Automatic Buckle Belts

Marino Genuine Leather belt, 1.5″ Wide, Casual Ratchet Belt with Automatic Buckle,Ratchet-Style Belt Buckles Make Dressing Easier For Elderly Gentlemen

I ran across the best automatic ratchet style buckle belts (aka ratchet buckle or slide buckle) for elderly men by accident – a good accident that is.

I purchased an automatic buckle belt (what is an ‘automatic rachet buckle belt’? Stay with me….) for my fiance, John. Upon wearing his new slide belt for just a week, he proclaimed to me that it was the best belt he’d ever found! OK, I’ve held you in suspense long enough….

An automatic rachet style buckle belt is one by which there are no holes or metal pieces by which to adjust the belt- that’s right; it’s a slide belt. Just slide the belt part into the buckle, adjust to the exact size you want and push the buckle down to lock it in. Lifting the belt buckle releases the hold on the belt so it can easily slip off.

Having no holes in this belt means that Thanksgiving dinner partakers can easily loosen their belt and adjust it half a size up (or down – not that’s not happening).

But, what makes these rachet style belts even better is that they can very easily and efficiently be cut down to size! Most come in two sizes – there’s up to 44″ and then there’s an automatic slide belt up to 54″.

When I saw how much John loved his belt with no holes, I started thinking about my dear Dad and how much he would have loved this type of belt. I watched my elderly Dad struggle many mornings with getting dressed.

Before his Parkinson’s pill kicked in, Dad was pretty shaky and had a hard time doing things like buckling his belt. But, with one of these slide belts? He would have been good to go in short order.

And, for the elderly gentleman, I also like that you don’t have to know his exact waist size to purchase the perfect belt! These automatic belts would work for anyone.

Each of the belts have many options, including belt buckle style. The automatic buckle belts come in so colors and textures that your favorite senior citizen gentleman can coordinate his belt to his golf shorts!

Leather Automatic Buckle Belts

I gave John on of these leather slide buckle belts in brown. Once I saw how much he loved it, I purchased another with a beautiful textured slide buckle for Valentine’s Day.

Fabric Slide Belts

I’ve discovered that the military is way ahead of me in mens’ fashion as these belts are called ‘military belts’ when they’re in fabric style.
