There are certain trends or fashion styles that for some reason intimidate us and make us believe that we can’t “pull it off”.  Belt buckles can be one of those trends or styles for a lot of people but the truth is that anyone and everyone can wear belt buckles.  It’s not as if the right to wear a cool belt buckle is exclusive to a certain group or age.

These days belt buckles can be custom designed to suit your every want or need.  Here are just a few reasons why people wear or design belt buckles:

• Style
• Advertisement
• Support your favorite team
• Family Tradition
• Keep your pants up

Style: There is a certain look that comes along with wearing a belt buckle.  It does show that you care about that part of your appearance.  Many are very sleek and fashionable and can really add a sense of confidence or professionalism.  Other styles of belt buckles may show that you are wearing a specific brand name which can be important to some people.  There are so many different types that belt buckles can express your personality whether that is with a professional style or it’s a cowboy look.

Advertisement: Many companies will give their employees a custom belt buckle with the company logo on it in some way or another so that they will wear and advertise the company just by having the belt on.  It’s a cheap, easy way to get your company’s name out there just that extra little bit.  We see this all the time in the entertainment business.  Many hip hop stars wear personalized belt buckles or other pieces of jewelry that support their name or their brand.  Of course your company’s belt buckle won’t have to be as bright or extravagant as those worn by entertainers but instead they can have a very professional and formal look to them.

Support your favorite team: Many diehard sports fans want to own or collect everything that has to do with their favorite team.  This can range from anything to golf balls, bed sheets, rugs, or even belt buckles with the team’s logo or colors.  It’s a great way for sports fans to feel close to the team and involved in their success.

Family Tradition: In many families it’s a tradition to give the men in the family a belt buckle when they reach a certain age.  It can be a very meaningful gift from a father or a grandfather.  Many of the recipients will keep that belt buckle for the rest of their lives because of what it means to them and who gave it to them.  Inola Castings offers many different styles of men’s belt buckles and one of them is bound to call your attention and you can carry on or start the tradition of giving your sons belt buckles.

Belt buckles serve many purposes and it’s time you start taking advantage of them for yourself.  Show off your style, support your team, get your company’s name out there, or create meaningful memories for your family today with a custom belt buckle.
