It is just a belt. No one will think you're posing as a cowboy or forest ranger.

 

Tom,
I ordered one from Schnees last January and finally received it about a month ago. I sent it back because it was much too bulky to wear on a daily basis. I was surprised at how stiff and robust it seemed. I think I have that out of my system now!
Just my $.02.
Tom

 

Not custom, but I have two from Cabelas, one an inch and a quarter, the other an inch and three quarters, no metal tips etc.. Just checked their site, they have an inch and a half also

 

Very popular style around South Texas but it's probably hard to find a western store where you are. That's where you'll find the most selection. Suggest online sales, Try Cavenders, Shepplers, or others.

I think he meant Texas Ranger, not forest ranger..

 

I have a few with vintage silver buckle sets that I wear only with jeans. A search on Ebay will show you at least twenty, so you can gain a sense of size, appearance, etc. You might try one or two on in a ranch store. The buckle sets can be a startling amount of shiny metal at your waist when you see them for the first time. As a practical matter, belts made from a single piece of leather that tapers at both ends to hold the buckle, keepers and tip are less cumbersome than those with separate, narrower hardware strips attached to the top of a thicker belt.

Here is site I was looking at. I like the one on the top of the stack in the picture of ranger belts, or similar. They have several nice ones. I can also check out the websites mentioned. Thanks for the input....

 

I've worn ranger design belts with my chinos and on the few occasions I wear blue jeans. As fishertw reported above, the thickness/weight of the ranger belt designs make them a poor choice for wear with most dress trousers. Relax and enjoy your ranger belt(s). :thumbs-up:

 

They're also commonly worn with golf attire, both at resorts and country clubs. Very versatile accessory IMO, though when worn on active occasions (including walking 18 holes and carrying one's bag) the metal parts can get seedy-looking rather quickly.
