The History of Men’s Leather Belts

The History of Men’s Leather Belts

Did you know that initially, belts were a military item? Yes, belts were not only to keep the clothing intact but also to secure the weapons during the war. With the changing times, they have become an accessory. Let’s further understand who invented the belt and how the belt styles have evolved over time.  

The Origin of Belts

When we talk about leather belts, we know that today they are a fashion essential and offer secure clothing, both. However, learn how they have slowly evolved. From the Bronze Age to the Modern Era, know the origin of belts and how there has been a rise in demand for the most trendy belts. There are different types of belts like classic, stylish, and casual belts. Learn in-depth about how men’s belts have transitioned. 

Evolution – During the Bronze Age, men were the first ones to wear the leather belts. Previously, belts were used for military purposes, but gradually, they became a fashion essential for both men and women. However, compared to women, men wear belts more often. 

Bronze Age – Bronze Age was a historical period from 3300 to 1200 BC. Men in this era started considering belts as a part of clothing. However, the designs and colours of the belts were extremely limited during this time period. 

20th Century – In the 20th century, the designers started to discover how different types of belts would be made, which led to a rise in “statement belts,” and no one wanted to feel the FOMO – fear of missing out on not having a belt to look stylish. Well, the rest is history, to say the least. 

Modern Era – When we trace back to the history of belts, you would have known that belts were invented to keep the pants secure, but now they have become an accessory to make a style statement. With so many colours, textures, patterns, and materials, there are many options for you to choose from.
