our mission, our whats, our whys

Our Mission

To make belts that actually matter—pieces that bring personality to your outfit, and purpose to your closet. We want to help people feel more themselves through what they wear, while also doing better for the planet. A belt shouldn’t just be something you throw on—it should be something you love.

 

 

What We Do

We’re Shopbelted—a belt company started by two college students with a dream and a shared obsession with cool, thoughtful style. We design original belts that are bold, elevated, and easy to wear, and we also hunt down secondhand gems for our ReLoved Collection.

  • Original Collections: Designed by us, made to stand out. Every belt has a name and a vibe—we think of them like characters in a lineup.

  • ReLoved Collection: Every piece in this collection is thrifted by hand. These belts already had a life before us, and now they get a second one with you. No two are the same, and that’s what makes them so special.

 

 

What Makes Us Unique

  • We actually wear everything: We design and source belts that we would (and do) wear every day.
     

  • Story-Driven Style: Each belt has a name and identity—think of it like a character in your wardrobe. We design with personality and intention.
     

  • We’re hands-on with everything: From naming each belt to styling the shoots to packing your orders, it’s just us. No big team—just two girls figuring it out and giving it our all.
     

  • We're young and real: We’re 20, juggling school, jobs, and running a business. We don’t have it all figured out, but we care deeply and we’re building this from the ground up.
     

  • ReLoved is the heart of it: This isn’t just about cute belts. It is sustainability with style. It’s about slowing down, giving old things new purpose, and making sustainable fashion feel exciting again.
     

  • Rooted in Real Life: Our idea didn’t start in a boardroom—it started behind a bagel counter. Shopbelted was born out of daydreams, friendship, and a shared drive to make something from nothing.

 

 

Our Why

Because belts are too often overlooked—and we’re here to change that.
Because sustainability shouldn’t sacrifice style.
Because accessories can be conversation starters.
Because your outfit deserves that final, unforgettable touch.

 

 

Brand Values

  • Individuality: Every belt, like every person, is one-of-a-kind.
