Been facing a problem of finding color between belt and shoes,. Anson is what I have been looking for, I will buy a bunch of belt when I am back in town. Since last 5 years, I only buy stuffs that support American small business rather than corporate or luxury brands. Thanks John for sharing.
Freddie V, now that’s what I would call taking the accessory game to another level! 👍🏻 ✨ Never thought of that myself. But then, silver is the only one color I wear... 😄 Nevertheless, I share your love for such subtle details!
I’m a big fan of this style belt. They fit better and last much longer. I currently use Mission, but will give Anson a shot for some additional style variety. Good video on matching.
Thanks for belt tips, particularly the information about Anson belts. I will check them out and hopefully make a purchase. I have many belts and nothing ever seems right similar to the problems that you mentioned in your clip. I like the idea of adjustable belts. Thanks again!
Awesome topic thanks John. Always been aware of shoes and belts. Guys are upping their style, thanks to your great yt site. Greetings from lockdown England.
Hi John. I have several Anson belts in different leathers and fabrics and like them all for the reason you mentioned. You can get an exact fit. I even have a couple of their nifty belt hangers. They are a game changer. I now have more drawer space in my dresser. Previously I had to coil them up as tightly as possible and put a rubber band around them and stack them side by side to see what color they were. I also keep the buckles in the drawstring pouch that the belt comes in. Peace. :)
I have a collection of about 8 Anson belts and love them . I have found that Mission buckles fit the Anson belts perfectly. I live in Texas and bought a few of the western buckles from Mission to change up the look for when wearing jeans.
I also have several of those kinds of belts. Yep they're great for that perfect fit, but I do find that the buckle tends to be bulky, and sits uneven, not flat against the stomach, which, unless I'm being OCD, sometimes annoys me. Mine aren't Anson brand, but the buckle looks exactly the same design/mechanism from what I can see on your video. Another great video thanks John.
Bruce Smith same here. I have mission belts. The buckle is bulkier. I only wear my mission belts with dress clothes so it’s not so bad. But other than dress, the buckle is a little much.
Hi John, very valid commentary that is often overlooked. Could be a banging pair of Quality shoes and a nice belt but if they don’t match, most of that goodness is lost as the two are almost competing against another. I’m going to check out Anson as well, the micro-adjustment would be a game-changer!! And keep up the good work
I could have figured out that belt you were showing but the one I got for Christmas we never did figure out how it worked. It came with no instructions. I ended up throwing it away. Too bad, it was nice.
Just saw this video (little late...lol) I really like your belts John...I have never seen that style before, so inventive! Can you purchase only 1 or does it only come in sets like you mentioned in videos? Have a great week!
I love my anson belts. I have three leather straps and plan to grab a few canvas straps for the spring and summer. I definitely struggle a little when trying to match belts with shoes when going casual. For example, I have a pair of blue suede casual shoes and never know what belt to wear. I have a really casual blue belt but it’s too casual to wear with a button down shirt.
What about belt thickness for casual and suits and also matching your buckle to your metals? If you are wearing gold jewelry you cant wear a silver buckle.
Hey John! Great video, I like the actual shots including the different coloured browns working not 100% with each other. I think it might be interesting to do a video on how you spend your day, or maybe a small look into some of your other hobbies (e.g. watch collection video, brewing coffee, something of that sort)? Hope you stay safe and well! -Han
Its probably already on your "things to do" video calendar... Fathers day is June 21, A "What to get Dad" video is a suggestion, and as far as what I'm going to ask for...the Anson belt collection is going to be my response. Keep moving forward sir.
Nice video, i loved it! Question: I have beige shoes, can I combine it with a belt that has a different shade of beige? I couldn't find a belt with the same shade of beige :(
I have a question for you: I’ve recently purchased emerald green alligator Gucci horse bit loafers and I have no idea what belt I should use. What are your thoughts?
I clicked on the link to check out the belts - but Norton internet security, popped open & they recommend not using ... warned about that site not being safe
This is a really stale commericial for anson belts. I get you need the payday but everyone over 20 knows to match belt and shoes because every yt fashion influencer has done this vid. Just cuase your over 40 doesn't mean you can't be creative.
please promote an animal flesh (leather) alternative. this is 2020, please stop wearing animals for vanity. It is NOT necessarily. At least you mentioned vegan options, thanks 👍 Sponsor a vegan company that doesn't abuse animals.
