        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.

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

                Ditto the matching belts with boots/shoes

                  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

                    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?

                        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

                          Just ordered a buco HH in a size 30 and hoping I purchased the right size…. A 32 is 33.5 on the middle hole and after stretching would put me on almost the last hole similar to my samurai belts which are much thicker... A 30 is almost 32 at the middle hole and figure will stretch to we're its just right at middle im after a bit of wear.... Ok, I'm done rambling

                            Thinking of picking this up as I desperately need a brown. Currently have a natural and a black.

                            A little meh on the pre-roughed out buckle but it's not a biggie.

                            Or do you guys think along the lines of something else?

                            **Fuck… should have posted in the existing belt thread. Mods feel free to move/apologies.

                                @SilverKing if you're after alternatives then here are a couple.

                                Tender do three in brown, the Type 201 (slider), Type 204 (keeper buckle), and Type 206 (whole buckle).

                                This is the 206.

                                Tender often offer one-offs through the Trestle Shop, but there are only black and brown ones there.

                                The other people to consider are Equus Leather, who make really lovely belts. If you want to spend a bit more, then go for their Wakugi belt, whose buckle was hand forged by a Japanese blacksmith.

                                I'm sure they'd make it up in the Bakers of Colyton Oak Brown leather if you asked nicely.

                                Equus also offer a Rentetsu buckle, which is another hand forged style, but it's out of stock at present.

                                All of the above options will be around $225 plus shipping. The standard Equus belts are cheaper, somewhere between $120 and $135 for the Bakers of Colyton models.

                                  Those Tender belts look lovely. But they don't list measurements, only size numbers, which means nothing without details.

                                  Do you know what their sizing system entails?

                                  Thanks

                                    I think that roughly a size 3 is 32", size 4 is 34", and size 5 is 36". @Anesthetist , @summ3rhays and @trail and arrow all have them, and could probably advise on sizing.

                                    Or drop an email to William Kroll via the Tender Stores site…

                                      Everytime I look at belts, I want to bang my head against the table.

                                      I wear a 33, ideally…

                                      Half the people only make 32 or 34 - go figure.

                                      I'll shoot them an email. Maybe they can cook something up.

                                          leather belts stretch,
                                          so you would be fine with 32 i guess.
