IHB-11-BLK -Heavy Duty "Tochigi" Leather Belt with Brass Garrison Buckle - Black

[mclaincausey]

Chicago screw construction (why is there any other way?)

Speaking of "other ways," another term for the Chicago screw is "sex bolt."

Don't get me wrong, I love Chicago, but I don't understand why "sex bolt" isn't the "only way" to refer to them.

Then again, the ole "Chicago screw" does sound like an Urban Dictionary entry.

and Chicago fittings on air lines.

any idea when these will be back in?

[AdamJ]

@scarfmace Should be this week, possibly slide in to next

[scarfmace]

Seems like these did not get a restock? any update?

[Alex]

No definitive one. A lot failed our IHUK QC - we are working to get a resolution

[AdamC]

RESTOCK

[DeeDee85]

@AdamC any chance these are getting re-stocked at some point? Bought the natural and it’s so good I now need the black

[DeeDee85]

Also, anyone with the nickel plated buckle version of this know if the nickel plating wears off to eventually reveal the brass underneath?

[Kasi]

None of mine have

[DeeDee85]

@Kasi thanks mate

[yannis]

Mine has started to reveal the brass but only the top side of the buckle. The bottom side is still as original

[DeeDee85]

@yannis thanks for the info! Any chance of a pic? I bet that looks pretty cool

[yannis]

[yannis]

It will be nice if the whole thing goes to brass. Looks like 2 tone now

[DeeDee85]

@yannis I think it looks good as is! I’m sure the rest will work it’s way off in time too.. thank you for taking the time to take a pic

[AdamC]

@DeeDee85 they will be but no set timeframe yet. What size are you looking for and I will see what I can do

[DeeDee85]

@AdamC would ideally like the black garrison version in an XL but with a brass buckle? Rivet & Hide have the nickel plated one in stock so I’m contemplating that but would prefer the brass. Thank you!

[AdamC]

@DeeDee85 sorry man, I could do a brown. Or we do have a spare brass buckle and loop of leather so you could grab the belt from RANDH and then we could sort out a price for the buckle for you. DM me if this sounds like a good option

[hjl360]

With the recent belt restocks are these to be expected any time soon also?
