For some time I had pondered the idea of making non-leather belts that could go places a regular leather belt maybe could not. After quite a bit of experimentation I came up with this new design of belt made in performance polyester/nylon based fabric. My thinking is that although leather is a wonderfully versatile material, there are nevertheless occasions when its properties are maybe not ideal or perhaps moments when its look is not quite right. This new version of our Coppola design introduces a fresh honeycomb textured fabric that both lightweight, flexible, splash proof and even when soaked in water can be dried out to be good as new again. We love the idea of wearing this belt with shorts, or for occasions when activewear is the way to go, in this black colour in particular there is something really hi tech about the belt. But slip it into a pair of jeans or khakis at the end of the day and you have a really great distinctive casual belt. To take this concept to fulfilment we have used a special rubber coated material around the buckle holes and for the loops in a dark contrast grey and used a specialized rubber coating on the buckle to really finish off the performance feel of the belt. I really hope you like it.
