      Does IH make their own belts or get them made by some other leather company (like Kawatako?)

          Does the IH belt specifically made for Self Edge have the same specifications (length, width, thickness etc) compared to the IHB-01 except for the colour? : http://www.selfedge.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=319&zenid=fc8219ae89efbf18384860c6fca75dca

          Self Edge mentions that the leather is of a superlative quality compared to the regular IHB-01 belt. Does that mean its a stronger cowhide? Is it vegetable tanned? Or fades better than IHB-01?

          I usually wear size 38 in all USA-made belts. Do you think I should go for size L or XL?

          Thanks a lot.

                go for the same size mate. i wear a Large for all my IHB-01, 02 and 03.  😉 as mentioned by G, the one sold by SelfEdge is just difference in color.  😉

                  Thanks a lot. Is IH coming out with any new belt types and/or colours in the near future?

                      This is the IH item I wear the most. So even when I'm not wearing IH jeans (I do confess to some infidelities with Pure Blue Japan jeans from time to time, but I swear it is not frequent!) I wear an IH belt. Best in the fucking universe.

                        this is my favorite IH belt.

                        will get up images of her recent status soon. the hardware attached to the leather evolves a great deal with wear

                              Would it be possible to get one of these in brown but measuring 34" at the center hole.. I know I'm being picky… But I'd love to pair this belt with my devil ducks

                                      I think I'm going to make the black 01 my next belt.  I'm a 31 in busters and would prob do a 30 for a slimmish 634s fit.  Should I go medium or large?

                                          Glad I asked. I probably would've gone with a medium….thanks jaco!

                                            you wouldn't think a medium could fit him jaco?
                                            I have the IHB-02 in XL and I'm wearing it in the last hole, with having a 34-36" waist!
                                            a L would be my way to go in this one I'd almost say…
