Cause + Effect Stealth Belt:
Top dyed black leather with a painted, hand-forged brass buckle. Much lighter than my other belts, but a nice change of pace.
Nice belt @Anesthetist. Why do I always end up coveting your stuff?
I've seen Cause and Effect's wares around, and Lodge Goods have a few on sale at present. I particularly like the painted designs.

Any recommendations for places to get a natural leather belt in the U.K. / Europe. Don't want to spend a fortune. Cheers
Don't feel you need to get sucked into paying a lot for a belt, mate. One of my best friends is a leather worker in the film industry and he could make some of the belts I see on this thread in about thirty minutes. I've made a few myself and we are constantly staggered at what people will pay for a strip of hide and a buckle that has zero tooling or stitching.

The best natural leather is made of Devon Oak Bark Tanned Leather. Check equus brand

Very beautiful and uniform patina! Thanks for the virgin olive oil tip but I still have like an unopened tub of 500ml sedgwick leatherfeed
What brand is your wallet? Was your lanyard initially natural color too?

Thanks for all the suggestions guys.
My last one was a Corter which are dam good for the money. But it's too big now even with extra holes punched in.

You can learn a lot from indigoshrimp blog regarding veg tanned leather belt. He recommends oak bark tanned leather and saddle/skirting leather for the hardcore people haha

Great leather evolution on this thread. It's fun to see.
Vermilyea Pelle x Blue Owl Wenatchee belt in rough out natural horsehide:

Thanks, @Dion
The black was tempting; looking really good.
Super impressed by how thin, yet still very sturdy the horsehide is.
And I second the high recommendation of Dustin's work.The matching RO wallets look damn good too.

Picked up a new belt. I saw the SDA belts that @kiya posted which made me look to see if the Flat Head belt was in stock. This thing is a beast. Here are my other favorites. Tender and the butter soft, but bulletproof IH.

I've wanted that Flathead belt for years but I want the black version which never seems to be in stock when I have the cash. Are you happy with it? Part of me wants to hold out in case Haraki ever makes the IH plate buckle belt again but that may never happen..

I think that's the TFH here: http://www.selfedge.com/belts?product_id=220
(Notice how the SDA belt has 2 rivets.)
