Elegant Hermes belt featuring 24 buckle. https://g.co/gemini/share/7267b29604b8 Belt is 48” total length This specific design is part of the brand\'s more modern and graphic collections, moving away from the traditional \"H\" logo. Key Features of the Route 24 Buckle Design: It features a shield-shaped (or highway sign-shaped) metal frame. The name \"Route 24\" is a clever nod to the legendary Hermès flagship store address at 24 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré in Paris. Materials: It is known for its leather inlay, where a piece of calfskin (often Epsom or Swift leather) is set into the metal frame. This allows the buckle to match or contrast with the belt strap. Hardware: It is typically found in brushed (matte) or polished palladium (silver-tone) or gold-plated finishes. Size: It is most commonly produced for the 32 mm belt straps (the standard width for men\'s and unisex Hermès belts). Meaning & Context The \"24\" in Hermès products almost always refers to their historical home in Paris, which they have occupied since 1880. By styling it as a \"Route\" sign, Hermès plays with the idea of a journey or a roadmap to the heart of the maison. Because of the leather inlay, this buckle is often considered more \"understated\" than the iconic Constance H buckle, as the leather softens the look of the metal.
