Not Your Typical Hillbilly Belt Buckle

Handmade by an actual living human from the USA (not China).

(Well, the strap is from China – no biggie though.)

I recently had the pleasure of meeting John, the artist and creator of StrappedBelts.com. I am impressed with his art and quality of work, and I now possess an admiration of a good belt buckle. I have never really given much thought to my belts other than making sure they match outfits and keep my drawers up – not a huge fan of “sagging”.

I decided to go with the dark gray buckle with a couple light green lines. The glass front is securely fitted to the very sturdy buckle, which is nice because my name brand belts always break… no, not because I’m fat. The strap is made of a thick “top quality bonded leather” promising years of duration. All in all, this is a good purchase.

I like to add a splash of color to the jeans and white T-shirt look with my StrappedBelt Buckle. Obviously, there are more options depending on your fashion sense as the selection of buckles ranges from guys to girls and can easily accent anyone’s individual style.

It is said that the right accessories make the look and much more so than the tag inside the clothing. Most people don’t know about the thread count in fabric, but (like birds) they do notice shiny or colorful things. With this in mind, StrappedBelts offers many eye-catchers. Go ahead and check out the website because I will follow up this post with a giveaway. Win or not, this would be a nice addition to any wardrobe.

I am very pleased, and I do recommend this as an AMJ approved product. I’m also eyeing StrappedBelts array of cuff-links, and I’m sure I’ll let you know about those, as well.

Peace,
Trent
