I have always been a fan of the use of surface texture on buckles and this new oval buckle design has a particular charm. The surface relief with its multiple height dome shaped rivets makes for a really tactile buckle and this effect also gives greater colour contrast with deeper tones in between the domes. This is the type of buckle that you could dress up with a smarter leather and use for a contemporary look, equally you could dress it down by pairing it with a more casual leather.
