    I bought a full cow hide and I am making my own belts. I dislike the cheap junk that you pay 35-50 bucks for. And the full grain belts range from 50+
    Lower end ones use a cheap buckle that feels..well cheap. I want to use a nice thick buckle. I am trying to find something, might design my own and have them cut out.

    I have a great deal of experience working with leather from my leather tooling hobby years ago and a belt is easy!

    I am just looking to judge how many would be in for a 100% full grain belt for under 60 bucks. I will offer a few colors and a plain raw finish for you to leave or stain on your own. Pricing would be around 55-65 shipped.

    Tell me the size you want from using a tailor's measuring tape. I do not want your pant size as most companies use a vanity sizing. I am thinking a 1-1/2 wide by 7-9oz thick(1oz is 1/64" so 7-9oz is around 3-3.5mm thick). Note* Full grain is what is sounds like, the whole hide. So it could have slight imperfections(IE:scarring) No cuts or damage that would affect belt use. It is full grain, so it is not cut below the outer hide. Makes for a wonderful thick belt that has character.

    Here is the buckle options:
    a third is an antique brass that I am doing myself.


    Below are the actual stain colors I bought.
    Canyon rust

    Mahogany(oxblood)

    Black

    Raw(oil finished)

    I can even add splotching if you desire some texture. I will go over each detail with everyone when they order. Pretty much a Bespoke belt here.

            I love oxblood so much, I cannot believe I forgot that color. I added it to the list.

                    I just placed my order for a full 9oz veg hide and three colors. This is 100% happening! and very soon, the tanner is only 45mins away from me!

                        I will have a belt made the day the shipment gets in. I am leaning at making my own buckles right now. Good plated buckles are around 5-13 bucks each. I do not want plated as it always rubs away and looks cheap. I am going to draw some designs up and have them cut out on a CNC plasma table.

                              I like this. I've been wearing the same Kmart belt I got in 2008.
