English Harness Belt Special

Here we have a limited run, extra heavy, oak bark tanned natural English harness leather. If you've ever wanted an extra-heavy version of the Rail belt, here's your chance. This stuff clocks in at an impressive 14oz (just over 5mm and just under a quarter inch!), and despite the thickness, it's a supple leather with great moisture content due to the tallow stuffing during the tanning process. There is a longer break-in period with this than most leathers, but it does soften up and darken nicely, just like any good natural veg tan.
 
I've handled a lot of leather over the years and I'm confindent that this is the finest leather of this weight coming out of any tannery on earth. Usually leathers this thick are...utilitarian, to put it kindly.
 
The Rail belt is my flagship belt model for everyday use. It's 40mm wide (just over 1.5") and features a handsome solid brass square garrison style buckle in single or double prong, with three different finishes.
 
The buckle is hand stitched onto the belt strap, the belt edges are waxed and burnished, and finished with teardrop holes to minimize buckle bulge despite the use of heavy leather.
 
Available with four different styles of decorative stitching and/or rivet embellishements. Rivet finish will always match buckle finish.
