Work Belts and Braces You Can Rely On
Whether you’re climbing ladders, hauling gear, or working through a long shift, a reliable belt or pair of braces keeps your workwear where it needs to be.
This collection brings together practical options for every kind of job, with a range of belts and braces from trusted names like Dickies, DeWalt, and Helly Hansen.
Different Types of Workwear Belts
When it comes to work belts, the material matters.
Webbing belts are incredibly durable and resistant to fraying or stretching, even when exposed to harsh weather or heavy loads. This makes them perfect for workers who are constantly on the move, climbing, or needing flexibility.
For outdoor work, especially in unpredictable weather, webbing belts are a great choice. They’re water-resistant, quick-drying, and won’t crack or wear down when exposed to moisture or extreme temperatures. Leather belts are also durable but may need extra care to protect them from rain and humidity, such as applying leather conditioner regularly to prevent cracking.
Choose based on your working environment - if you need more flexibility and weather-resistance, go with webbing; for a durable and classic option, leather may be the way to go.
Why Work Belts Matter
A belt isn’t just there to stop your trousers from falling down. A well-fitted belt evenly distributes weight, which is especially helpful if you’re wearing heavier work trousers with reinforced knees or tool pockets.
This keeps them secure and stops them from sliding, so you can get on with the job without interruptions.
Are Braces a Better Than Belts?
Braces for trousers offer an alternative that some workers prefer. Instead of relying on your waist for support, braces spread the weight across your shoulders for maximum comfort. This can ease pressure on your lower back, which is particularly useful if you’re carrying tools or working long shifts.
They also prevent your trousers from sliding down, even when carrying tools or heavy gear. If you find that belts dig into your waist or aren’t comfortable for long shifts, braces could be a better option for support and ease of movement.
Features of a Decent Belt for Work Trousers
Adjustable buckles make a big difference, letting you fine-tune the fit. Many heavy-duty belts also come with loops or slots for tools, so you can keep the essentials close without weighing yourself down.
For those who need a belt that can carry heavier gear, leather belts often feature reinforced belt loops or attachments, while webbing belts are great for smaller items like keys or tape measures.
Getting the Right Size Belt
To choose the right size, it’s best to measure your waist over your work trousers, as belts are usually worn over layers. For leather belts, add about 2 inches to your actual waist size for a comfortable fit.
Webbing belts, which are often more adjustable, usually come in a one-size-fits-all option, with plenty of room for adjustment via the buckle or straps. Most belts also come with size guides, so check the product details to match your waist measurement to the appropriate belt size.
Care Tips for Workwear Belts
Leather belts need occasional cleaning to remove dirt, plus a quick application of leather conditioner every few months to prevent cracking and keep the leather soft. If your belt gets wet, let it air dry naturally, as direct heat like radiators can cause damage.
Webbing belts are easier to maintain. They can be wiped clean with a damp cloth and dry quickly, so they’re ready to use again in no time. Braces, or suspenders as you may know them by, are low-maintenance too - just check the straps and clips every now and then to make sure they’re secure.
