Extra! Extra! Read all about it! If you haven't already heard about a new staple on the fashion scene, please read on! An item like this only comes around once a decade or so.
Designed in El Dorado, California, the SlideBelt is fully adjustable and features removable rachet buckles which are durable and easy to use. There are no holes whatsoever.
Ten years ago, Brig Taylor was teaching abroad in Moldova. One of his students, Oleg, gave Brig a ratchet belt he had found while serving in the Russian military. Rather than the traditional fastening method of holes and a prong, this belt featured a tab on the buckle that racheted into teeth-like ridges. The ridges were sewn to the back of the leather strap.
Brig and his wife, Michelle, put their heads together to come up with an improved and refined design. After receiving a patent on their concept, they placed their first order for 400 belts. Six years later, the Taylor's placed another order for 600 belts. With growth came a move from the Taylor's garage into new office space and voila! . As they say, the rest is history. With sales of nearly 40,000 belts in 2013, SlideBelts is well on its way to becoming a household word.
The Men's department at FL Crooks & Co is pleased and delighted to be offering the SlideBelt in leather, as well as in fabric designs, in several colors including black, brown, cognac, grey, and camo. Rob points out that this makes a perfect gift because you don't need to know the size of the recipient. Moreover, Rob states that the SlideBelt is "for the guy who puts a belt on and is always between holes. This eliminates that. Everyone who works here has one!"
No ordinary fashion accessory, this $65 SlideBelt is a new paradigm of style. Functional and affordable, maybe it's time for you to try one or buy one for the special man in your life. Oh, and pass the potatoes please!
Happy Thanksgivingtide!
