Closets tend to have relatively low humidity levels, and they\u2019re also out of the way from harmful sunlight. These are the perfect conditions for storing belts, leather or otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few ways to store belts in a closet. Depending on the size of the closet you have (or, more importantly, how crowded your closet is), one of these methods may work better than others.<\/p>\n<h3>Use a Belt Rack<\/h3>\n<p>One excellent way to store belts safely and neatly is to use a belt rack. A belt rack is just a set of hooks on a metal bar or wooden board that attaches to a flat surface.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_519980\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-519980\" style=\"width: 956px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-519980\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belt-Rack.jpg\" alt=\"Belt Rack\" width=\"956\" height=\"956\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belt-Rack.jpg 956w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belt-Rack-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belt-Rack-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belt-Rack-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belt-Rack-590x590.jpg 590w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 956px) 100vw, 956px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-519980\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Bed Bath &amp; Beyond<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Belts can hang by their buckles on the hooks with their tails left to dangle.

They unhook from the rod easily and allow you to get a look at all of your belts at one time.<\/p>\n<p>Just slide the belt you want out, or replace the one you no longer need by sliding it through one of the slots. Simply place the organizer back on the rod when you\u2019re finished.<\/p>\n<p>The issue with belt organizers is they require quite a bit of space. Some take up the equivalent of four or five shirts that could be properly hung on the rod.<\/p>\n<h3>Try a Sliding Belt Rack<\/h3>\n<p>If you keep your clothes in an armoire, or your closet contains cabinetry, a sliding belt rack is an excellent space-saving solution.<\/p>\n<p>Sliding belt racks work similarly to the slides attached to your kitchen drawers. You can install them on the side of a cabinet, inside of your armoire, or even inside of a basic closet provided you have room on either side of the door.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_520043\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-520043\" style=\"width: 930px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-520043 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Sliding-Belt-Rack-e1594800996902.jpg\" alt=\"Sliding Belt Rack\" width=\"930\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Sliding-Belt-Rack-e1594800996902.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Sliding-Belt-Rack-e1594800996902-279x300.jpg 279w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Sliding-Belt-Rack-e1594800996902-768x826.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-520043\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+npWvbYsLcThm-AH_fvy_nA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"10496\">Check current price on The Home Depot<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Sliding belt racks use ball-bearings so that their sections slide freely over the top of each other, minimizing the amount of space required to hang your belts.<\/p>\n<p>You simply hang your belts\u2019 buckles on the hooks and slide them away until you need one again. They\u2019re neat and orderly, and most of the time, you can\u2019t even see them.<\/p>\n<p>Sliding belt racks aren\u2019t much more expensive to purchase than the other organizers we mentioned. The drawback is that they require the right mounting location to work to their fullest potential. If your closet is small, it\u2019s unlikely a sliding rack will work for you at all.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Roll_and_Store_a_Belt\"><\/span>How to Roll and Store a Belt<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the simplest ways to store your belts is to roll them, as it allows you to store several belts in one compact space.<\/p>\n<p>To roll a belt, start at the buckle end and roll towards the tail end. Be sure to keep the roll tight and even as you go. Rolling from the buckle end prevents the roll from being too tight, which will damage or deform your belt.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting you shouldn&#8217;t roll certain belts. Leather belts, in particular, are susceptible to cracking, both while stored or when being unrolled. Even for the most casual utility-style belt, cracks are a sign that the end is near.<\/p>\n<div class=\"content-box-gray\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>You May Also Like&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Are you enjoying this article?

This will help them to last longer and take on a proper patina.<\/p>\n<p>If a neatly-rolled belt with a loose tail really irks you, you can use wool thread to lightly wrap your belt and tie it in its rolled form.<\/p>\n<p>A neat bow knot will hold just fine. For even more organization, wrapping a coordinating NATO or Zulu watch strap around the belt makes your belt drawer a one-stop-shop for matching casual accessories.<\/p>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve rolled your belts, you\u2019ll need an easy way to keep them organized. You should be looking for an option that keeps belts away from harmful conditions like humidity and sunlight. It also should be easy to sort through when you\u2019re looking for a specific belt.<\/p>\n<p>There are better ways than shoving your gold-toes aside and jamming your belts into your sock drawer. Commandeering an entire drawer may be the only way to store a large collection of belts. You might also consider a separate box altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few great ideas on how to store rolled belts:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Store_Belts_in_a_Drawer\"><\/span>How to Store Belts in a Drawer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Storing belts side-by-side in a drawer is a sure way to keep them neatly organized. Sandwiched together, they\u2019re unlikely to unravel.<\/p>\n<p>If they\u2019re kept in a single layer, they\u2019re easy to inventory and sort through during a morning rush.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_520044\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-520044\" style=\"width: 1706px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-520044 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer.jpg\" alt=\"Belt Drawer\" width=\"1706\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer.jpg 1706w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer-682x1024.jpg 682w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Belts-Drawer-1365x2048.jpg 1365w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1706px) 100vw, 1706px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-520044\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: Houzz<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If you can only take over half of a drawer, you might need to stack your belts to get them all to fit. You can store at least twice as many belts in one space.<\/p>\n<p>This belt storage method has a major drawback, however: You\u2019re unlikely to remember which belts you placed on the bottom. You\u2019re also likely to mess up the other belts if the one you want is underneath several neatly-rolled belts.<\/p>\n<p>Also, it\u2019s important to note that a leather belt with a heavy dye placed next to a raw leather belt can have some unwanted side effects. The dye can bleed into the raw belt and cause staining and discoloration on both of them.<\/p>\n<h3>Try Using a Drawer Organizer<\/h3>\n<p>A better option for drawer storage is to use a draw organization kit. These kits contain adjustable dividing walls that use tension to hold their position.<\/p>\n<p>They create individual cubbies or pockets for each belt, keeping them safe, neat, and organized.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_520045\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-520045\" style=\"width: 2000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-520045 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer.jpg\" alt=\"Drawer Organizer\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Draw-Organizer-590x590.jpg 590w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-520045\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B0CHFKP3KN?tag=themodestman-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"10497\" data-lasso-name=\"Vtopmart Drawer Dividers for Clothes 8 Pack, Adjustable 4&quot; High Expandable from 11.6&quot;-17&quot; Dresser Drawer Organizer, Plastic Drawers Separators for Dresser, Baby Clothes, Kitchen and Off...\">Check current price on Amazon<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>For the best results, set your organizer up to hold your rolled belts on end instead of laying them flat.<\/p>\n<p>This is best for two reasons; you can store more belts in a given space, and you\u2019ll have an easier time finding the belt you\u2019re looking for.

Like a watch display box, many belt boxes have glass lids that display your belt collection, provided you have a fashionable shelf or dresser to place it on.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s best to keep these storage boxes out of direct sunlight. A glass top can amplify the sun\u2019s effect on leather belts, but it can also discolor a fabric belt just as easily.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DIY_Alternatives_for_Storing_Belts\"><\/span>DIY Alternatives for Storing Belts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are really only two options for storing belts; hanging or rolling. Working within those very tight parameters, a handy gentleman can most likely come up with his own method for storing belts. This doesn\u2019t include half-driven framing nails on a splintered 2&#215;4.<\/p>\n<p>The following are a couple of ideas to get your wheels turning.<\/p>\n<h3>Make a Hanger-Based Belt Rack for Your Closet Rod<\/h3>\n<p>You can create a perfectly functional belt rack with small cup hooks and a wooden hanger.<\/p>\n<p>Working from the hanger\u2019s underside, use a small drill bit to create pilot holes every inch or so. Screw the cup hooks into these holes. You can hang up to eight belts easily in a tiny amount of space.<\/p>\n<p>This rack can hang on the closet rod or from the back of your closet door with an over-the-door hook. Just remember to position the cup hooks so that belts won\u2019t fall off every time the hanger swings.<\/p>\n<h3>Create Your Own Drawer or Storage Box Dividers<\/h3>\n<p>If you have some confidence in your finish carpentry skills, you might consider building your own drawer-divider system. Using 1\/4-inch wood, wood glue, and finish nails, you can create a drop-in system that\u2019s entirely customizable for your exact needs.<\/p>\n<p>The best wood species for a home-built divider system is cedar. It smells incredible, insects hate it, and it won\u2019t damage your belts.<\/p>\n<p>You can finish it with a natural oil like neatsfoot or boiled linseed oil for longevity. Just be sure it\u2019s dry before you start loading it up. Otherwise, you might transfer oils onto your belts. This can be a really classy touch to a repurposed humidor.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Choice_Is_Yours\"><\/span>The Choice Is Yours<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whichever method you decide on to store your belts, you can create a functional system for keeping these important accessories in good condition and order.<\/p>\n<p>Whether it be hanging from the back wall of your closet or rolled neatly in a display box, maintaining your belts with regular cleaning and conditioning will ensure you can use your belt and the chosen storage for years to come.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Need to make sense of your belt organization?

He enjoys spending time with his wife and children, hiking, photography, and just about every hobby known to man. Background: Tom has a background in law enforcement and commercial construction, so you might say he got into everyday carry and gear by necessity. Somewhere along the way, he developed an interest in watches and photography, two passions that go hand in hand (or wrist). Tom lives in the Hudson Valley region of New York, where he spends his time writing, mountain biking, beekeeping, fishing, photographing gear and hanging out with his family. Expertise: Tom has written about watches, home design, cars and EDC for publications including Forbes, MSN, Domino, SPY and Bob Vila. Here at TMM, he's a trusted advisor on all things watches and EDC.","sameAs":["https:\/\/tomscalisi.com\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/the_graying_area\/","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/tom-scalisi\/"],"url":"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/author\/tom\/"}]}},"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg","featured_image_src_square":"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"Tom Scalisi","author_link":"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/author\/tom\/"},"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg",1080,1080,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured-250x250.jpg",250,250,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured-300x300.jpg",300,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured-768x768.jpg",768,768,true],"large":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured-1024x1024.jpg",1024,1024,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg",1080,1080,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg",1080,1080,false],"featured-image":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured-590x590.jpg",590,590,true],"featured-outfit":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured-650x880.jpg",650,880,true],"gb-block-post-grid-landscape":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg",400,400,false],"gb-block-post-grid-square":["https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/how-to-store-belts-featured.jpg",600,600,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Tom Scalisi","author_link":"https:\/\/www.themodestman.com\/author\/tom\/"},"uagb_comment_info":8,"uagb_excerpt":"Need to make sense of your belt organization?
