I got this belt at Structure in Philadelphia for US$35. I' got five notches on my belt
and 12 notches on the handle of my Smith and Wesson. I wear this belt for both style and
practicality I use a belt to look good and to keep my intestines from falling out.

My belt comes from a shop called Betty's Blue in Raraport, Funibashi, and it cost JY4900.
There are ten notches on my belt, and I definitely wear it for style. For me, snakeskin is
very fashionable, and that is what attracted me to this belt. And it's very kawaii.

I bought this belt at Daikanyama Gypsy for JY2500, and I wear it for style, of course.
There aren't any notches on my belt, but there are many links.
Keep your pants on Photos by Beezer
What's that fashionable object dangling from your waistline? This week, we sent our roving
reporter out to get the lowdown on that adored accessory that keeps you getting caught
with your pants down-belts. So, where did you buy it, and how much did it cost? How many
notches are on your belt? And do you wear it for style, or for practicality?

I bought my belt in Harajuku for JY550. What a bargain. I think it's a girl's belt,
though. There's only one notch on my belt... which is nice. At first I wore it for
practicality, but my trousers are too big and I'm too skinny. It cuts of the circulation
to my . . .

I didn't buy this belt-it was bought for me. How many notches are on my belt? Enough. I
guess I wear it for style, meaning that I only wear belts when I have to dress up for
work.
