Nick Hems - Brand Fashion Stylist Empire Belt Review
“The fact that Empire belts cater for fluctuating waistlines without someone having to go up a whole buckle size is a convenient thing, as it can make people feel more confident and comfortable with themselves alone, so that factor is a really positive one”
Can you really be ‘impressed’ by a belt?
“As I have discovered, yes you can! I had never owned a ratchet belt before, but because it was different and I like different, I decided to see for myself after seeing a lot of positive reviews for them online. I went for quite a minimalist look, more classic than street, as I wanted it to be as versatile as possible. After adjusting it to size which was very quick (something you do just once after purchasing), I put it on and it just felt like any other belt in my collection. The big difference was though I didn’t have to think about what hole I would use or whether it would be very fitted today or a bit loose, it just fitted perfectly. With belts it’s simple, you either go for comfort or style, so you’re either not bothered by the looks or you are. The best way to some up the Empire Belt I have is, it actually does both, it looks really nice if ‘on display’ and the one thing which is for certain is that it will always be a perfect fit. It’s the kind of thing you buy and wonder why you didn’t earlier, or wish you’d have thought of it. Footnote, if you are someone that goes to the toilet a lot after a few drinks and cherishes every second of a night out, you’ll save seconds on each urinal visit as it is faster to unload and load again.
It’s an investment you can’t regret.”

Soft and good quality, can be cut to size. Latch to open belt easy to use.
The ratchet belts really work well. Unlike belts with holes, the holes are too tight or too loose, with the ratchet system, they work really well.
This belt can easily be shortened to any required length, by unfastening the ‘fixed’ end cutting and re-fixed in the fixed end clamp.
Good seller, fast dispatch. Quality product and super value for money with the extra key ring to match belt included. Very pleased with the purchase.
Really nice looking belt and the ratchet system allows for finer adjustments ensuring a great fit. Nice and flat too so it doesn’t protrude under a shirt or t-shirt. Very pleased with my purchase. Thank you.
Fits great, didn’t need cutting to size. Waist 36″. Might be too short for some. Nice buckle, not too bulky and opens by clasp rather than a button. Just what I wanted.
Good sturdy belt with minimalist design. I had to cut a bit off to make it fit but it was a very easy process and instructions are provided! Also a very satisfying clicking sound when you tighten the belt.
Fits well, didn’t know how to undo it at first but worked it out and since then been using it every day. Easy to adjust and looks the part. Very sturdy and looks like it will last a while. Definitely worth buying.
After trying other types and different manufacturers, finally found a great belt at empire, materials are excellent quality and the buckle is purely simple and very sturdy. Looks good and is value for your money.
Good quality sturdy belt – have had cheaper versions which were always a bit too floppy with poor quality ‘belt leather’? This is a good quality version and well worth the money.
