I have been working on my vegetable tanned leather equine belts and keychains. One aspect of the project I've worked to perfect the branding to show the type of leather I use.
I have noticed that many large scale belt making companies are unwilling to tell you the type or quality of leather that they use, instead stamping "genuine leather" on the belts. "Genuine leather" is an industry term for the lowest quality of leather. More is spent to market these cheap belts than on the belt themselves.
I handmake each of my belts using 10-11 ounce thick full grain vegetable tanned Equine leather. Each belt is dyed by hand, (rather than drum dyed or spray painted), in order to accentuate the unique patterns naturally found in full grain leather.
I use stainless steel hardware, or solid brass if preferred, to ensure that your belt will last.
If interested, in a custom made belt that is specifically designed for you or your loved one, or one of my bespoke keychains, I invite you to to click on my link below.
