Can anyone answer a question for me?
We've been approached by a company asking if we'd like to do business with them. It's an opportunity to expand our products and we'd like to do it but...

It's selling belt buckles on our site and at our shows. Does anyone still wear belt buckles?

I'm just curious. Thanks for the input.

1. White crackers still live for the belt buckle.
Here in deepest darkest SC, I see a lot of American flag, Nascar, and Ruger, Harley, etc belt buckles. That demographic might turn you off this venture.

4. Some people consider their belt buckle an accessory...
...I don't, but some people do. Everyone that wears a belt has to have a buckle. Some people enjoy individualizing.

5. I make belts
Bikers like them (oval only)cowboys like them.Nascar dads only have one, for race day.My opinion is people are pretty much satisfied with a cardboard belt and a heelbar buckle except on special occasion.

6. My dad collects belt buckles...
But he never wears them.

I'm from a strange family.
