Description
Belt – Classic in Devon Dark Stain Leather with Black Trims, Made to order
To be made to order, entirely by hand and with great care in the Devon workshop of a National Award winning craftsman. With this native Devon leather you can begin the creation of your own heart warming story of a favourite belt that could be used by several members, even generations of the same family, and yet more stories of a belt that carries the scuffs, dents and marks of everyday life as it accompanies the wearer through college, relationships, family, different jobs etc.
Here at TBM we get it. A belt isn’t just a product, it’s part of the family.
Leather
Dark Stain coloured oak bark tanned English leather produced by J&FJ Baker & Co Ltd. Bought by the Baker family in the year 1862 and based in Colyton, Devon, this is Britain’s last remaining oak bark tannery, remaining a family business to this day.
Buckle
1.5 inch wide (33mm) ‘West End Roller’ style in stainless steel. These buckles are super strong and resistant to rust
Keepers
One sewn in keeper just after the buckle and one loose, free moving keeper to help hold down the other end of the strap. The loose keeper is supplied as standard so that it’s available for use if required
Edges
Hand polished leather edges with Black finish to help reduce moisture absorption along the edges, and to keep the look of the cut leather strap nice and uniform
Thread
Black coloured Tiger thread has been used to hand sew both the buckle and the single fixed, wide keeper into place, and to sew the matching loose keeper ends together. Stitches are spaced at 8 to the inch
Belt size
Sizing: As a general rule of thumb, adding a couple of inches (approx 5cm) to your trouser size should give you your belt size. Please be aware that this doesn’t work for everyone, however, it is usually a very good starting point
Clothing size is based on the above compared to the online M&S sizing chart
You could also measure the wearer’s current belt: from where the leather turns over the buckle to the hole they are currently using
Please select your required size from the menu, check out our size guide page or get in touch for further help.
