I've gotten dozens, maybe hundreds of requests throughout the years for pictures of my belt collection. Well, here you go. The only one missing is the thin O-ring belt from MBBrownandCo that I am wearing.

There are a few more around, I think, that are not there. Also, a bunch of dress belts are not pictured.

modesty, dude.

FWIW I have a 1" wide black suede women's Uniqlo belt that is splitting, and a few other belts I don't wear, none worth noting. I'll just wear loose pants and pull them up all day if I have to, this is pretty common with APC jeans.

Been e-hanging out with jet and sq a little too long. I'm going to start a thread about no-peasant steez, ballin' belts.

I dunno how you can do with just one belt. There are times when you need a grey washed brown, other times when you need a rich brown with red tones, other times when you need a brown with black tones, and so on... Same goes for black. Julius uses very rich, dark blacks. Robert Geller and MA+ use washed blacks, and so on.

Got a few cheap H&M belts. The only good belt I've owned was a stars & perfect 10s natural belt that I lost

The bottom two on mine are HTC, Hollywood Trading Company.

plain on is the basic belt, the darker one is their brazilian military belt. They take phone orders.

The basic belt was about 170-ish and the brazilian belt was about 2 something.

Was once in a darts bar in Ebisu, on a Friday night at like4am, with djrajio (of sufu fame, now banned - why?) and we're shooting the **** -and this is Japan, so there's a few cute bartenders in there... I see a studded belt on this girl and I tell rajio to ask her if it's HTC (anata no beluto wa eichi-chee-shee desuka?) and she's like ' OMG! HOW DID YOU KNOW??!' and I wasn't sure if I was gonna respond to that with 'I spend too much time on the internet' or 'I randomly guessed but still know too much about belts' Instant in though, and the girl divulged that she was actually the owner of this member's only bar and that she was from the countryside, etc, etc. Belts make the world go round. I still don't really want a new one, my women's Uniqlo is fine, Fok.

Surprised more people don't jock htc and you figure I'd have one with my boy working at fred segal for years lol. HTC officer boots are dope too always wanted a pair, some dude on here is selling them for ridiculously cheap someone should kop, made in italy too.

Anyway I have an off-white 45rpm, a dope jil grey belt for slimmer jean fits, and a jil marble belt for non jean fits. Don't wear them often though.

If jet talks about **** he owns and doesn't wear, I get reminded of that kinda stuff myself - I just remembered I got one of the Raf S/S10 snake belts upstairs, still in the box - too big and wide-buckled to fit through jean belt loops, worthless.
