In this article I will be telling you guys some odd reasons why some leather belts wear out much faster than most of the other leather belts. Certainly, there is something to be said about buying higher quality leather belts, as quality generally correlates with longevity. However, as much as I believe in this rule with other pieces of clothing, it just doesn’t ring all hat true for belts, personally speaking. In this article also, I will be talking about some techniques to help keep your belts in tip top condition for as long as possible.

Below Are 4 Ways Care For Your Classy Belts

Washing Your Belts

 Washing Your Belts

Just like most things you own, the key to taking care of them is to keep them clean. This is the same with karate belt, if you want to take care of it, you have to keep it clean. You can do this by washing your belts. There are two main methods, you can use machine washing and hand washing:

Hand Washing: For this method, all you will need is a sink, detergent and vinegar, so this option may be ideal if you don’t have a washing machine. Fill the sink up with a cold water, and add a little bit of delicate detergent. Let the belt soak in the water for a while then use your hands and turn the belt over, twist it and occasionally wring it out.

 

Machine Washing: For this method, you need to set up your washing machine in a specific way. Have it on the lightest spin cycle, and set the water temperature to the coldest possible setting. Try to wash your belt separately, as washing it with other items can wear away the belt’s fibers. Machine washing is the easiest option, but is not as effective as hand washing

Drying Your Belts

Drying Your Belts

Although washing your belt is the main part, you need to pay attention to how you dry it. Tumble drying your belt may seam attractive simply because it is easy, but just like karategi, manufacturers advice against it. This is because tumble drying will increase shrinkage, and will also damage the fibers in your belt. The most ideal option for drying, is to hang your belt in a warm and dry place, but not in the direct sunlight.

7 1

In conclusion, not that you can wash your belts as much as you deem necessary. Washing your belts often is not exactly compulsory, but it doesn’t hurt to wash it regularly. When washing your belt avoid hot water ‘cause it increases shrinkage. Use detergents but try as much not to use those with bleach. Bleach will slowly deteriorate the fibers in your belt, meaning it will eventually wear away to nothing.
