A couple of heavy belts sent out today, a hand dyed mahogany (left natural on the back for a lovely two-tone look) and a classic brown 👌
Made using 4mm vegetable tanned leather.

Just a small selection of funkier nickel buckles - the last 4 are examples of buckles with a built-in keeper, which gives the belt a sleeker look without the need for a leather keeper.

Pet Collar price list

24/10/2021

After a long online absence and much (too much) deliberation I've put together a price list for the belts and pet collars I'll be offering.

The pet collars come in 4 varieties for all kinds of furry friends, all of which are cut, made and saddle stitched by hand:

Lightweight Collar (2mm thick veg tan)
- Made from soft 2mm leather
- Great for small dogs/cats

Heavy Collar (3.5mm thick veg tan)
- Made from 3.5mm leather
- Suitable for larger pets/working dogs
- Hand oiled and buffed

Lined collar (3mm thick)
- Double layered collar made from 2mm leather with a 1mm leather liner
- Saddle stitch lining detail (+£10)

Each collar is hand finished with x7 buckle holes with 0.75" space between

All of my belts are currently made with 3.5mm vegetable tanned leather - the same as I use for the heavy dog collars.

These make great midweight belts.
The new and unworn leather will start quite stiff but with use will become more supple.
Constructed with a single piece of leather that won't fray or snap.

All hardware (buckles, D rings, split rings) will be secured with a double saddle stitch but post screws can be used instead.

Sitching available: Black, Brown or White
Screws available: Nickel, Brass, Antique Brass

Another little update of what's been happnin'!

I've only gone and finally gotten a brass stamp with my own logo on! (Designed by a graphical whiz!)
It's a great solid brass stamp that I'm still working the kinks out - in other words trying to get the cleanest results.

So while I'm figuring the stamp out I've also been working on some more belts and collars, as well as a luggage strap I've been prototyping in collaboration with Dukes Tyres and Tubes.

Have a nosy and let me know what you think 👌

Evenin'!

I'm now taking orders for custom belts and pet collars!

- All made using 3.5mm Full Grain Vegetable Tanned Leather
- Colours available: Black, Dark Brown and Saddle Tan (see images for examples)
- Belts are available in 3 different widths; 25mm, 32mm & 38mm
- Collars are available in 2 widths; 20mm & 25mm
- Made to order production time up to 1-2 Weeks
- Stock items will sent next working day (visit the Ebay shop!)

Sizes relate to belt measurement, which is roughly 2” bigger than your waist size
(e.g. someone with a 40” waist would order a 42” belt)

Veg Tan leather is quite rigid when it's new, but after some wear it breaks in and softens nicely!

Belts
Skinny Belt (Up to 50” long) - £28
- 1” width
- Brass or Nickel

Slim Belt (Up to 50” long) - £32
- 1.25” width
- Brass or Nickel

Standard Jeans Belt (Up to 50” long) - £35
- 1.5” width
- Brass or Nickel

Collars
Small Pet Collar (Up to 25” long) - £22
- 20mm width
- Nickel only
- Longer than 25" = £25

Medium Pet Collar (Up to 25” long) - £25
- 25mm width
- Nickel only
- Longer than 25" = £28

Accessories
Key fobs (2mm veg tan) - £15
- Available in matching Black, Dark Brown or Saddle tan

Comment or Message me with any queries!
- Belts/Collars can be either stitched or screwed but will come screwed as standard
- Thread colours: Black, Brown or contrasting White
- Screws/Buckles can be in either Brass or Nickel unless stated otherwise
- Prices include 2nd class delivery

Belt measuring tips
- Using an old belt, measure from the inside of the buckle to the most used belt hole
- Go by your waist/jeans size and add 2”
(All belts come with 7 holes as standard, each 1” apart – the ordered size will be measured from the middle hole)

Pet Collar measuring tips
- Just like a belt; measure from the inside of the buckle to the most used hole
- Using a soft tape measure the circumference of your pets neck, a good size is a snug fit with room for 2 fingers underneath
(All pet collars come with 5 holes as standard, each 1” apart – the ordered size will be measured from the middle hole)

I'll be adding some more product pics this next week (belts and collars) so keep an eye out!

If you'd like to order just send me a message with the width, colour and size of the product you want and we an confirm from there.

I also have some stock belts and key fobs currently available on ebay;

Woo! I finally got Insta working with the page!
Here's a collection of bit's and bobs I've been working on recently.

08/05/2021

A couple of belts ready for orders and a couple more ready to be cut to size!

x2 Natural veg belts
x2 Dark brown semi veg belts

And after a bit of trial and error, I'm finally happy with how the key fobs turned out!

Made in 2 variations:
1. Brass Clip Fobs. (In three colours; Black Horween, Natural Veg, Dark Brown Semi Veg)
Approximately 6.5" when fastened.
Designed to be useful, convenient and different, these fobs should have no problem carrying all of your keys!

2. Fish Hook Fobs. (Black Horween)
Approximately 7" when fastened.
Similar design to the clip fobs, except they have a nice chunky brass hook, which is based on a Japanese style key hook.

I felt, as secure as the chicago screws were for the key fobs, switching to using the sam browne screw and keyhole method made them much more versatile - still a secure hold, but with the added ability to quickly hook/unhook them as needed. This means these can be used on belts, bags, jean loops, wrists, etc.

Made a socially distanced delivery yesterday!
Safe to say, this customer was very proud of her new collar 🐾❤️

1" wide 2.2mm thick collar made from Black Horween Chromexcel.

Soft and supple for a comfy collar, while still being robust enough to wear for years to come.
