C4 Belts is a fashion social enterprise founded by four American friends sharing a house in China. The C4 Belts line allows customization of the color of the belt itself and the buckle, and also allows the customer to choose a cause toward which the donation portion of the price goes.
The four causes supported by C4 Belts are the Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the Human Rights Campaign, Project Kaisei and Kiva. There are 20 colors to choose from for the two parts of the belt.
The stylish belts serve a basic purpose as well, since the group was first inspired to design better belts as they became bored with a boring leather belt. The belts are also waterproof, vegan and eco-friendly and can be customized into up to 400 combinations.
