Belts

I suspect you're right Anesthetist.
Which jeans did you get? I got a pair of the unborn (raw) Tender 130s from Tenue de Nimes that have stealth stitching. The only trouble is that they shrank a lot more than I expected, and now I need to get my waist down to a 34 or 35 to fit into them.
We need to revive the Tender thread…
Not to get off topic but I have the 129 slim cut which truthfully isn't very slim. It could be that they are a tad big on me, but I got them on the cheap so I don't mind it all that much. The belt is a beast though, I need to get more pics up.

I would not hesitate to recommend Terry's work.
I am really impressed with the quality of the belt strap. I was a bit concerned that I would not be able to find some one capable of doing the buckle justice and replicating the original strap.
The buckle holes were interesting, Terry did not have the required punch but used two circular punches to replicate the original elongated shape of the IH strap buckle holes. He practiced on some old off cuts off leather to make sure the shape could be duplicated easily.
Thanks again to you guys on the forum for alerting me to Terry's work, before the recommendation through the forum I was blissfully unaware that Terry was the man for this kind of job.

I recently got a belt from Scott Willis (Don't Mourn Organize). I couldn't believe how thick it is.

Siccc. I've been talking to him about getting two belts.
How long did it take you to get yours?

The final decision for the belt was made a few days before Thanksgiving. It was ready on Monday and showed up on Wednesday.
Also, just to be specific, the belt is about a 1/4" thick. Scott told me it's doubled up, natural veg-tanned horsehide from Horween. It's big and awesome.

width= 1.5"
color= Sedgwick black
buckle= brass garrison 2-pronged "satin" finish
