A Belt That Will Hold Up

We now live in a world where our midsections have become prime realty for free advertisements. So forget the monograms and logos and go back to the basics. Good quality leather is all you need to keep your pants on. The belt is an accessory that tends to get neglected, but it can really pull your whole look together whether you are going casual or dressing up.

Wiley Brothers belts are a great investment. The company was created in 1999 by Marcus Wiley and since then, he has made it his mission to create handcrafted, high quality belts. The company started off with two belt options and has expanded to over 15 styles with endless colors, buckle styles and leather details.

The company uses the finest vegetable-tanned English bridle leather available and their brass buckles are cast locally. This is a belt that will continue to improve with age. What makes the Wiley Brothers a fascinating story is how strongly they emphasize quality over quantity. The belts are also made in the United States.

So what are some of the styles available?

While the traditional style is clean and sleek, The Wiley Brothers don’t shy away from their wild side with snake belt buckles made from white bronze and a baby sea turtle buckle made from a shiny brass. The Millington is an interesting take on the classic belt buckle and the classic Hoof Pick buckle is unlike anything you’ve seen before.

All belts are customizable and can be monogramed as well.

Check out the Wiley Brothers website and find yourself a belt that with hold up it’s quality and your pants.

Wedding Season: Wrangler has the solution to that guy who hates dressing up
Elevated Cowboy Comfortable
Wrangler Cowboy Wedding close up

I grew up in Missouri, where there were different kinds of weddings, from the giant ballroom with tuxedos to the barn shindig with the potluck and jeans. There was also the church wedding, which included everything from tuxedos and suits to bolo ties. But there was always that guy who hated dressing up, always the guy who refused to wear the suits and ended up in jeans despite the dress code. While you may always have that guy you struggle to get into something a little more elevated for the occasion, Wrangler may have the happy medium you are looking for in 2025's wedding season. The Wrangler Wedding Suit is going to make any Rip look more appropriate off the ranch.
Cowboy formal

One of our favorite things about guys like Rip Wheeler in Yellowstone is that they are reliable. Hard working, loyal, and dedicated. They can always be found pushing the ranch forward. Now, while that isn't the worst quality to have in a friend or family, many of them have a hard time shifting to the more sociable moments and dressing up for the occasions that call for a little more sartorial excellence. That is where this raw, undyed denim comes into play. Cut from classic Blue Bell denim jeans and denim jacket, they will feel almost identical to what the man wears daily on the ranch. The only difference is the ivory color puts them firmly in the range of a cowbody wedding suit. Adorned with a Wrangler cowboy roping in a stallion, this look is everything a cowboy wants when giving his daughter away or saying his vows, either in the venue, the church, or the barn.
