So what makes for the perfect summer belt? I think the answer is all about the weight and feel of the belt which is where handwoven styles always score. We also always love suede in summer as it has a lovely tactile feel and lightness to it. So this year we decided to combine the best of both worlds to create a suede handwoven belt! The belt with its suede upper and contrast colour waxed cotton backing is extremely soft and supple, ideal for lightweight summer chinos, shorts, denim and linens and in this rich dark chocolate colour, particularly easy to wear with white, blue, khaki, all sorts of earthy tones and of course denim. The contrast khaki green stitching and lining that pokes through along the belt adds a stylish and distinctive finishing touch, whilst the distressed brass buckle finish remains subtle and low key to give the belt a rich earthy feel. The perfect summer belt for land, sea and beach - perfect with suede loafers, driving shoes or your Converse...and when winter comes this belt will also be a wonderful textured companion worn with knitwear and heavier fabrics.
