Leather Belts

Brown or black, a men's leather belt is the accessory most men wear every day, and those two colours lead this section. Widths centre on 3.8 cm for jeans, with narrower straps of 3.3 or 3.5 cm for smarter trousers. Silver-tone prong buckles are the norm, while black and gold-tone finishes change the mood.

Split leather and reversible models complete the genuine leather straps. If a belt gets caught in the rain, let it dry naturally away from a radiator, and feed it with a leather balm now and then. On warm days, braided fabric belts feel lighter.
