Leonardo Verrelli Grey Leather Belt with Gold-Tone Buckle

Soft, quiet grey is what sets this belt apart, and it sits comfortably with almost anything in your wardrobe: navy and charcoal trousers, dark denim, a white shirt, a knitted jumper in the colder months. The gold-coloured buckle adds a small, warm note against the grey without drawing attention to itself. Made by Leonardo Verrelli and designed for both men and women, it works as easily at the office as on a weekend away.

The belt is made from genuine leather, 4 mm thick, and closes with a classic pin buckle that is simple to adjust. It comes in three lengths, 100 cm, 110 cm and 120 cm. Each length is measured from the end of the leather to the central hole, not including the buckle. If the fit needs fine-tuning, the belt can be shortened to the length you want.

To choose your size, take a belt that already fits you well and measure it from the buckle to the hole you use most, then pick the closest of the three lengths. To keep the leather looking its best, treat it now and then with a suitable leather cream, and if it gets wet, let it dry naturally in the open air. It also makes an easy gift, since a belt is something people reach for every day.
