Visiting a Polo outlet, I picked up this odd equestian related belt. So HTF is it supposed to be buckled? It seems unlikely I'd ever wear it but I am curious.
It was originally marked $595 and I paid $8.50 so it was at least worth it for the sheer weight of the hardware.

I seem to recall some one posted a picture of it being worn a while ago but my google-fu skills are lacking tonight.

I do believe that sort of harness is primarily used by women of the sapphic nature. That being said, what a steal for $8.50. Here's to wishing you get much use out of it.

I love RL pricing.
I wonder how many of these they actually sold?

Thanks.
I suspected it was a women's belt but the tag does say "men's d-ring chain belt".

It was accessory day at the Polo outlet. I got 5 other normal English and Italian made mainline Polo belts for $8.50. Also several Purple and Black Label pocket squares for $4. This was at the Polo outlet in Primm NV.

I recently picked up a PRL English made foulard print silk reversing to wool cavalry twill $295 scarf for $1.75 at a PRL Factory Store. Also a $395 woman's equestrian print Itai rolled and sewn 36" carre for $5. A sales associate showed me his dark jade green RLPL crocagator wallet that arrived at the store with a $5 price tag, $2.50 with his employee discount. The exterior and interior were crocogator. It originally retailed for $1200.
