Introducing The Century Belt, the belt with a 100 year guarantee.
Handcrafted in Australia using 5mm thick, 38mm wide strap, this belt is made using chrome girth point leather* from Thomas Ware and Sons in Bristol, UK - this is a leather belt like no other.
The matte solid brass or silver (solid brass with a nickel plate) roller buckle and keeper will make this belt a timeless investment you'll want to hand down to the grandchildren and with manufacture year stamped behind the buckle, you can show them when you bought it - all those years ago...
We know of no other company using this rather expensive to source leather in a belt and due to the quality and durability of both the over the top leather and thick solid brass hardware, we know that The Century Belt will certainly hold up to our 100 year guarantee.
Features:
38mm wide belt dark brown or black (note that the dark brown is indeed quite dark)
5mm thick chrome girth point (Thomas ware tannery Bristol, UK)
Matte Solid Brass (gold) or Solid brass Silver (nickel plate) buckle, keeper and Chicago screws
Tri-tip end and 7 x oval holes
”Makers date” stamped behind buckle
More about the incredible leather used in this belt:
*Girth point leather is specifically created for the equestrian trade to secure the saddle to the horse. It is a leather that requires three very distinct things - Strength (to hold the saddle to the horse), Durability (as it needs to resist wear and tear while being exposed to the elements) and Flexibility (to accomodate the movements of the horse and rider).
This leather has a high wax content making it firm to begin with, the belt will soften up over time and break in.
If embossing this belt with your names or initials, please choose "Plain" stamp as the gold and silver foil does not stick well to this leather due to the high wax content
Due to the strict criteria required in making girth point leather in the tannery only smaller hides are used and so we are only able to make this leather into belts for 137cm waists (50" pants) or less.
A good solid heavy duty product, heaps better than the RM Williams ones, & not much more expensive.
Cheers team.

Great product, great service.
Products of this quality are increasingly difficult to find.

The quality of the buckle and leather is just unbelievably good , if i was ordering again i would get the next size up as even though my pants size is 34 im on the last hole in the belt , this doesn't leave me much room for expansion over the next 99 years . Top product 10/10

Great quality and materials. Second belt and will get more.

Another great quality masterpiece. I have bought several others from anvilhide and this is the toughest and most premium of the lot. Thanks again for making these, handcrafted belts, such a unique item, different to mass produced items.

Really good product. I was having to buy belts every so often. After buying one of your belts, it’s been intact for over four years now. Thanks for making such great products.

Beautiful belt - not too wide and with heavy quality buckle. Leather is thick and fairly stiff. Probably will become softer with use. This is the 3rd belt I have purchased from Anvil Hide. I wear them almost every day.

Is an absolute tank with all high quality materials as you would expect,
I would give it an easy 5+ stars but for the colour. It is called ‘Dark Brown’ but only under specific lighting conditions can any brown be seen, its essentially a black belt

This belt didn’t disappoint, superb materials and craftsmanship I can’t wait to see it last 100 yrs because it looks like it will, highly recommended this belt

I absolutely love my belt from Anvil Hide and look forward to seeing if it will last a hundred years, materials and craftsmanship are superb

A very sturdy well crafted belt that will stand up to the daily rigours that farm life can throw at it for decades. Love that it is actually an all brass buckle because the brass buckled belts from other manufacturers contain nickel which reacts with my skin causing a severe discomfort. Thank you for creating the last belt that one shall never need to purchase. Well done sir.

I bought a Classic belt 4 years ago and wear it everyday and it is still looking great with many years of wear left.
When I saw the Century Belt I just had to by one. Great quality brass buckle and I love the quality of the nice thick leather.
The two Anvil hide belts I have will out live me!
David R.
Fantastic quality, yet again. Also appreciate the extra effort to reach out to clarify order details. Thanks Aaron.
