5″ wide Montreal based craftsmen Fullum and Holt know a thing or two about creating the perfect belt. Although based on a classic this slightly casual and relaxed looking belt brings traditional charm up to date for the modern man.

The fall 2012 accessory collection continues this tradition with understated (never trendy) gloves, socks, footwear, bags, belts, hats and wallets. In Italian vegetable tanned leather and Vachetta leather, this stunner can be opened flat with two-way zip closure and collapsible handles. I spotted one of the handsomest laptop computer bags from Montreal-based company, FULLUM & HOLT. It features a padded internal laptop sleeve and roomy pockets and is a perfect choice for the business traveler with adjustable shoulder strap and accommodation for a 20” laptop. This family owned company offers an enormous range of different fabrics, collar and cuff styles and embroidered monograms in 20 colors and 8 different fonts. Let’s face it, most of you aren’t going to run out and buy a whole new wardrobe but you just might want to update your look with a new pair of gloves, carryall, tie, shirt, briefcase or hat, etc. It features four exterior pockets and adjustable bridle leather shoulder strap, top handle and trim. In addition there’s a gorgeous selection for the ladies as well offered in crisp cottons and silk that struck my eye and with the range of almost 800 (that’s not a typo) different fabrics Emanuel Berg can deliver true array of shirts and blouses.

The buckle of the belt is well finished with the Ariat logo and a single keeper this belt is versatile enough to be worn with the more casual jeans through to smart trouser wear. There is something about a quality belt and knowing it’s an Ariat belt means that this gift will last a lifetime.
