Selected for its exceptional qualities (moister resistance, longevity, suppleness) Harness leather has been long used in the equine arena. Able to withstand many years of hard use while keeping it's excellent properties. This belt uses the same great leather. Two strips of full grain leather glued and sewn back to back make for a belt you won't soon compromise.

This belt is made from two layers of thick, durable, gently oiled, full grain leather. It has very distinct character that will only increase with time and use. Minor flaws in the finish (appearance only) mean that this belt has a head start on patina and individuality. It's supple and strong; beautiful in hand and around waist.
WHY FULL GRAIN LEATHER?
Unlike top grain leather, which has been compromised by splitting the outermost and strongest layer of the hide off, full-grain means there will be no splitting or cracking since it still retains its natural grain and integrity. Holes will not stretch or rip, and the same simple quality is ensured year after year (I think they improve in looks with age). I fasten all my buckles with Chicago screws to make them easily interchanged with your favorite buckle.
