Western Belts

Western belts for women, from horseshoe buckles and metal tips to studs and engraved gold and silver buckles, all made by hand in small batches. Not sure of your size? There's a quick guide below the belts.

What makes a belt western?

It's the hardware: a horseshoe-shaped buckle, a metal tip on the end of the strap, an engraved buckle or a row of studs. Adrie pairs a horseshoe buckle with a matching tip, and Alara has a metal tip too, with a vintage silver buckle.

Bea's engraved buckle mixes silver and gold, and Gem's is set with a turquoise-tone stone. Prefer silver only? Wen has a detailed antique silver buckle and Jolan a twisted one, both 1.57 inches (4 cm) wide in 5 colors.

Which western belts have a gold buckle?

5 of them, from slim to wide: Ariana is 0.6 inches (1.5 cm), Adrie 1 inch (2.5 cm), Andrea 1.5 inches (3.8 cm), Jasmyn 1.6 inches (4 cm) and Prya 3.2 inches (8 cm). All but Jasmyn have a horseshoe buckle; Jasmyn has an antique gold buckle with a row of round studs.

Of these, Andrea comes in the most colors (11) and adds a matching gold keeper. Want the whole belt in gold? Adrie and Bea also come with a gold strap.

How do I wear a western belt with jeans or a dress?

With jeans, start with Jasmyn, which was designed for denim. For more widths, see our women's leather belts for jeans.

Over a dress, go slim and wear it at your waist. Bea and Alara are 1 inch (2.5 cm) and Ariana 0.6 inches, and all 3 pair with dresses as well as denim; more slim styles are in our skinny belts. For a bolder waist, Prya is one of our wide belts for women.
