What Iced Out Belt Buckles Are All About
What do rappers, R&B stars, and rodeo cowboys have in common? Well, until a few years ago, most people would have said they have absolutely nothing in common. These are individuals at opposite ends of the spectrum when it comes to lifestyle, habits, hobbies, and jobs. They might shop at the same grocery stores, and put their pants on one leg at a time, but other than breathing air, there isn’t a whole lot that these groups would share. At least, not until iced out belt buckles came along. These Buckles are a stylish trend that both the urban and rural communities have adopted.
An Iced out belt buckle is an accessory that has been covered in either precious stones or extremely flashy costume jewelry. They often have words, sayings, or symbols on them, brought into stark relief with eye-catching crystals or mirrored adornments that reflect the light, making them appear to shimmer and sparkle. They are designed to attract attention. They are worn by both men and women, usually with words that say something about themselves that is loud and clear to anyone that sees it. Iced out clips are a marriage of urban bling with the ostentatious belt clasps of rodeo champions.
The term “Iced Out” comes from the urban slang term for diamonds. Diamonds are often referred to as “Ice” and as such referring to “iced out belt buckles” alludes to the buckle appearing to be adorned with diamonds, whether actual diamonds are used or not. They are sometimes worn as buckles, but equally commonly they are worn on a necklace or lanyard placed around the neck. Often this is because urban styles of dress typically cover the belt buckle, such that they would not otherwise be seen if worn in the traditional style.
Iced Out accessories come in a variety of styles, sizes, and costs. Some celebrity rappers or artists actually pay to have the belt buckle studded with diamonds or other precious stones. It is the ultimate display of wealth and status to wear something as simple as a belt buckle adorned with an array of expensive gems. The price of these products can vary widely depending on the materials used to construct them. They can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars if actually decorated with diamonds, but significantly less expensive versions are available for purchase that utilize crystals or other stones.
iced out belt buckles have waxed and waned in popularity according to whether or not celebrities have been seen wearing them. They can still be found around the necks and waists of several rapping and singing artists, as well as at dance clubs and bars around the country. They can be bought both off the shelf, and in personalized form with whatever words, sayings, or names are desired. While they are still a predominantly urban style, more and more iced-out belting clasps are seen being worn by youth from any and all parts of the country. Therefore, they are famous and appreciated tiny accessories that would enhance anyone’s fashion outfits.
