Casual Style: Denim, Crazy Horse and Visible Wear
Casual leather can be thicker, rougher and more textured — and it should be allowed to show its age.
Casual is where leather's character earns its keep: scuffs, pull-up and heavy stitching all read correctly here.
Go wider and thicker
35–40 mm belts in 4 mm leather balance denim and heavier fabrics.
Texture is welcome
Crazy horse, pebble grain and nubuck all suit casual wardrobes.
Loosen the matching rule
Tonal contrast between bag and belt is acceptable and often better.
