Intellectual property rights

We developed a unique way of marketing and packaging our products. This distinguishes La Boucle from all other companies active in the belt market.

Our brand identity is based on a strong name LA BOUCLE, a relatable snake logo and most of all a luxurious, easily recognisable packaging and presentation.

The packaging contains inter alia the following distinguishing features:

  • a white luxury finished carton box;
  • with a drawer feature;
  • containing a red cotton lid (“label”) to open the drawer;
  • showing an image of the belt on the top (front end of the belt) and bottom (back end of the belt);
  • the square surface opposite the label has entirely the colour of the belt (for example blue);
  • the wording and logos on the box are in blue, red and white.

The belt presents inter alia the following distinguishing features:

  • the Snake logo is featured in the leather part, at the beginning and the end of the belt
  • a red cotton label is featured on the side of the leather part, at the beginning and the end of the belt

The belt is presented in an original and recognisable way with its packaging and displays.
