This is Anvil Hides ultimate belt, no doubt about it.
Made out of world-renowned Herman Oak Old World Russet this is the finest harness leather we can get our hands on.
Want a belt you can hang an axe off? No problem. This belt is built for work
A belt you can wear for the next 30 years and then hand down to your grandkids? This is it.
Rich in character, this tough leather is made for the outdoors as is the go-to for saddle makers around the world. Truly gets better with age this belt will patina richly over the coming years, It will come quite light in colour but will darken over quite a lot over time - in a few months it will look quite a lot darker. Many tanneries around the world attempt to replicate this leather, none do successfully.
Herman Oak (St Louis, USA) describe this incredible leather as a "Traditional Harness leather just like your grandfather used. Stuffed in drums with heavy tallow for exceptional weather wear, thickness and durability in the field."
Fair warning, this belt is thickand wide. It will not fit in every pair of pants you own but will fit most jeans or chinos. (If you want to check, measure your pant loops and if they are around 50mm high you will be fine).
If you are concerned that this belt will be too thick and bulky for you I am able to skive (thin) the leather down to whatever thickness you prefer eg. 5mm, 6mm etc. Simply leave me a “note” in the notes box on the cart page requesting your ideal leather thickness.
Features:
44mm wide, 5.5 - 7mm thick Old World Harness leather
Solid Brass, antique brass or Stainless steel double tongued roller buckle.(Stainless single tongue buckle also available by request)
Removable chicago screws to match buckle.
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 many requests, I also now make this belt in Black, Dark Brown and Oxblood colours Please click this link!!
