Men's Red Genuine Leather Belt with Silver-Tone Pin Buckle

Looking for a gift for a man who already owns plenty of black and brown? A red genuine leather belt is a useful present with a bit of personality, and it is something he will actually wear rather than leave in a drawer. It comes from the brand Leonardo Verrelli and is made for men.

The leather is genuine, which gives the belt its sturdy feel, and it is 4 mm thick so it holds trousers properly through a full working day. The silver-tone pin buckle is the classic fastening, simple and dependable. The red is a confident shade, so it works best with neutral colours such as navy, grey, beige or denim. At the office it keeps trousers neat and in place without fuss.

There are five lengths to choose from: 100 cm, 110 cm, 120 cm, 130 cm and 140 cm. To pick the right one, take the size closest to the waist measurement, bearing in mind that the length is taken from the end of the strap, without the buckle, to the middle hole. If you are buying for someone who already has a belt that fits well, lay it flat and measure from the buckle to the hole he uses most. The closest size to that figure is the one to choose. And if the belt turns out a little long, it can be shortened.

A little care keeps it looking good. Treat the leather with a leather cream a few times a year, and if it gets wet, let it dry naturally in the open air.
