I love belts. There is something about truly using what belt loops were made for to make you feel like a real person. A whole person, even spiritually. So I am all about APPLEBUM's Basketball belt.
This baby is textured to look and feel like a basketball, with the interior made out of durable leather. All of the hardware is matte black, so it perfectly accents the orange color of the Basketball belt.

With an all too evident rise in interest-driven clothing, as opposed to brand-driven clothes, a belt with texture that resembles a basketball is the perfect product for a fan of the sport.
