The black belt

A timeless colour

Black is the colour of elegance and mystery. It's a base colour that does not fall privy to fads or seasons, because, along with white, it's one of those timeless colours.

Black is both simple and sophisticated. It has the advantage of emphasising any other colour by taking a step back and fading into the background. It's without a doubt the easiest and most wearable colour that suits all skin tones.

How to wear a black belt?

The black belt goes well with all your trouser styles. It can be discreet when accompanying trousers of the same colour, but also allow you to create a contrast when worn with a more jarring colour. However, wearing a black belt with pastel colours is not recommended as the overall look has too much contrast.

The black belt in smooth leather is a safe bet to pair with a suit. However, it would be best to ideally wear shoes in the same colour. For a more casual look, the black nubuck belt is most popular with jeans or chinos.

You can also opt for a reversible belt composed of a black side made of classic smooth leather and a more colorful and casual side.
