Handsome and Durable 100% Italian Leather Belt
I don't often consider my belts. Rarely do I think of them as fashion accessories but more so simply functional items. So when I get a new belt it is a bit of an occasion for me. When I saw this good looking belt I thought it is about time for a tectonic shift. So I ordered it and promptly forgot I did. When it arrived I was surprised as it came in a small rectangular box with a brand name I had forgotten. But once I opened it, I was delighted with the contents. It is a little larger than I expected at 1.5”. More “there” than most belts I have had. It makes its presence known. This is not necessarily a bad thing, just something I will become accustomed to. Made of Top Full Grain Leather (I thought top grain and full grain were two different things. One has been sanded and buffed to remove imperfections; the other is distinct with a more pronounced grain.) the belt is very simple. Tan with a dark edge, it has no motifs or designs on it. Even the silver metal buckle is unadorned except for a bit of a “distressed finish”. The single belt loop that secures the end of the belt is thankfully grommeted in place. No slip sliding away. In other words it is my kind of belt. This 100% Italian leather belt comes in five colors from Cognac to Coffee and a number of sizes ranging from 28” to 44”. I advise you to heed the seller's suggestion that you order one size larger than your waist size. I didn't notice it and my belt is a tad tight at the moment. That'll change in the Spring so I am not concerned. I ordered tan because I have several pairs of shoes that are very close in color. It is noted that this is an all occasion belt. I would reign that assessment in a bit and stop at sports coat and slacks. I prefer a thinner profile for a dress belt. It is, however, outstanding with a nice pair of jeans. My wife told me I would not get this review done tonight. I told her it would be a cinch. And with that I will give this handsome and durable belt 5 Stars and will hastily exit through the kitchen. Remember to be kind to your servers. Read more
