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 thick and 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).

Features:

44mm wide, 5.5 - 7mm thick Old World Harness leather
Solid Brass or Stainless steel double tongued roller buckle.
Removable chicago screws to match buckle.

COLOUR UPDATE:

Due to many requests, I am now making this belt in Black, Dark Brown and Oxblood colours! Please click this link!!

While not the same Herman Oak leather is used for these other colours - we have gotten our hands on some really quality english bridle and harness leather from North American steers.

Black, Dark Brown and Oxblood belts are around the 5mm in thickness (where the Herman Oak Old World Harness is sometimes 7mm+ thick!) so if you want a belt that fits closer to the body, these new options will suit you perfectly.

Please use the size guide before you order!! Click here

SIZING

CM indicated is to the centre hole of 7 holes. Holes are 2.5cm apart (1 inch), that gives you 3 inches to go up or down before you run out of holes.

*if buying as a gift and an old belt is unavailable, belt sizes are true to pants size NOT ACTUAL INCHES (pants inches are not the same as true inches), if they're a 32" waisted pant , select a 32" belt.

Unfortunately as belts are made to order we cannot exchange for incorrect sizing*

If you belt size isn't shown, please reach out to us at hello@anvilhide.com for a custom order.

Do yourself a favour and pickup one of these unbreakable belts.Mines ageing nicely as i take it to work daily as a grave digger & it comes hunting on weekends.Only regret is not buying one sooner...

Simon B.

The toughest and nicest belt I’ve ever owned. Beautifully crafted and will get handed down as an heirloom. Perfect!

Roy G.

This belt is solid, very thick leather and just fits in the loop holes of my jeans. Very bold in terms of the buckle and weight. Unbreakable is an understatement!

Will O.

Extremely high quality, and exceptionally well made belt. It’s great to see true craftsmanship is still around in this modern throw away society! Cannot recommend an Anvil Hide belt enough. Love it!! Cheers! Will.

Tracey P.

My husband is so greatful to finally have found a great quality belt that will withstand his busy tradie lifestyle. This belt is made for the toughest of conditions & we are very happy that it’s Australian made! The delivery turnaround was quite fast too. Highly recommend this product & company!

John L.

This belt certainly appears unbreakable and stylish also Thanks Aaron

Vaughan S.

You could tow a truck with this thing! Loved the quality of the workmanship and the finish of the belt - Thanks

Iain M.

With the exception of the "AnvilHide" product I have been less than impressed with the last few belts I have purchased. All too soon the crack or otherwise fail, (mostly at the most inconvenient time). The "Anvil Hide" product however is an entirely different matter. The moment I set eyes on my new belt the first two words that came to mind were "Quality " and "Durability ". I'd like to tell you that I will be buying all my future belts from "Anvil Hide", unfortunately at my age, (69) I 'm doubtful that I 'll be needing any more. However, I have not the slightest hesitation in recommending them to anyone else, sure they might cost a bit more, but you get what you pay for and they're good people to deal with. Iain Moffatt

Solid belt, great colour...will order black next

Alex H.

This belt is a beast. Unbelievable quality - it looks and feels like it will last a lifetime and only improve with age. Best of all, it's from a local family business.

Tony M.

Excellent quality and fits perfect.

Sarah M.

Bought this belt for my husband as a birthday present and he LOVES it. Great quality, looks like it will last a long time and only get better with use Also received great customer service - fast and friendly when replying to enquiries.

I was looking for a good quality belt for ages! I then stumbled across the unbreakable belt, it seemed like good quality, so I thought why not! It has far exceeded my expectations of what a quality belt should be Very happy

Casey B.

In the last 8 years I have been through 4 bonded leather “work belts” from a big name producer that cost $59.95 each. I wear a belt everyday for work and at home each of the above belts cracked or split or the solid stainless buckles have snapped and ended up in the bin. The choice for me came down to economics I could buy 4 belts for $240 or an unbreakable belt with a 7 year guarantee for $189. Easy choice and the best decision I’ve made in terms of buying a belt plus I didn’t struggle to get the right size, great craftsmanship and quality product. 100% will recommend Anvil Hide Leatherworks.

Michael t.

This is the belt of all belts , the workmanship and the attention to detail and quality is second to none. I am a very fussy person and I cannot fault these belts ( I have 3 more different styles) . Aaron you are a true craftsman Cheers Mick

James M.

Bought this one for my son. He loves it. Very comfortable and certainly durable

James M.

Well crafted well finished very comfy

Tien T.

Dear, I got it 2 weeks ago and I like it , it’s look awesome Thanks

Ian

Brilliant! Could tow a truck with this belt. Very pleased- great work Aaron.

Rob M.

I am extremely happy with the "Unbreakable Belt", which should well and truly be the last belt I will need to hold up my britches. Aaron amazing quality of work including fittings and buckle, great work.

Andrew C.

Only Just turned up in the mail today but certainly well worth the wait!! Exactly what I wanted in a tough work belt. Much appreciated! Cheers.

David T.

Very thick wide leather, solid buckle, will last, genuine quality

Graeme B.

I know why it's called Unbreakable. A belt like this is a life long purchase. It's thick, solid, looks good and built excellently. It'll easily carry my 100kg if needed and probably more. Great craftmanship. Strongly recommend for the discerning belt wearer.

raphael m.

Thick leather, looks like my dad belt back in the old time.Love it!Well made and solid, beautiful grain in the leather and the colour is great.

Mitch V.

I Wanted a wide quality leather work belt and came across the anvil hide unbreakable Hermann Oak belt, I like the design and that's it's handmade in Australia, normally i wouldn't spend as much on something I'll be exposing to the harsh chemicals and environment at work but My previous full leather belt survived but is now retired after losing a bit of weight I'm very happy with the purchase This belt first very Nice and comfortable and not once did I have to lift And re settle my work pants because it's moved or the belt curled over, The quality is excellent and presentation awesome, I'm sure This Will be a good long term investment, Thanks

Natalie B.

Absolutely the BEST!!! Been looking for a belt like this for years and so glad to have found this. Comfortable, durable and will last a lifetime. Thanks for the superb craftsmanship

BRIGITTE W.

My husband loves it this will be his work belt

Glenys T.

Got the original unbreakable belt! Love it! Just what my husband wanted...perfect size, great quality, fabulous service ...got his initials embossed into it which was a nice personalised touch and well received! Thankyou I will be back!

Mitchell N.

Great belt, a belt that will last a lifetime, amazing quality and looks great.

Rob G.

Belt has already began ageing beautifully. Can't wait to see its patina in about a year! Do yourself a favour and buy this belt!

Geoff R.

My belt arrived as described and shown in pictures ,is very well made and the quality is easily recognizable . Thanks guys

Michael R.

Great Australian handmade product. Could not be happier and recommend them high enough.

Grayson R.

Huge huge fan of the unbreakable belt really can't recommend it enough. I've had mine for 4 months it's worn into a nice brown and all I've had to do is some basic maintenance to keep it in good condition and the only reason for that is I work in the tropics.

Michael M.

The quality is everything and more I could have hoped for. In this day and age where everything is disposable and poorly made this belt is the exact opposite. A true craftsman building things to last.

Andrew F.

Wish i had this belt 20 years ago,love it!Im confident it will last me a long time . Invested in this belt because i am sick of spending $50-$60 on other leather belts which start delaminating and breaking after 6 months and i'd much rather support an Australian small business.

Gary S.

Looked everywhere for the perfect belt. Turns out I didn't look hard enough or I'd have found Aaron and his superb quality products soon. I could not be happier with this belt.

Daniel B.

Awesome belt, looks and feels great. Thanks

Mark H.

I really love this belt it is the best belt i have purchased i will be buying another thank you so much great work.

Alexander W.

My son-in-law ordered this belt for my birthday not knowing in the 1 year of lockdown my waist has gone from 38 inches down to 33. I brought the belt back to Aaron. He put in extra holes for me while I waited & also made me an extra loop so the belt will fit nicely. I find that because the belt is much thicker & stronger my pants will not slip down as easily as wearing thinner belts. Terrific after sale service & comfortable belt to wear.

Lindsay .

Put it on today for the first time love it great

Xavier S.

Great belt well made and just under 7mm thick will last forever!!

Phil S.

Fantastic belt. If you spend time outdoors and need a belt to hang stuff off this is it. This will only get better with age and use. The raw finish is great and will gather it’s own patina with age. Will be back. These will make great presents!.

Ines G.

I was gifted a belt from my uncle as a child, it was a decent quality I’m not going to mention the brand but it was a well known mass produced trusted Australian outdoor brand and it lasted me a good ten year’s of hard use… However this belt I was recently gifted from my wife that she purchased from anvil hide is next level. It might take ten years just to wear it in! The patina over the years will tell many stories, thank you for a truly unbreakable and well made product, I’m happy to support a small quality artisan business such as yours.

Jamie

Yep, all the reviews are true. If your undecided, this is the real deal.

Tessa B.

I bought this for my Dad and he says "incredibly good quality" and that he wants to be "booked in for the next rodeo!". Thanks Anvil Hyde and Aaron!!

Lewis B.

Fantastic belt. I will be buying another in black at some point in the near future and will be getting my dad one for Christmas. Thanks!

Andy F.

Very well made extra heavy duty belt that looks great. Well worth the money.

Xavier S.

Love this belt amazing quality fits great so happy my mate put me on to this!!

Jim G.

I am stoked with this belt! It is outstanding quality and well worth it The ageing process has started, the belt is going darker after only 4 days wear. It arrived packaged in a paper parcel satchel folded in brown paper (no tape) inside a cardboard box with a signed note from the craftsman. Authentic and very rare in this plastic wrapped world. It fits jean belt loops snug and although solid is comfortable for me - a guy living the big belly life.

Russell I.

What a ripper, by far the best belt I have seen, and owned, I will be back, keep up the good work Aaron, stunning

Elton M.

Excellent workmanship! I’m pretty rough on gear so was really impressed with this mans man belt!!! Thanx Aaron…money well worth spent!

David P.

Just received my Unbreakable Belt and love it, should outlast me.

Mark F.

This was the best father's day gift - looks amazing, like it will last for ever. I can imagine that my son will wear this in time.

Jay S.

Photos don’t do this belt justice, it is seriously thick, chunky, well made, I have no doubt it will stand the test of time and it looks fantastic

Adam B.

The Unbreakable Belt - yeap, it sure does do what it says on the packet! Such a kick-arse belt. Seriously chunky and cool. It looks handmade and feels handmade - big ticks from me. I kinda feel like a tough guy, now. Probably glad I didn't have this belt when I was 18 - not wise enough back then to handle this belt's attitude. Love it!

John S.

Fantastic belt , very high quality

Finn T.

Early on but I know this belt is going to last. Twice as thick, keeps shape, more comfortable. Service is unbelievable. When they know your name it’s a good business! Thanks Aaron!

Simon D.

These belts are of excellent quality -incredibly sturdy and well-built. More importantly, they are made in Australia. I honestly think you could tow a vehicle with one. Each belt will seriously last a lifetime. Your kids will probably be able to wear your belt when they grow up and probably your grandchildren too. The fit is great. I am totally satisfied with my belts and couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Michael L.

Thank you for my new belt. I will be wearing it everyday as my old one broke but I am sure this one never will. This is very good quality and extremely well made. It arrived really early too.

Stewart M.

Absolutely love my Unbreakable belt and extremely fascinated by how the old world oak leather is made definitely the best and last belt I will ever need

Dion M.

How do you put a dollar value on a product that will last a lifetime & beyond? Without taking the piss, the unbreakable belt is the best-value personal item I've ever purchased. For ages & with zero success, I've been searching for a solid, strong & broad belt that goes with jeans. Across reputable & expensive brands, I've been so disappointed with having to settle for flimsy, artificial-feeling products that lose their structure within a few years. Everything about the unbreakable belt is great. The weight, the dimensions, the 1st-class materials, the design & most importantly: the feel. I'm very grateful to Aaron for crafting this belt for me. It's already a wardrobe cornerstone. P.S, purchased the Classic Belt too (in dark chocolate). It's a sturdy & versatile belt for everyday wear.

Steven G.

My first impression when opening the box and seeing my 2 new belts confirmed just how well made they actually are. Some of the nicest made belts I've ever owned. However, I realised I had made a big error in my conversion using the supplied sizing chart. Luckily I emailed AnvilHide and told Aaron my situation. I was aware of the company's sizing policy so I thought he might have other options that would help. Aaron offered to take the belts back which I ordered too big, and send out new belts in sized correctly. Aaron's actions and offer to help me were far more than I would have expected given the mistake was mine. So not only would I recommend AnvilHide based on quality but I would also recommend them based on there fantastic costumer service. As a result I about to purchase another belt , my son has already taken one of mine for himself. Thanks again for working with me to resolve my error.

Tim P.

Don’t shop often but when I do I buy stuff that’s quality and will last (think Redwing boots). This belt fits in that category. My boys will have to scrap over who gets it when I checkout.

Heath C.

A serious belt that was born to work.

rob g.

Exceptional quality belt

Michael G.

Absolute beast of a belt…I suspect it could tow a car if it had too. Seven year guarantee? Will go for seventy!

Bernard S.

Words don't do justice to the experience of receiving, opening, handling and wearing this belt. Worth every dollar and crafted with skill and passion. What an absolute beast this is. Like armouring your pants with an African Buffalo. This belt is to belts what the God particle is to astro-physics!

Randall H.

2nd purchase and just as happy with it as the first. Great products that gives what it says. Will be buying more as the needs arose.

Chad E.

The hype is real!!! Without a doubt, some of the best handmade leather goods available on the planet. Aaron was first class from start to finish, and his products speak for themselves. What you see is exactly what you get - the highest quality items delivered with exceptional service and care. I expected this belt to be a beast, but the word beast doesn’t do it justice. Not only is it a lifetime belt full of character, if you ever get stuck anywhere in your 4WD you’ve got an extra snatch strap around your waist to haul yourself out - it’s a monster!!! Started my Anvil Hide experience with a few items and am now looking forward to adding more amazing pieces asap. It doesn’t get any better than this!!!

Mathew K.

As a Carpenter for over 30yrs Ive gone through my fair share of work belts. Nothing has even come close to this. What a legend of a belt.

David M.

This belt is tough as nails will definitely outlive me, so well made with attention to detail and quality craftsmanship only found in a handmade leather belt and worth every dollar paid, thanks Aaron proud to wear one of your belts.

Toby R.

Super happy with my new belt! Authentically durable, with a classic design and awesome customer service from Aaron at Anvil Hide.

Allan H.

So glad I spent a bit more to get The Unbreakable. Truly, a serious belt for a serious man! Quality is excellent. Happy also to be supporting a young Aussie bloke having a go. Thanks Aaron and good luck!

Mathew K.

There’s workbelts and then there’s Anvilhide’s ultimate belt!! 30yrs of carpentry I know a good work belt, I have NEVER seen anything close to this, beyond my expectations! Thanks Aaron Bloody legend of a belt if you ask me.

Stuart S.

Great belt really will be unbreakable cheers

Michael L.

Thank you Aaron The quality of the workmanship and the leather is just outstanding. If like me and you are just that bit hesitant about the price, DON'T BE When you see it and fell the leather you will like me know it is well and truly worth every cent of the price.

Stuart L.

Fits perfectly, feels great .

Emma T.

Extremely happy with this belt, beautiful craftsmanship, it is comfortable to wear looks and feels great absolutely love it would recommend it to anyone

Neil R.

Thanks Aaron, the unbreakable belt... it’s a thing of beauty, strong, rich colours, solid hardware, this thing will last years Cheers Neil

Chih C.

This is the most amazing belt I have ever owned! The leather is super thick and the workmanship is impeccable. What attention to detail! Even the drive slots on the screw heads on the reverse of the belt are aligned!

Daniel K.

Love you t so far water it everyday

David R.

One hell of a belt Aaron,very happy with it

Richard H.

i have searched near and far to find the ultimate belt. when i opened the box i knew this was it. deciding on my next order now

Crispin M.

Better than expected I have never bought a belt made this well wow it will definitely out live me

Ismail K.

It’s beefy, built tough, perfect fit on my Japanese 25 oz selvidge denim jeans. Best of all it’s made with love in Australia by an Artisan. ( Shame my denim isn’t )

Jason A.

This is a beast of a belt, heirloom quality with flawless workmanship. It's a great rugged belt that looks great now and will only get better as it develops a prized patina as it ages.

Craig W.

Great service and product

Anthony H.

Well it all started with a few too many wines and a Facebook session where I stumbled upon Aaron’s offerings , mainly the world famous unbreakable belt . I immediately placed an order as I’m a stickler for quality and don’t mind spending money on good stuff when slightly tipsy . Nek minut , less than a week later a well packaged package landed on my door step . This belt is a real special beast which will clearly need wearing in over time and looks like it will last well beyond it’s 7 year guarantee. It smells great , looks awesome and is a work of art . I love it and may look into purchasing another just because ! I have no doubt if I need to tow a mate out of a bog in his 4wd then this is a perfect snatch strap joining strap not to mention if I get stuck in a dormant volcano with an impending eruption potential any time soon I will be rest assured that I’ll be fine knowing this belt will get me out of trouble . Do yourself a favour and add this to your everyday fashion and survival kit . It will be impossible to be disappointed even if you’re a gimp . Most importantly it’s great to support local Aussie quality goods . We need to do it more ! Well done Aaron

Andrew C.

Great friendly service and a really top quality product. The quality of the leather is amazing. Thanks

SANDY Z.

Amazing products and workmanship Aaron is a perfectionist and a gentleman

Luke H.

It was a gift so I don’t have a photo. The belt was everything I’d hoped for and made a exceptional present that will last for many many years

Andrew P.

Best belts I have ever purchased! I highly recommend them.

Rodney B.

Excellent service, Quality,Quality,Quality worth every cent!

Jason H.

Very pleased with the belt. Can see this lasting forever.

Latoya L.

Bought it for my partner for his birthday and he said “ best belt I’ve ever owned” he wishes it came in more colours so he could buy more! Thanks!!

Jason H.

I purchased the everyday belt a month ago and have been so impressed i have added the unbreakable. This is a serious beast of a belt, you can tell it will grow a personality with age.
