If you like the idea of moving away from flatter leather to something a little more tactile then 'hair on' cowhide, or 'Pony Hair' as we like to call it is a really great alternative. If you are a long time aficionado of Elliot Rhodes you will know we have been running belts in this texture for many years and will know why they are so great, but if you are new to this texture then it really is one you should try. The warm texture and three dimensional feel makes it very different from a normal leather belt but it retains a chic, sophisticated look thanks to its tonal leather edge piping. Strangely until now we have never made a dark olive version like this so now we are making amends. It really is such a rich, warm colour. Our buckle choice is elegant and stylish with its slim edges and low profile, intentionally keeping a firm focus on the belt colour with the satin gunmetal finish picking up the darker highlights of the Olive tone. Ultimately it makes the belt suitable for both casual and dressier occasions, just as much at home on jeans as it would as a centrepiece to contemporary eveningwear. Give this belt a try on earthy tones or on rich berry tones, black or grey...I guarantee this is will be a versatile belt you will turn to time and again - a great alternative to brown!
