Belt – Classic in Devon Dark Tan Leather

by The Belt Makers

Made by hand with great care in the Devon workshop of a National Award winning craftsman. With this 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, etc.

Here at TBM we get it. A belt isn’t just a product, it’s part of the family.

Leather

Dark Tan 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, this is Britain’s last remaining oak bark tannery, remaining a family business to this day.

Buckle

1¼ inch wide (33mm) ‘West End’ style in solid brass. These buckles are super strong and resistant to rust

Keepers

Two sewn in keepers just after the buckle and one loose, free moving keeper to help hold down the other end of the strap if required

Edges

Hand polished leather edges with natural finish, to keep the look of the cut leather strap uniform and to help reduce moisture absorption

Thread

Cigar coloured Tiger thread has been used to hand sew the buckle and fixed keepers into place, and to sew the loose keeper ends together. Stitches are spaced at 8 to the inch

Belt size

31 inches

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.
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 allow up to 3 working days for dispatch of stock items.
