A belt is an important part of your image. Choosing one that suits you is not, therefore, unimportant. Before buying a man's belt, it is a good idea to consider the following points:
- The length of the belt
- The width of the belt
- The materials
- The buckle
Remember also that it is an accessory, never lose sight of the clothes and, especially, the men's shoes or women's shoes you want to wear it with. This will influence the colour and, for example, the width of the belt.
Think about the following features when you choose a belt:
- Size: A belt must be the right size for your waist; a belt which is too long is not advisable at all. By looking at the label on a pair of trousers that fit you well, or simply by measuring your waist with a tape measure, you can find out how long your belt needs to be.
- Materials: There are belts in all types of materials: leather, fabric, leather and fabric mix... These materials will make the accessory more or less formal, leather being more suitable for an elegant look.
- Colour: When choosing the colour of your belt, think carefully about the clothes and shoes you will wear it with.
To combine a man's belt with other clothes, the following guidelines are useful:
- The colour of your shoes: A belt is an accessory, so use it to highlight a style already defined by your clothes and footwear. It is usually recommended that a belt, especially a leather belt, should go well with your shoes.
- The construction of the belt: If the belt is braided, you can combine it with more casual garments and footwear.
- The width of the belt: A wide belt is more suitable for wearing with jeans and casual trousers, while a narrow belt is always more suitable for smart trousers and suits.
- The buckle: Small, sober buckles are usually more suitable for formal styles and garments, such as dress suits and trousers. Large buckles are usually associated with more informal styles and are often worn with jeans.
- Decoration: Less decoration equals greater formality. A rule for footwear that also applies to belts. If you want to wear a belt on an elegant occasion, it is better if there are not too many decorative elements.
- Fitting: A detail that can bring a touch of style much appreciated by connoisseurs. When adjusting your belt, you can choose between the American style (use the first or second hole) or the European style (use the third hole).
