~Elt is the latest product from Sruli Recht's poetic collection of accessories. Inspired by the way fingers lock together when clasping our hands, this lead to the idea of using a series of teeth for fastening instead of a belt buckle. Not only does this technique allow the belt to remain flat to the body–versus any kind of knot, fastener etc.–with no metal components at all, it's one less item to remove next time you're clearing airport security. And while you're checking out his site, don't miss the bulletproof handkerchief, the ideal pocket square for your next formal occasion.

Made in Iceland, the Buckless Belt is water-jet cut, packaged in a hand-made vertical feed box, available in flesh, bone, ash and rust and in widths of 3, 4 and 5 cm. Find them at BBlessing in New York and BelleVille in Reykjavik.
