You could spend hours crawling through niche corners of the internet. First things first, though: you need to know how to put on a belt buckle! Not all belts can have the buckle changed. It's worth bearing this in mind when buying a belt in the first place. If you're planning to accessorize, then make sure you get a belt in a style that will fit your choice of buckle.
It should have a detachable buckle. The strap the main part of the belt is sometimes attached permanently to the buckle and can't be removed without damaging the belt. If you're not sure if a buckle can be removed or not, ask a member of staff in-store or read reviews. Belts sometimes come with two other components. One of these is an end tip, which will be made of metal or leather and is designed to prevent the end of the belt from fraying.
The other part is the keeper loop, which is a small loop that you tuck the end of the belt into. This keeps the belt neatly in place. Once you've chosen a belt that you can accessorize in a style that suits you, it's time to pick a buckle that will really make a statement. There are many different types of buckle, and the belt you're wearing determines which type will be appropriate for the situation.
Here are a few of the different types:. One of the most recognizable types, formal belt buckles come in a frame-style. The strap passes right through the frame of the buckle and is then fastened by putting the prong of the belt through one of the holes on the strap.
These are used on dresses, and have a distinctive design. The buckle tends to be much flatter and smaller than the buckle on a formal belt, and is often round. These are designed to look very pretty on leather dress belts , often coming in shining gold or silver.
Plates are frequently decorative or ornate. As Mr. As with many things, some guys go left, some guys go right. I myself thread counterclockwise that is, the non-buckle end of the belt finishes by pointing left and I am right-handed.
But after conducting an extensive scientific study of famous men around the world, we discovered that, yes, counterclockwise is the most popular way among right-handed men. So, certainly, the concept of left-over-right is broken. However, it is important to note that all buckles, even those with non-standard closures, such as the basic stud-in-hole that supports the more showy metal symbols, may be displayed facing either way and even flipped upside down without losing function.
Are you a right or left-handed person? Most right-handed men and women wear their belts counter-clockwise, as in the left. Similarly, the standard for wearing a belt is from the left side for men. Do you have an old auxiliary belt on? Old auxiliary belts usually have to be worn in the same direction as it was the first time by the previous owner.
It is always designed to run in the original direction. As a result, draw an arrow on it. Which directon should a Woman wear her Belt? Which direction is the the Belt designed to go? I myself thread counterclockwise that is, the non-buckle end of the belt finishes by pointing left and I am right-handed. Then I did an exhaustive scientific survey of fashionable men and found that, indeed, counterclockwise is the most common direction among the right-handed.
So yes, the left-over-right principle is violated. And interestingly, right-handed women seem to thread their belts in the same way, breaking the principle that women's and men's clothes should be directionally distinguished as with buttons.
The one left-handed man in my survey went clockwise. But it is worth noting that all buckles, even the ones that have some non-standard form of closure, such as the simple stud-in-hole that backs the more ostentatious metal symbols, can be presented facing either way and even turned upside down and lose no function. So you should lose no sleep over this: Any way is fine. And your jacket is going to be closed most of the time anyway, right? Perhaps a more pressing question among all these crucial issues is what to do when you lose some weight and your belt becomes too long.
Do you just keep wrapping the loose end around, under further trouser loops, or do you fold it back on itself and hide it in the belt loop?
