Q: How does size 80 fit and how do I measure correctly? A: Size 80 corresponds to approximately 80 centimetres from the buckle prong to the middle hole (about 31.5 inches). Measure around the point you plan to wear the belt (waist or hips) and compare to 80 cm; if you fall between sizes, choose the larger so you can fasten at or near the middle hole for the best fit.
Q: What are the belt’s width and materials? A: This is a medium 25 mm (2.5 cm) belt in smooth calfskin leather with a calfskin lining and a gold‑tone Triomphe buckle with pin fastening.
Q: Will the 25 mm width fit my belt loops? A: 25 mm is a classic dress/casual width that fits most trouser and denim loops. If unsure, measure the height of your belt loops and compare with 2.5 cm.
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 are the belt’s width and materials? A: This is a medium 25 mm (2.5 cm) belt in smooth calfskin leather with a calfskin lining and a gold‑tone Triomphe buckle with pin fastening.
Q: Is this belt reversible or is the buckle detachable? A: This vintage piece is single‑sided and not reversible. CELINE also offers separate reversible options with detachable Triomphe buckles under its “La Boucle Celine” line, but those are different models from this one.
Q: Will the 25 mm width fit my belt loops? A: 25 mm is a classic dress/casual width that fits most trouser and denim loops. If unsure, measure the height of your belt loops and compare with 2.5 cm.
Q: How should I care for the leather and buckle? A: After wear, wipe with a soft dry cloth. Keep away from water, oils, hand sanitiser and perfumes. Condition sparingly with a neutral leather conditioner only when the leather feels dry. Store flat or hanging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. For the gold‑tone buckle, use a soft cloth and avoid abrasives; fine hairline scratches are normal with use.
Q: What does the Triomphe emblem represent? A: The emblem is inspired by the interlocking chain motifs that encircle Paris’s Arc de Triomphe, an archival house code revived prominently by Hedi Slimane in recent years.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. For this piece, a box is included. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: What is the condition of this belt? A: Good overall with signs of wear from use. The interior shows a light trace of use, and the hardware is shiny with light scratches.
Q: Where was it made? A: Italy.
Q: Can I add extra holes or shorten the belt? A: Extra holes can be added by a professional cobbler. Shortening a pin‑buckle belt is more involved and may alter stamp or hardware alignment, so only use a specialist. Any alteration is permanent and may affect future resale value.
