Product Description

The Fausto Colato 5734 is a belt for customers who aren’t looking for a smooth surface in a leather belt, but rather a visible texture. The center of the crocodile’s back is used, where the pattern is most striking. The natural horn plates give the belt its textured surface and unique character.

In Camouflage Brown, the material appears somewhat more subdued than one might initially expect from crocodile leather. From a distance, the belt looks almost solid and understated. Only up close can you see more depth in the interplay of colors and the texture. That’s exactly what makes it interesting.

At 4 centimeters wide, this belt pairs well with denim and chinos. It has a sportier look than a narrower, very formal belt, yet it clearly remains on the high-end side.

Material and Finish

Crocodile Back

The center of the crocodile’s back features the most distinct natural horn plates. This gives the surface a more robust and textured appearance than smoother sections of leather. If you’re looking for exactly this texture, you’ve come to the right place.

Camouflage Finish

The camouflage pattern in shades of brown is kept subdued here. It doesn’t lean toward anything flashy. This gives the belt more depth while still making it easy to pair with other items.

Origin

The origin is certified with the required documentation, such as CITES. If you have any questions about this, we’d be happy to look into it further at UNIT Hamburg.

Color and Pairing

Color

The brown is warm and subdued. The camouflage finish makes the shade appear slightly more vibrant than a completely smooth, solid-color belt.

Styling

We’d pair this belt with dark denim, sand-colored or olive chinos, and even slightly chunkier wool pants. When it comes to shoes, brown leather or suede styles are a particularly natural choice. A belt like this really doesn’t need anything else.

At UNIT Hamburg in the HanseViertel, we’ll take our time with you to determine the best length and width for your pants. If the belt needs to be shortened, we’ll arrange that through our workshop in Milan. And if it needs to be refurbished years down the line, we’ll take care of that, too.
