The strap of this belt is 3 mm thick, cut from genuine leather in black, and you can feel that thickness the moment you pick it up. It gives the belt a body that holds its shape rather than flopping about, while still bending comfortably around your waist. It comes from Leonardo Verrelli and is made for men.
It measures 100 cm in length and 3.5 cm in width, a width that threads through the loops of most trousers, from a weekday chino to a pair of office trousers. It closes with a classic pin buckle: slide the pin into the hole that suits you and you are done. If the strap turns out a touch long for you, it can be shortened without any trouble.
Black is the easy colour to live with. Wear this belt with jeans on a Saturday, with chinos on a Tuesday, or with a suit when the day calls for one, and it never looks out of place. Because it is real leather, it rewards a little care, so give it a rub of leather balm now and then to keep it supple and help it last.
To pick your length, grab a belt that already fits you well. Measure it from the buckle to the hole you fasten it on, then compare that figure with the 100 cm of this one. The length of this belt is measured from the buckle to the middle hole, so that comparison tells you straight away whether it will sit right on you.
