Allen Edmonds Men’s Wide Basic Dress Belt

The idea behind the Wide Basic is simple, create an elegant staple that every man should have hanging in his closet. To achieve this, we started with the same fine French calfskin that’s used is some of the world’s most coveted bags. We tanned it in France, finished in Italy and in keeping with its name we added an unadorned rectangular buckle and two carefully placed keepers. Sophisticated and understated, the simple, classic design of the belt serves to highlight the rest of your attire. Feel the quality of the leather in your hand and then slip it on with a suit, chinos or jeans and a pair of Allen Edmonds welted shoes and you will discover that the Wide Basic is anything but basic.
