Digdogger hates certain kind of fashion

We're about as nerdy about NES games as one can get without becoming a ruined shell of an eBay addict, but we're pretty sure we'd get self-conscious about walking around with this Legend of Zelda overworld map belt on. But, then, we'd be more self-conscious about walking around with no pantal support at all. ~~Alas, this belt is for ladies only, so we won't be testing our love of Zelda and secure pants against our modesty.~~

The belt will be available for sale on the 27th, at a special price of $15. Boy, this is really not expensive!

[Update: it's actually unisex. Also, I suppose it's silly to think of a belt being 'for ladies only.' If it looks like a belt you want to wear, wear it! Thanks to unbreakable_idea for the correction.]

"Alas, this belt is for ladies only, so we won't be testing our love of Zelda and secure pants against our modesty."

Alas, this statement, according to the very site you posted that's selling the belt, is completely false. It is listed under both women's and men's accesories, and therefore obviously unisex. Here's the "link" for the mentally impaired:

I don't normally shop on sites like this, but I'm seriously considering this one.
It's abstract enough that it isn't as obviously nerd-tacular as a Nintendo controller belt buckle, and white belts are still pretty hot these days.

I just wish there were better photos and more info on what it's made out of. I know they may not be able to give us the best photos ever since it's still in the sample stage and they may not have any final product yet, but they could at least let us know if it's vinyl, nylon web, embossed leather, etc. I'm also really curious about the buckle - does it have an etched design or is it just plain?

Tch! The more info you can give a consumer the better!
