IHB-08 - Heavy Duty "Tochigi" Leather Belt with Nickel Plated Garrison Buckle

[popvulture]

I've got a natural one of these with the brass buckle, but I'm curious — to anyone who's got the nickel version, does it end up dulling out / patina a bit? That's what I'd want... the brass version does so pretty quickly, but I can't tell from the pics what this one does.

@popvulture I’ve worn mine a lot and the nickel hasn’t tarnished at all. I’ll post a pic when I can.

I’ve even toyed with using a Dremel or some sandpaper to speed up the scuffing

Don’t you dare.

My thoughts as well, but to each their own…

[SKT]

Whew…thanks, don’t know what came over me

[Matt]

Patience grasshopper.

@Matt so it does patina then? Send some saucy patina pics baby.

[Matt]

Oh I have no idea. I just feel icky about fake patina.

I was ready to hold an emergency intervention and take away all of your tools and abrasives.

Thank you for seeing the light

@goosehd We could use an entire thrrad…”stop me I’m about to do something stupid”

[goosehd]

@SKT lol…Yes we could.

[Matt]

I wouldn’t have any Crocs if that were a thread and I’d be sad.

…it would be better than asking the magic 8 ball for advice though
