Woven Fabric Belt for Men and Women, Blue and White

It is a warm morning and you are pulling on a pair of light trousers or shorts, looking for something that holds everything in place without feeling heavy. This blue and white braided fabric belt is made for exactly that kind of moment. The strap is soft and lightweight, which makes it pleasant to wear when the temperature climbs.

The braided weave is the detail worth noticing. There are no punched holes, so the prong of the buckle slips between the threads wherever suits you. That means you can set the fit to the exact centimetre rather than settling for the nearest hole, and adjust it again after a big lunch or a long day.

The buckle is a classic prong style in brown, which adds a tidy finishing touch against the blue and white of the strap. The closing is traditional: the prong goes through the weave at the point you choose and the belt sits securely at your waist. It is a simple accessory that works with most casual outfits without trying too hard.

The belt is unisex, so it suits men and women equally. It measures 3.2 cm wide and 5 mm thick, and comes in three lengths: 100 cm, 110 cm and 120 cm. To pick yours, measure a belt that already fits you well, from the buckle to the hole where you fasten it, then choose the closest length among the three. It also makes an easy gift, or a quiet treat for yourself.

Looking after it takes very little effort. If it gets marked, a hand wash in lukewarm water is enough, then leave it to dry in the open air.
