A belt for a man is not just an accessory that fulfills its main purpose, maintaining the waistband of trousers, but also an indicator of style, taste and social status. The choice of this subject must be meaningful and follow certain rules. In addition, you need to know how to wear and care for the belt correctly.
Which hole is better for a man to fasten his belt to: how to make a choice?
A stylish, expensive belt is always beautiful and attractive.
A man must ensure the integrity and well-groomed appearance of his accessory, so as not to spoil the image with a deformed or cracked product. To do this, you also need to store the product correctly and not wear it for several days in a row. Experts advise changing belts every day or every other day so that they are not subject to deformation and last as long as possible.
According to the rules of men's suits, the accessory must be fastened on the third or middle hole. The free end is threaded into a loop and thus secured at the waist. This method allows you to achieve the most harmonious image.
If the belt is too long, do not fasten it to the fourth hole. You need to shorten it yourself or take it to a workshop.
For carrying the buckle at home you need to perform the following algorithm of actions:
- Unscrew the bolt that holds the buckle and remove it;
- From the third hole, measure the waist size and trim off the excess;
- fasten the buckle in a new place.
The procedure is quite simple and does not require special skills or complex tools. Any man can independently shorten the length of a leather belt, making it acceptable according to the size of his own waist.
Basic rules for selecting and wearing a belt that every man should know
In order for a product to last a long time and maintain its original appearance, you need to select it correctly, not sparing money on purchasing new things. To do this, follow certain rules:
- the width of the leather product should be no more than 3-3.5 cm (belts of a larger width are worn exclusively with denim trousers);
- the color is chosen to match the watch strap, bag or shoes (this is a prerequisite for a stylish look);
- the buckle should not stand out (the best solution would be to choose a belt whose buckle is in perfect harmony with other metal accessories of the chosen bow).
An indicator of a special sense of style will be a product chosen to match the shirt.
In addition, wearing a belt that has peeling skin is not allowed. To do this, it is better to choose products stitched along the edges rather than glued ones. However, if this does happen, the belt can be easily repaired at home or taken to a professional workshop.
For a man to always look attractive and stylish, it is not enough just to purchase a high-quality belt and match it to the main elements of his wardrobe. You need to have certain knowledge of how to wear it correctly, combine it with other accessories and, if necessary, repair it.
