Advice on belts

[andyfg]

A couple of the chaps, responding to a recent pic, suggested a plain buckle belt, 2 inch wide. Any advice on where to get a reasonable one?

Thanks

hit the Kilt Store link at the top of the page. They have some good ones.

Please don't make the mistake of wearing a cowboy or western-style belt buckle.

Amerikilt sells a nice 2-inch wide, black or brown, kilt belt for only $35.

I just bought a 2 inch belt from Dangerous Threads off ebay. I got it for $25. It's a great belt, but be careful they measure the belts weird. I had to send the first one back and order a larger one.

Why not wear a cowboy buckle? I'll bet there were no chrome belt buckles before the '45. So why is that ok but a cowboy buckle which is equally farbe?

I'm with Bill, best deal on belts is through AmeriKilts, they have 2 1/4" wide plain buckle, black and brown. Top value for the price and quality leather.

I agree. I don't see anything wrong with a western style buckle, so long as it's not overly large. Keep it about the size of a standard kilt belt buckle and you should be okay.

I would think adding a few "non-traditional" buckles to the collection would add to the fun, and to help increase outfit options.

Been out of town (so delay in replying). Thanks for the advice.

I'm with Bill and Ron on this. I have the black one and love it. I should go ahead a purchase the brown as well.
