Smathers & Branson's iconic needlepoint belt is a unique accessory that combines elegance with casual fun, making you stand out in the crowd. This hand - stitched belt, 1.25 inches wide, features full - grain, vegetable - tanned Italian leather and a solid brass buckle. To find the right S&B belt size, add 2 inches to a man's pant waist size. For odd pant sizes like 33 or 35, add 3 inches. If the recipient wears multiple sizes, use the largest one. This sizing formula works best for chino - style pants. Manufacturer numbers are as follows: 34: B - 501 - 34, 36: B - 501 - 36, 38: B - 501 - 38, 40: B - 501 - 40, 42: B - 501 - 42.
Using this belt is as easy as it gets. Just thread it through your belt loops and fasten the buckle. When it comes to choosing the right size, follow the sizing guide in the product description. To keep your belt in top shape, avoid getting it wet as much as possible. If it does get damp, dry it gently with a soft cloth. For regular cleaning, use a mild leather cleaner and a soft brush to wipe away dirt. Don't expose the belt to direct sunlight for long periods, as it might fade the needlepoint. With proper care, your Smathers & Branson needlepoint belt will last you a long time.
