Talk:Belt buckle

Merger with Belt (clothing)

I would say No. Belt Buckles are not only an article of clothing, they are (sadly) a status symbol in the Southern United States, and because of the many designs, this article of clothing is deserving of its own article. If anything, this article needs to be expanded. --Zpb52 04:57, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

agreed. i'll try to expand this a bit in the next few dtas.Joeyramoney 22:46, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

2 new pics added, mentioned ornamental buckles Joeyramoney 01:30, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Normally, ornamental belt buckles do not "attach to an original belt buckles." Ones that do this would be cheap imitation ornamental belt buckles as real ones function as actual belt buckles.

I think that ornamental belt buckles should have their own entry as it could be a pretty deep catagory in regards to them as an art form, cultural heritage, a status symbol, and as rodeo trophies. Any body up to it?siriustafari 06:56, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

The clasp type belt buckle was definitely NOT invented during the Elizabethan era, as can be seen by this 7th century Merovingian belt buckle: http://sv.wiki.x.io/wiki/Bild:Plaque-boucle_02.jpg Allan Akbar (talk) 15:53, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

I wonder if JW Cooper wrote this giant ad himself or had his webmaster do it. 211.133.143.74 (talk) 05:41, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Merger with Buckle

The Buckle entry is much more detailed and informative with regards to this topic. I suggest someone add that article to the Fashion WikiProject and add any relevant information from this stub to that article. Anyhoo... - beautypersoni (talk) 04:57, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Advertising?

It might be necessary to shorten or remove the references to JW Cooper. It reads like advertising copy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Idbdl2009 (talk • contribs) 13:35, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

box-out "buckle"

I cannot figure out what a box-out buckle is. The current revision has no physical description of the style, and all I can find in Google searches is copies of this text. If anyone has any idea what this is intended to refer to, please add clarification. Otherwise, perhaps it should be removed. -Verdatum (talk) 22:01, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Looks like fluffery. I'm tempted to take it out.Kortoso (talk) 18:13, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

It's nonsense. No description of "box out buckle." No picture. Lofty claims about how they "dominate production" (with no reference). They are "less functional but more fashionable." Than what? According to whom? The whole section is unsupported and opaque. I am deleting it. 172.58.221.23 (talk) 04:46, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
