What do use to hold your leather up?

This is my personal favorite belt buckle. If you have one you frequent please share. I’ve been using the same belt for 20 years. I have only inherited this nice buckle to go along with the belt recently in the past few years.

I found this beside a natural spring where I stripped naked to cool down. I am sure the ranger had the same idea and forgot his belt:

The belt itself is pretty cool too. Embossed bears and beavers and deer and things.

I’m not picky about buckles, I just like a solid brass one not too big, good smooth edges. I’m real picky about the leather, and the best belts I’ve found for the money come from this seller on Etsy who uses real Hermann Oak harness leathers:

PS: the sale clearance belts are stupidly cheap and the flaws are always minimal, they’re just a perfectionist

PPS: I don’t know why that says Etsy Czech Republic, they’re in Maryland or Delaware, something like that

Love your belt buckle choice, it looks really cool! It’s awesome that you’ve had the same belt for 20 years – must be quite the trusty companion! I recently got into leatherworking and have been experimenting with different buckles for my belts. It’s so much fun to personalize them. Thanks for sharing your favorite, it’s inspiring!

Hey, your buckle is really something! Mine actually has a personal engraving on it, and it’s a super special gift from a loved one. Although I haven’t had it for very long, it’s already become a cherished keepsake. However, when it comes to belts, I’m all about high-quality leather, and recently, I came across this fantastic article at What Is Vegetable Tanned Leather & How Is It Made? – Von Baer. It’s packed with some super useful insights on leather, which I’ll definitely keep in mind for my future leather product choices.
