So glad you like it!

Do you needlepoint? I have 5 - 6 needlepoint belts, all with my monogram :smiley: that look great with whatever outfit I am wearing.

I only wear stretchy belts for riding. So much more comfortable. Mine have a smooth stretchy body (canvas look)and leather at the end parts with a streamlined silver tone buckle. I haggle for them and can get them for about 10 euros a piece. Easy to customize, just cut them to the length you need.

Arcade Belts changed my life. I wear them all the time. They’re stretchy with a flat buckle that doesn’t bulge out under tops and never cuts into your waist. I recommend them to everyone, and everyone who tries one never goes back. I do not work for the company. I will never ever wear another kind of belt.

Check the belt width and make sure it will fit through your belt loops. My only beef with these is that technically only the black “Midnighter Slim” is a “women’s” belt (1.25" elastic width vs. 1.5"), but depending on the pants you might be able to wear the other styles, which come in all sorts of cool designs.

Obviously if you want something with a bling buckle these won’t do, but if you hate bulgy uncomfortable buckles like I do you’ll love them. You’re welcome.

I love Equibelts, which are woven, but classy enough for showing. And they can be any size since the clasp goes through the weaving rather than in a specific hole.

Do you mind saying which one you ordered? I’m trying to decide between the suede stitched or the leather stitched…

Okay this may seem silly, but have you tried clipping a cell phone case to the Unbelt yet? My local tack shop just got them in and I’m quite intrigued. I wear belts everyday to ride in the summer since I like to have my phone on me, my horse has some moves and I hack the babies. I can’t stand if the case is bouncing around though.

I ordered the smooth leather -it’s really nice for the price. I have another brand that is suede and it hasn’t held up, though I’m not exactly dainty at the barn. I have hands on relationships with my horses lol!
