A continuously adjustable belt does not work with the well-known hole principle, but rather the belt buckle hooks onto any point on the belt strap and enables a precisely fitting wearing experience.

The belt must fit smoothly in the hand and the back of the belt should also be made of leather. The belt may bend back slightly on its own once you have bent it. It must not show any cracks after being worn for a long time. If you rub shoe polish on your belt regularly, it will last longer.

Men wear the belt counterclockwise. So the buckle of the belt must be on the left side. For women it is the other way around.

The more exclusive the occasion, the narrower the men's belt should be. The width of 3 to 3.5 centimeters is considered a multifunctional standard. A classic belt in a subtle color should not be missing from any wardrobe, as it goes with almost every pair of trousers.

Men always wear belts on their hips. Threaded through the belt loops, they are used to hold heavy or poorly fitting pants in place.

Jeans and chinos are increasingly being worn without a belt, and this is supported by appropriate cuts.

Basically, most belts consist of a belt strap and a belt buckle. There is also often a belt loop that keeps the tip of the belt horizontal.
