Hermès H Belt vs Gucci Belt: which to buy pre-loved?
The Hermès H belt is a reversible leather strap with the H buckle, and extra straps can be swapped under the same buckle. The Gucci belt is best known for the Double G (GG Marmont) buckle in several widths. Choose Hermès for the quieter, interchangeable H; choose Gucci for the bolder logo and more width options.

Hermès H Belt vs Gucci Belt: questions
How do belt sizes work?
Both are sized by length, usually in centimetres. Check the stamped size and measure your current belt from buckle to the hole you use.
What wears first on a pre-owned belt?
The strap edges and the holes you use, plus scratches on the buckle. Ask for close-up photos of both.
Can I buy just an Hermès buckle?
Not new from Hermès, where buckles only come in a kit with a strap, though straps are sold alone. Buckle-only listings do turn up pre-owned, so check what's included.
