How to care for your Belt

While leather is a strong, natural material, it can also be delicate. Try to avoid moisture, heat, or chemicals as they can damage it. Use a cloth to remove light stains; for trickier stains, leather items should be taken to a specialized cleaner. If the leather gets wet, leave it out to dry at air temperature.

• Do not wash
• Do not use bleach
• Do not iron
• Do not dry clean
• Do not tumble dry

Have you always heard people say “your belts must match your shoes”?

I have a friend who works in a formal organisation but he usually does not take dressing serious, especially his belts and shoes. Being a native attire man in Nigeria he travelled to England for a conference, meeting highly placed dignitaries and colleagues. 

This, my guy, was to wear black shoes and needed a black belt, unfortunately, his only option was a brown belt, ideally, it is not a good match to wear such for that occasion. Lo and behold! he remembered that I’d recommended a reversible belt to him before that had the option of black and brown colour.

This could have been a saviour but he did not see the need for it.

Why did I share this story? Sometimes we do not think of the rainy day which could come unaware.  

You can now take just a belt with you when travelling knowing that you could always switch to the side that matches your shoes.
