This handcrafted leather belt is the epitome of rugged luxury. Made by expert leathercrafters in the southeastern U.S., it is the perfect complement to any outfit, forging the ideal union of form and function. As with any quality full grain leather product, your unique use of the belt will change its shape, color, and texture over time. You are not only buying a belt – you are embarking on a journey to create something unique and personal over the coming months and years. The full grain bovine leather comes from the renowned Horween Leather Company in Chicago. Honing their craft since 1905, Horween uses old world techniques coupled with proprietary processes and their own formula of natural oils and greases to create a work of unmatched durability and natural beauty. Two key characteristics of expert full grain leather tanning are strongly evident in this belt: pullup and patina. Pullup is how leather tends to lighten in color when it is stretched or pulled. The easiest way to see this is by running your fingers firmly along the underside of the leather and watching how it temporarily changes the topside. Patina on leather is a soft sheen and darkening in color that develops over time and is caused by use and exposure to touch, dirt, and sunlight. This patina will be more evident on lighter colored leather. Every touch and wear of this leather belt crafts a unique story that develops and unfolds over time. Begin your story today. Note: as each cowhide is unique there will be variations in the leather color and markings for each belt.
