Learn How To Choose Your First Men's Golf Belt
When you play golf, you need to wear a belt that keeps your pants tight to your waist so that your underwear is not visible when you bend over to take a stroke. If you have never bought a golf belt for yourself before, there are certain things to take into consideration to be sure that you are going to be happy with the belt that you purchase. The following guide walks you through how to find the perfect belt to wear when golfing.
Material
If you plan to wear the belt to make a fashion statement, you need to choose a belt that is made of sturdy, stylish material. There are many great belts that are made of leather. Leather is designed to be durable and long-lasting making it ideal for someone who plans to wear the belt on a daily basis or when they enjoy outdoor activities, such as golf.
Color
Next, you need to choose the color you want for your belt. Most leather belts come in a rich brown color or a black color. There are some leather belts that are designed to be two sided. One side will be brown in color and one side will be black. Investing in one of these belts allows you to get twice the use out of your belt. A brown or a black belt will often pair well with just about any golf attire you wear when hitting the green.
Buckle
Belts are available with many different types of buckles. You need to choose a buckle that is tasteful and stylish. Gold or silver colored buckles are the most common options for belt buckles. You want to be sure that the buckle of the belt is not too large as it can create an overwhelming look.
Size
Finally, you need to choose a belt that is the right size for you. Try on the belt and make sure that you can secure it in the center hole of the belt. By choosing a belt that secures at the center hole, you will have room to lose or gain weight and still be able to use the belt.
A high-quality leather belt will last for quite a while, if you take care of it properly. Be sure to hang the belt when you are not using it to ensure that it does not get any bends in it. Pay attention to the edges of the belt and trim any strings that fray after you have worn the belt for a few weeks. Taking care of your men's golf belt is not hard and really extends the life of your belt.
