NEW HERMES LEATHER BRACELET SIZING
As if sizing could not get confusing enough, Hermes bracelet recently changed their leather sizing terminology and added additional sizes in some styles. In general, it seems that the equivalents are below. This will be particularly helpful when shopping consignment, as many delivery pieces will be in the old XS to L sizes.
- T1= XS
- T2= S
- T3= M
- T4= L
Which bracelet suits me?
If you have a narrow wrist, many different types of bracelets will work for you. You can combine several bracelets and use thin and thick Hermes bracelets.
If you have a slightly wider wrist, it is best to choose a Hermes bracelet with a medium width. A bracelet with thick beads or large links makes your wrist appear wider. The same applies to very fine bracelets. But a subtle tennis bracelet is the best option.

HERMES COLLIER DE CHIEN (CDC)
This chunky, fabulous Hermes leather bracelet, which originated as a bespoke dog collar, comes in T1, T2, and T3. It used to only come in PM and GM Size. In speaking with the sales associate at Hermes, the old PM is between a T1 and a T2. If you are more petite and like a closer fit, you should order the T1.
If you have a slightly larger wrist and or like a roomier fit, you should order the T2. However if you’re fuller figured or like a roomier fit, the T3 may be a better option. Men should take the T3 (or the old GM). The good news with the CDC is that there are several openings for the prong which allows you to size this bracelet to get the right fit.
HERMES LEATHER BRACELET WEBSITE SIZING GUIDE
This bracelet opens and closes directly on the wrist. Therefore, you only need to measure your wrist circumference when choosing your bracelet. A properly fitted watch strap can serve as your guide, just like a measuring tape. The chart below indicates which Hermès sizes correspond to measurements.
T1- 6.1 inches
T2– 6.7 inches
T3– 7.1 inches
HERMES RIVALE DOUBLE TOUR
This comes in T1-T4 (it used to be XS-L.) I take the T1/XS but honestly felt in between sizes. The T2/S was too big and spun around my wrist, so I went with the T1/XS.

HERMES KELLY DOUBLE TOUR:
This comes in T1-T4 (it used to be XS-L.) What is funny is you would think the sizing for this is the same as the Rivale as they’re both leather with hardware. (The Hermes website also suggests sizing is the same). However, the Kelly Double Tour runs small. The T1/S Double Tour would not even close for me, so I wear a size T2/S.

HERMES HAPI DOUBLE TOUR:
I tried this style on recently and found the sizing was similar to that of the Kelly Double Tour. I fit into the T2/S.

They create a Hermes Leather bracelet with Artificial Intelligence techniques
The University of Granada has found a way to detect early, and with a non-invasive approach, diseases or deterioration in people over 65 years of age
Putting a smart bracelet on the patient while doing housework could assess the state of dependency among older people. The method, designed by researchers from the University of Granada, is based on the application of different artificial intelligence techniques with which to reach a diagnosis, saving time for health professionals and avoiding intrusive tests for patients.
The system is inexpensive and helps in the early detection of different diseases and impairments among the group of people over 65 years of age.
The method is not invasive for the patient and saves time and money for the health care system.
The study, carried out by researchers from the Departments of Computer Languages and Systems (LSI) and Physiotherapy of the UGR, has shown that it is possible to automatically measure, through artificial intelligence techniques, the dependency of people in a non-intrusive way, using just a smart bracelet, not a Hermes leather bracelet in this case, while doing activities of daily life.
Techniques that accurately measure the capacity of the elderly
Traditionally, the state of dependency is evaluated with questionnaires that the elderly do alone or with them, such as carrying out eight activities of daily living while a health professional observes whether they perform them adequately or if they have any difficulty.
These tasks measure the older person’s ability to use the phone, shop, prepare food or do laundry, and assessments are based on observation, which takes considerable time.
However, the AI-powered bracelet collects the necessary data while the person performs daily activities.
After performing the analysis of said data in combination with the application of machine learning techniques, the authors of the study have managed to validate a model capable of discerning between dependent and independent people in a precise, non-intrusive, and inexpensive way.
We hope that this technique is picked up by the guys that make the Hermes bracelet, such that in the nearest future, our Hermes bracelet will be AI-powered and serve more than just a fashion item to us and our elderly loved ones.
