A team roper's buckle has to look sharp and sit quietly on the belt, and this Crumrine oval buckle does both. The team roper motif ties it to the roping events, and the tricolor finish gives it a look that works from the arena to a Friday night in town.
Oval buckles are a classic western shape. The 4 by 3 1/4 inch frame is big enough to be noticed and clean enough to sit under a shirt and a belt without crowding either. It is a simple way to add a finishing touch to a belt you already own.

Why an oval buckle
An oval buckle is a versatile shape for western belts. It works with a plain leather strap or a carved one, and it looks right on jeans, work pants and dress slacks. If you want one buckle that goes with most of your belts, an oval is the easy choice.
Team roping is a rodeo event where two riders work together, a header and a heeler, and the team roper motif is a nod to that partnership. Riders and fans who spend weekends at the arena like buckles that carry a meaning, and this one suits a roper, a ranch hand or anyone who likes western details.

How to use it
Check the strap width on your belt before you swap, so the buckle sits centered in the frame. Thread the strap through the buckle and set the tongue on the hole that fits your waist.
Once it is on, wear the belt with the buckle centered over the front. A quick wipe with a soft cloth keeps the finish bright, and a belt with a plain strap keeps the buckle in the spotlight.
Good to know
Pairing: Wear it with a plain leather belt, jeans and a work shirt for the arena, or dress slacks and a pressed shirt for a night out. A pair of western boots from the same look finishes the outfit.
Fit: An oval buckle looks best when the strap sits centered in the frame. Measure the strap width before you choose a belt, and keep the buckle and strap in proportion.
Care: Keep the buckle dry and wipe off dust after a day in the arena. Hang the belt up when it is not in use so the buckle does not scratch the belt beside it, and use a soft cloth to keep the tricolor finish from dulling.
