From office hours to weekend brunch, this Louis Vuitton LV Circle Reversible Belt (size 80) brings effortless polish. Choose Monogram canvas for classic sophistication or switch to pink leather for a fresh pop of colour, while the gold-tone LV Circle buckle completes the look. Perfect for cinching a blazer, defining a dress, or elevating denim.
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 size is a Louis Vuitton belt marked 80 and who does it fit? A: Size 80 means the belt measures about 80 centimetres from the buckle pin to the middle hole, which is roughly 31.5 inches. It generally suits waists around 75–85 cm depending on where you wear it (waist vs. high hip). For best results, measure a belt you already use from the buckle to your most‑used hole and compare.
Q: How wide is this LV Circle Reversible Belt and will it fit my belt loops? A: This piece is approximately 3 cm wide. That width fits most standard loops on jeans and tailored trousers, but if your loops are particularly narrow, please check they accommodate a 3 cm strap.
Q: How does the reversible function work—do I need to unscrew the buckle? A: No tools are required. The LV Circle buckle is attached with a swivel mechanism: gently pull the buckle away from the strap and rotate it 180 degrees to switch between the Monogram canvas and pink leather sides. Do not attempt to unscrew the hardware.
Q: What materials and finish does this belt have? A: It features Monogram coated canvas on one side and smooth pink leather on the reverse, finished with gold‑tone hardware and an LV Circle buckle for a refined signature look.
Q: What does the date code BC3118 mean on this belt? A: Louis Vuitton date codes from this era use two letters for the workshop and four digits for week and year. BC3118 decodes to week 31 of 2018 at a European LV workshop associated with the code BC, which is consistent with the Made in Spain stamp on this item.
Q: I heard LV now uses microchips instead of date codes—is this belt affected? A: Louis Vuitton began transitioning to embedded microchips around 2021. Since this belt dates to 2018, it correctly carries a stamped date code rather than a microchip‑only identifier.
Q: Can I add extra holes or shorten this belt? A: Policies vary by store and region, and boutiques may not offer hole punching or shortening. Many owners use a reputable leather specialist for adjustments. Please note that modifications can affect after‑sales options and resale value, so consider carefully before altering.
Q: How should I care for the canvas, leather and buckle? A: Wipe the canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Keep the leather side dry and wipe with a clean, dry cloth; avoid oils and solvents. To minimise colour transfer on the light pink leather, avoid prolonged contact with dark denim and dyed garments. Store the belt flat or gently rolled, away from heat and humidity, and keep the buckle from rubbing against hard surfaces to reduce hairline scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This belt comes with its box and receipt as listed. If an accessory such as a dust bag is not mentioned under Accessories on this page, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this belt? A: Every piece is vetted by our in‑house experts through multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date code, and cross‑checked against known brand specifications. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
