No. 2 Leather Ranger Belt
The Ranger Belt, inspired both by western and sporting influences and a bit more casual in feel, has long been a staple in the gentleman’s wardrobe. And now Colonel has taken our No. 2 Ranger Belt to a whole new level of quality and excitement. He’s made it in our richly-textured Tobacco Brown American Buffalo and given it a look of subtle sophistication by trimming it in American Alligator, which sets off the 3-piece silver-plated buckle, keepers, and tip to perfection.
“Our line of belts is different from what you’ll see anywhere else. They’re so much more than just a utilitarian strip of leather to hold your pants up – they make a statement. I designed our belt collection with more than a nod to the military and sportsman’s tradition. When our first belt design was introduced, the general reaction was ‘Why hasn’t someone thought of this before?’ The design was so unique I applied for and received a patent on the basic design in 1997. The No. 2 Ranger Belt has been an important part of our belt offering for many years, and I am pleased to add this new model in a stellar combination of Tobacco Brown American Buffalo and American Alligator to the line.”

The uniqueness of our collection of belts is in the adjusting feature. The traditional front buckle allows only three inches of fluctuation. Colonel’s belt adds another 8 inches, adjusting in one-inch increments. This means that one size fits almost everyone, which also makes it a great gift item. Here’s how it works. Rather than adjusting and readjusting the belt in the front and damaging the leather over time, you park it in the middle position, where it belongs, and make any necessary adjustments on the side. That way if you have on bulkier trousers, a heavyweight shirt, or layers for warmth . . . if you lose a few pounds or, heaven forbid, gain a few . . . your belt accommodates all these variations nicely.
Aside from being one of the most functional and practical belt collections on the market, our collection looks uncommonly good . . . especially with khakis and jeans, for which it was designed.

When it comes to American Buffalo, Colonel says, “Expect a leather that is unapologetically rugged with more character, nicks, scrapes and variations in color.” Learn more about our American Buffalo Leather.

I looked for quite some time at the No. 2 Ranger and finally decided to pick one up. After purchasing quite a few Colonel Littleton items over the years and never being disappointed, I knew I would be happy when it arrived. The Colonel truly has a gift of design and appreciation of leathers that distinguish his products from any other. Attention to detail is like no other. I can’t say enough about how you feel as a customer when the package arrives with a hand written note thanking you for your purchase, an initialed inspection tag, a small additional token gift and last but not least the delicious Moon Pie!! Thanks again for the great products and the Excellent customer service. The blend of American Buffalo & American Alligator makes for a stunning belt that will be part of my wardrobe for years to come.
