What materials are used to make The Century Belt?

The Century Belt is handcrafted in Australia using 5mm thick, 38mm wide chrome girth point leather from Thomas Ware & Sons in Bristol, UK. It also features a solid brass (gold or nickel-plated silver) roller buckle and keeper, ensuring exceptional strength and durability.

Is The Century Belt really guaranteed for 100 years?

Yes! The Century Belt comes with a genuine 100 year guarantee. The premium girth point leather and solid brass hardware are chosen for their durability and longevity, making the belt a true lifelong investment.

How do I choose the correct size for The Century Belt?

The Century Belt is available for waist sizes up to 137cm (50" pants). For an ideal fit, select the size that matches your pant waist size or refer to our sizing guide. We offer sizes from 77cm (26" or smaller) up to 137cm (50").

Does The Century Belt require special care or maintenance?

The Century Belt's girth point leather is highly durable due to its high wax content. It may be firm at first but will soften with use. Occasional conditioning with a quality leather balm is recommended to maintain flexibility and appearance.

Can I have The Century Belt embossed or personalized?

Yes, you can have The Century Belt embossed with your name or initials. Please select the "Plain" stamp option, as gold or silver foil does not adhere well to the high wax content leather.

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.
