In this video men's style, grooming, fitness and lifestyle expert, Aaron Marino of www.iamalpham.com www.aaronmarino.com and www.peteandpedro.com, talks about how to pick the best belt for your outfit. Knowing what belt to choose can be the difference between a looking great and looking like a guy who doesn't have a clue in regards to style.
Belts, when chosen properly, are an amazingly stylish and finishing touch to a great outfit. A cool and coordinated belt can add subtle detail to your look. You can showcase your individual taste, personality, preference, and flair; howver, making sure you chose an appropriate, stylish, and coordinating belt is essential. Aaron Marino of alpha m. presents how to pick the best belt for your outfit with these six belt wearing tips.
Belt Wearing Tips
1. Know the difference between casual and dress belts - dress belt is length of thumb to the 1st knuckle (1 inch and 1/2). If it's wider than that, it's casual. Make sure the shoes coordinate to the belt in terms of dress level.
2. Buckle - go simple, subtle, and understated unless you're a 'cowboy' or 'rock star'.
3. Stick to the three main colors - black, brown, and tan. Bright and bold work in certain situations. Fabric belts can be more playful because of the casual nature, however.
4. Match belt color to shoes - Alpha discusses how to match antiquing and distressing shades of shoes to the belt.
5. Buy one size larger than your waist size - Alpha gives examples. Belts have 5 holes, go for the center 3. If you are on the ends, go up or down accordingly.
6. Wear leather - there is no other option. Synthetic belts suck! When you think of leather, do you think of cow? 90% of leather belts in the stores are made from tanned cow-hide. However, 'leather' means any tanned and processed animal skin. Alpha covers other types of leather: crocodile, eel, ostrich, shark, and hippo. Alpha was recently introduced to a company, Alexander Dallas, who makes exotic leather belts. He was blown away by their cool belts. He loves the patterns and textures which add subtle detail and dimension that cow belts cannot. The price tag is around $160, but they are hand-crafted with unique leather.

I once tried to make a belt out of clocks.
Turned out to be a waist of time.
Nice joke
That because you forgot to back in time to reinfent time
what about human leather, you can never go wrong with human leather
ask germans, they pretend to be nice but their experts in human leather just check history
As long as it’s sustainably sourced
HIT ME UP I GOT FRESH SKIN HUMAN BELTS IM A CERTIFIED SELLER WE HUNT FOR ARE MATERIAL
As long as you wear matching human leather shoes.
Lol was thinking the same.
1. it should be 1.5 inch width and it should match with your shoes
2. buckle should be simple (not big monsters)
3.buy 1 size larger belts i.e if your waist is 30 then buy 32 waist size belt
4. always wear leather belts
Congratulations on 500k Aaron!
So awesome knowing luca watches alpha
Really really big fan of both

i still rock the walmart belts

How about a video on vegan belts and dress shoes because I know there are people out there that would like that.
Christopher Pack not really
Literally just broke my belt and needed to buy a new one. Alpha is psychic.
I'm a cowboy rockstar and I find this offensive.
+LarryLynx So you're a COCKSTAR?

This is really helpful!
You're a amazing man alpha, thank you
Hey alpha, I really like gucci belts what do you think of them?
Jasper
A pertinent sartorial question that often crops up is whether a man should wear the leather belt with a western buckle with a formal suit. Is it relevant with this style or simply tacky? What are your ideas on the subject?
Aaron gotta say man your channel is killer. Such a great place thanks for the content.
Alpha.. I'm thinking leather made from hippo is not a sustainable product, so I'm going respectively disagree with the "cool" factor on that recommendation.
I just got an anson belt and two buckles to change it up !! A casual and a dress buckle!!
But Alpha, what belt would you wear with black or white fashion sneakers? I'm inclined to buy black canvas but I would prefer army green. Would that work? Awesome videos!
Alpha, for years I’ve used shoelaces as a belt. One cause they’re cheap, two I have multiple of them from previous shoes and three I have sensitive skin to certain metals and break out in a rash if on my skin for too long. Any suggestions?
could you make a video on what clothing colors look best with eye, hair, and skin colors
Could you do a review on the products, I would like to see more of what's inside the wallet, thank you
Alpha you are a legend most helpful man around
Great, now I'm in love with the alexander dallas crocodile belt...
Man you're great 👍👍👍 a lot to learn from you. Thanks
tigers are more exotic alive than dead
I picked up 2 custom made leather belts from a little shop In the south of France, they're pricey at about £40 or $60 each but they will last a life time, worth the investment
Dude... I'm a real estate broker who has studied communication very closely. You are insanely captivating. You literally should have been a public speaker and probably would have been if we were still in the days before UA-cam. Love your content and keep it up!
I sprayed tiege hanley on my cow and it turned into a belt
Man your videos are just awesome
That matching belt to the wallet makes me go crazey!
Thanks for all the informative videos! Where can I obtain that sweet belt rack at the beginning of your video?
Yo Alpha! What do you think of snakeskin belts? I inherited an old one from my dad and it fits, but I'm not sure how to wear it. It's a silvery-gray color.
Hey Aaron, I wanted to know if designer belt could be used with formal outfit?
How do you feel about designer belts like Fendi, Michael Kors, Feragmao, Gucci, LV. If we purchase those when are the best times to wear them?
this video pissed off 76 vegans
I saw elephant skin,. Yeah I don't think I can endorse such a thing as Elephant skin. Have we learned nothing from Ivory tusks? Not even "The Protector"
What kind of belt would you suggest wearing with black chelsea boots that don't make your outfit look too dressy?
I love my white belt, motherlover! Adds contrast, helps to break your outfit up into Rule of Thirds and it POPS! Don't hate, my bohemian brother!
Great video man!
I love your videos. You have honestly help me elevate my sense of style and that has had an enormous impact on my confidence levels. You're pretty much my style guru lol Thank you so much for helping me better my life.
P.S bought a pair of double monk straps from ALDOS because of one of your videos and I have literally never loved any shoe as much as I love those. Great recommendation.
Alpha,I just bought a Ferragamo with buckle the classic Lego one in black.
but u said to go subtle and simple don't think it's to much loud or crazy! ?
What u think ??
Great channel! Subbed! Can you tell me the best belt for ripping it out of my belt loops one handed?
Great video man.. But i have one question, If i have lets say navy colored suede dessert boots, do I HAVE to use a navy colored suede belt or can I use a navy colored leather belt??
I saw a belt with a gold buckle at the beginning of your video. I've been going crazy trying to find one. Do you have any tips for brands/stores? (Preferably online because I live in The Netherlands)
Here's a simplified rule for belt width: Buy either 1.5" or 1.75". Not all pants can accommodate more that 1.75, and anything less than 1.5 doesn't look right.
Ur amazing mr. Alpha.
What do you think about the very expensive hermes belts?
SkyProductions I love them... but could never spend that much on a belt.
alpha m. Thanks for the answer! Yes they're way to expensive... please keep going with your videos they're awsome! Soon 500'000 Alphas ;)
Greetings from Switzerland
They are amazing... I don't own a hermes one but I have an Canali and ferragmo. Worth the money
There real ugly. Just expensive. At least with gucci it has nice color combinations or a beautiful gold medusa. The big ass H is like what the fuck
+SkyProductions I have one and it's one of my favorite belts and looks good with really anything, I would invest in one if I were you because they last and Hermes takes care of you if something happens to it.
what do you think about polyester web belts? are they ever okay to wear? and if so when?
Aaron, would it be ok to wear a black belt with oxblood shoes or do you recommend wearing only and oxblood color to match shoes?
You are very entertaining!
Can you do a video about what to wear to a prom?
man where did you get that belt hanger I need one I keeping my belts in a bag
I knew I could find him talking about this, he talks about everything. I need to buy a suit, and I'm lost.
What is your opinion on wearing belts that were made by the one who will be doing to wearing?
What do you think about braided leather belts?
I really love the look of old worn out leather belts. I have one that's 1 1/2 inches and it just looks so nice. Plus it's old so it's super soft and flexible.
Hey. Can a brown belt be worn with mid-tone gray jeans? For example, I'm interested in pairing Levi's 501 Original Fit Parrish Jeans with Levi's Stinson Belt. Or Levi's 502 Regular Tapered Mens Jeans - King Bee ADV.
What about Oxblood? If I have shoes in a deep red/burgundy, shouldn't I match the belt instead of going brown?
Hi aaron! what do you think about chesnut coloured casual belt?
i agree with the buckel, but i think that brands that hermes have some pretty stylish aswell
Haha! ❤
The style is subjective, yes.
But dude they don't start att 1000$
Man you can present!
I purchased a pair of Ralph Lauren Chukka boots. Ralph Laurens product said dark brown. I then followed with a purchase of a Ralph Lauren equestrian style belt also in dark brown. Guess what didn't match. I wish they would have a color code # to match them perfectly.
Alpha you rule !
Hoping you will respond but i recently puchased a Goyard brown leather belt and wanted to know what you think and how to wear it?
What were those shoes with the destressing he was holding up. Those looked sweet
Hey Alpha! would you wear a letherbelt with alot of texture with clean formel shoes of same leathercoler? i'm asking because i have a handcrafted letherbelt with alot of engraving, and i dont know if i can wear it with plain leathershoes :D please help!
So if it's more than inch amd half size that's a casual belt?
For grey shoes do you also wear grey belt?
Hey Alpha, are you supposed to wear a belt with a well fitted suit or not?
could you please make a video accordingly with Anson
Hey Can you make a video on Men watches..
How about im wearing chinos pants on a casual way and weari white sneakers. How i can match that belt xolor into my sneakers. It is ok if i'm wearing a leather tan belt?
Where can i get that Belt hanger at the start of the video?
Grip6 belt I've wondered about those.
Alpha U R FANTASTIC
How do you feel about belts such as Salvador Ferragamo, Fendi, and even Louis Vuitton. Pretty much anything with a signature print, and a low key buckle. I personally love they way they look, not the price$$.
+Ryan Braverman Due to the obscenely high prices of some of the branded belts, I go the route of buying a quality knockoff instead. Just the other day, my replica LV brown checkered Belt Came in and for most intensive purposes, this belt looked more than legit for me. I buy my replicas at Aliexpress.
YourMother well its your opinion and I respect that. But for me, with cloths the fakes can often be better made than the real deal at times provided you pay a little more and get a AAA quality grade replica and you will looking for differences with a magnifiying glass.
what about designer belts like Louis Vuitton and Ferragamo
That exotic belt place doesn’t have any on their site.
layne staley pulled off a big belt buckle.
gray boat shoes. can i go brown or black belt?
I only have 1 belt and it's brown and I wear it with everything cuz I don't give a fuck lol but Imma swag myself out wit a new belt now
Thanks for video Derek of Grey's Anatomy
Your the best Alpha! I like that tiger belt 😂
Ck belt with small engraved logo or big CK logo ?
I wear always with small.....i need a new obe my leather is fucked and the engraved you can wear on a suit 2
The width measurement shown for the belt was 1 3/16", not 1 1/2". All of my dress belts are 1 1/4" or 1 3/16".
I love the this alpha
what about luxury belts like Hermes & Gucci
Hahaha. I'm a college golfer, I pull off the white belt. And a black one with a huge Nike logo buckle. The things you can get away with in golf fashion 😂.
Wear your belt to the left or right?
can i wear a plain white shirt underneath one of these?
How do you feel about GUCCI belts?OR DESIGNERS?
Almost half a million !!!
Since everyone's talking about designer belts, i must say i dislike most, because the buckle is simply the letters of the company (gg ; lv ; h) and i think that's for people who get off on brand names. One that I really dig though is the versace 3d medusa head ones, i love the antique flair, that medusa just looks sick!
Wait what about about canvas belts?
simple rule of thumb 😍
What about hugo boss belts?
How about ratchet buckle belts?
What colour belt goes on black jeans I beg someone reply ASAP rocky
Any colour could do the work but to make it match, match the colour of your belt to the shoes like brown shoes you should wear brown belts. hope this Helps.
I have a pair of burgundy shoes. What color of belt should I use?
Joe Au Oxblood?
