A bit rich for my blood, but I bet you that thing evos like a champ.

[davito]

Its the closest you probably get next to a vintage HTC, yeah that leather will come along great. I like the 50's style and love this belt. I know there are some leather artists outthere like VEB or others in that style too doing great stuff but i wanted to have the FH

A couple of new VEB belts…

Ever carefully packed:

A Buco brown with amber reflectors, and a studded black belt with skulls.

Studs with military chinos?  I don't see why not.

[natehate]

that brown is sick!

[mclaincausey]

Thanks–and agreed!  Love the color, and it really goes well with my Road Champs...  He can make black or brown, brass or steel studs and buckle, amber or red reflectors.

new belt thats like a reason to buy more jeans right?

[mclaincausey]

anxiously awaiting the RAWs!

[natehate]

hahaha are you like me and set a belt to each pair of jeans?
or am i still alone in that ocd weirdness of mine?

[seawolf]

You're not alone Nate. I realized my new pair of 6634's were sans belt yesterday, so I ran downstairs to my workbench and banged out a quick belt to satisfy my own OCD.

[mclaincausey]

I don't pair em to jeans so much as boots/shoes

[natehate]

hhaha thank god seawolf i'm not alone
you only wear one pair of shoes with a pair of jeans?
thats next level ocd

[seawolf]

I have boots that I prefer to wear with certain jeans, but nothing written in stone.

[tatmantall]

Ditto the matching belts with boots/shoes

[mclaincausey]

No, I pair belts and shoes; jeans are on their own island, though I do tend to wear boots with fuller cuts and boots or shoes with slimmer ones

@mclaincausey:

Exactly.

how are the quality of those veb belts, will those studs drops easily?
how does the 1 3/4" converts to mm for the width?

[mclaincausey]

Quality is really good IMO. The studs seem solid. I have only worn em a couple of times so we will see long term. Bottom line VEB is a good egg and a good artisan, pleased to pay the man
