We now live in a world where our midsections have become prime realty for free advertisements. So forget the monograms and logos and go back to the basics. Good quality leather is all you need to keep your pants on. The belt is an accessory that tends to get neglected, but it can really pull your whole look together whether you are going casual or dressing up.

Wiley Brothers belts are a great investment. The company was created in 1999 by Marcus Wiley and since then, he has made it his mission to create handcrafted, high quality belts. The company started off with two belt options and has expanded to over 15 styles with endless colors, buckle styles and leather details.

The company uses the finest vegetable-tanned English bridle leather available and their brass buckles are cast locally. This is a belt that will continue to improve with age. What makes the Wiley Brothers a fascinating story is how strongly they emphasize quality over quantity. The belts are also made in the United States.

So what are some of the styles available?

While the traditional style is clean and sleek, The Wiley Brothers don’t shy away from their wild side with snake belt buckles made from white bronze and a baby sea turtle buckle made from a shiny brass. The Millington is an interesting take on the classic belt buckle and the classic Hoof Pick buckle is unlike anything you’ve seen before.

All belts are customizable and can be monogramed as well.

Check out the Wiley Brothers website and find yourself a belt that with hold up it’s quality and your pants.

Joey Pants lives up to his name with &SONS

The hardest working man in Hollywood needs a great work pant

Joey Pants

Joe Pantoliano is one of the hardest-working men in Hollywood. His upcoming appearance in the Dexter prequel, Dexter: Original Sin, gives him 169 credits to his name. But it isn't just the number of credits he has on his resume; it is also the kinds of roles he plays. He carried the first Matrix movie in an utterly underrated role as the mole on the ship. He was the only person in all of Miami who could keep Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence) in line in the Bad Boys franchise, and let's not forget that he was the most charming member of Deputy Sam Girard's (Tommy Lee Jones) warrant squad in The Fugitive (both movies). A man that works this hard needs a good work pant, and that is where classic Americana master &SONS came to the rescue.
The perfect product for a Hollywood icon

Joe Pantoliano has a very Italian name, and the heritage of such a name likely helped him land the role of Ralph on The Sopranos. However, the difficult time some people have in pronouncing that name led him to earn the nickname Joey Pants. That is the perfect nickname for a man who is a fan of the leader in stylish old-world workwear. When he asked &SONS to deliver their work pant in a new color, they delivered the Churchill blue. But they didn't stop there, they honored their famous fan with a patch with his face on it and called this pant, "Joey's Crew." The perfect work pants for the hardest worker in Hollywood. Now, he is going to do it in an even more stylish way.
