrier, Quizz Ferme-Tout. They come in different colors, mostly brown, which is safe, I guess. Personally, I’d go for something a little more interesting, but hey, that’s just me. The buckles also seem to come with reversible leather straps, which is kinda cool. Two belts in one! Sort of…
Oh, and I almost forgot! The text mentions “Women’s Belts” and “Hermès Belts On Sale”, but then it goes on about “Yellow gold plated – Men – Belts on the” and “Stainless steel – Men – Belts on the”. See? This is where it gets confusing! Are we talking about mens belts or women’s? Is the gold plated stuff for women? Is the stainless steel one for men? Who even knows anymore? Just browse carefully and make sure you’re looking at the right section!
Also, a side note: Apple Watch Hermès locations are mentioned. Now, I’m not sure if they sell *actual* Hermes belts, or just Apple Watch straps. It’s probably the latter, but hey, worth checking if you’re in the area.
