If you want one belt that simply gets on with the job, from jeans on a Saturday to smarter trousers at work, this is the one. It is a men's belt in genuine leather in a warm brown, made by Leonardo Verrelli, and it keeps things refreshingly uncomplicated. At 3.7 cm wide, it sits comfortably in the loops of casual trousers and jeans, and the brown shade pairs easily with denim and natural, earthy tones.
The strap is 3 mm thick and closes with a traditional prong buckle, the kind you have known all your life. It comes in four lengths: 90 cm, 100 cm, 110 cm and 120 cm. To pick yours, take a belt that already fits you well and measure it from the buckle to the hole you actually fasten it on, without counting the buckle itself. Then choose the length closest to that figure. If the end sticks out a little past the loop, it can be shortened without any trouble.
Looking after it takes very little effort. Rub in a little leather cream now and then, and if it ever gets wet, leave it to dry in the open air rather than near heat. Treated that way, the leather keeps its good looks and the belt stays a dependable everyday piece that gives your outfit a bit of structure.
