How do you wear a grey belt?
You can wear a gray belt with virtually any outfit and any color. Their neutral shade is easy to match with your entire wardrobe, whether you're going for a casual or formal look. Here are a couple of ways we like to wear our grey leather belts:
"I'm Cooler than You" Look
If your sense of style is not off-the-shelf and you regularly dress to slay, a gray belt is the way to go. Our most popular belts in 2023 have been the Fractal on Distressed Grey Leather. The strap has a rough texture that will add an edge to your outfit.
The matte black and distressed metal Black-Ops Fractal buckle and the strap combine to make this piece functional as well as stylish.
Stone Fractal on Grey Leather
The distressed off-white metal Stone Fractal buckle and distressed leather strap add a cutting edge style to whatever you want to wear.
A Business Casual Look
The best thing about grey leather belts is that they look great with so many different kinds of outfits. You can wear them to work and out and about on the weekend. Grey pairs well a monochromatic outfit, like a textured grey shirt and dark pants, or with a pop of color for a fresh look.
Casual Looks for Grey Belts
The best way to wear a grey leather belt is with simple colors, like a white or solid color fabric shirt and faded black or blue jeans. This look is perfect for a laid-back summer day. It's casual but still says "I'm fun and care about how I look”.
Distressed leather gives you an effortless vintage feel without shopping at every thrift store. Pair it with the Stone Dial for a street ready look.
