Q. Should the colors of my shoes, waist belt, and watch strap match?
A. My personal opinion is that it's better not to match them too much.




It's a bit uncool that both men and women wear leather in different colors.
If your shoes are black, your waist belt should also be black.
If the shoes are brown, the belt should also be brown.
I think it would be better to match up to that point,
I can't help but feel that matching the color of my watch strap and bag is a bit "overdone."

In fact, whether it's formal or casual,
Shoes and waist belts look better together,
On the other hand, if the colors in these two places are too different, it will be unbalanced.
Speaking of details, I think it would be better to match not only the color but also the material.
Outer side, suede, enamel...
I think it would be fashionable if you could arrange this much.
I don't wear enamel shoes unless it's really necessary, so I don't own them.
I don't have a suede belt because I don't want the color to bleed.
So I try to match only the color.

So what should you do with your watch strap and bag?
I think it's a good idea to choose a color that can be matched with black or brown shoes.
Two colors are recommended: navy and gray.
Both black and brown go well together, making them easy to match with clothing.
Very convenient to have.
Lately, I've been thinking that greige and taupe might be surprisingly good.

However, for men, there are two choices for leather shoes: black or dark brown.
If it's casual, it's okay, but if it's formal, I don't wear colored shoes.
That said, I also have bags in two colors.
It would be nice if the watch strap could be replaced, but it would be expensive to carry two straps in two different colors.
I completely understand the feeling that ``having them all together gives a sense of unity,'' but
Don't you get tired of always black and always brown?
So I would like you to at least "play with" the watch strap.

Over the past 10 years, watch straps have come in an increasing variety of leather materials and colors.
The fun of changing belts has become much more enjoyable.
If the watch is easy to replace, we would like you to try it yourself.
If you also purchase a strap when purchasing a watch, we will give you a replacement tool as a gift.

Personally, I don't object to "unifying" the color of the leather, but
If you line them up too much, you'll end up looking a little nervous.
You don't have to choose something colorful,
The number of belts whose leather itself has beautiful colors is increasing, so
I think it would be a good idea to install something like that.

As a result, we recommend a watch strap that has some play.

However, it is actually more difficult to match the metal parts of each item than the leather.
In terms of shoes, monk straps and waist belts,
The handle of the bag or the watch itself.
Roughly available in two colors: "silver" and "gold".
In most cases, it is silver.
However, these days, classic shoes often have gold hardware.
Even if I wanted to go with it, there weren't many items with gold hardware.
The belt shown in the photo is an almost miraculous combination.

The other day, I received a recommendation for this belt from Mr. Yoshizumi, the manager of the Fukuoka branch of Five One, who I have become friends with.
This is a belt with a gold-colored buckle that is not readily available as ready-made products.
What's even better is that the gold is not that "obtrusive".
Gold is a gorgeous color, so if the area is large, it will stand out.
So I've been looking for something smaller in size for three years now.
I really can't find it.
So, I went to greet the new year and found a belt that looked great.
This is something you should buy without hesitation.
With this, I was freed from the belt problem that had been bothering me for many years (lol)

When it comes to watches, I personally recommend watches made of combination materials.
The metal fittings of shoes and belts can be matched with either color,
As you get older, your skin gets darker, so it's better to wear something a little more glamorous.
For this reason, Santos also recommends the combination model.
In fact, the combination model has received better reviews from those who have tried it on.

The Grand Seiko that I customized is so easy to use that I wear it every day.
I think I'm old enough to wear a combination watch.
However, when it comes time to buy a combination watch, you may be worried about whether it will suit you or not.
Considering how easy it is to use and match, there is no reason not to buy it.

Trying things out and choosing things you wouldn't normally choose can be fun and make new discoveries!
