      Why change a buckle? There is a famous belt-maker in Germany, going also to Japan 🙂

          Yee-haw…

          I change my buckle on my western tooled belts quite frequently, though less so on some others. Either way, Chicago screws have never been an issue for me. There's not a lot of tension placed on them and no reason for them to give out.

          Think it, be it.

                  What, with a pice of leather and a brass drain cover?

                  It's lovely, but my, it must be MASSIVE…

                    yes, something like that.  😉
                    And no, it's not so big, is… wearable...

                      I was gonna pull the trigger on the V4.1 but don't quite like the look and feel of 1.75" wide belts on myself.

                        Im looking for a belt to match the Red Wing 9013 (Chestnut Featherstone) that is similar to the IHB-02.  Any ideas?

                          I'd look at an Equus Leather belt in either London Tan (top) or Hazel (bottom).

                          I'd be inclined to go with London Tan in the Bakers of Colyton leather, as that is really lovely.

                          Rivet and Hide offer a single and a double prong buckle in the same Bakers leather, and they are lovely belts.

                            Picked up this belt & belt loop from http://wolfhillbrand.com recently, starting to break in nicely.

                              Hey guys,

                              Recently picked up some cordovan colored boots (so like dark wine). I'd like a belt that matches, at least somewhat closely, because in the future I'll probably have more boots and shoes along the lines of this color.

                              Does anyone have any recommendations?

                              Seems IHB-01 comes in wine but is out of stock everywhere.

                              Thanks

                                Equus Leather make fantastic belts. I've bought a couple for my father.

                                They offer a burgundy, which is said to be a good match for Colour #8 Cordovan.

                                They've got a couple of very expensive special editions, including the Rentetsu, which has a buckle forged from an antique nail by a Japanese blacksmith.

                                  I can make you a cordovan (Horween Color #8 ) colored belt. Shoot me a PM if you're interested and we can get started.

                                    Belt that I am currently wearing is by German brand Fein Schmuck (they have a few other really cool buckle options as well).  I was able to get one shipped over to Seattle through Peter Fields Berlin.

                                    It's still pretty new but I think it will wear in really nice.

                                          "Andrews Leather" – superb workmanship! That's where I purchased my off duty belt/holster rig made from elephant trunk leather and cowhide. I was blown away by its level of build quality.
                                          I like this one a lot too… It's made by an Italian co. -- gotta dig up the name

                                            The "Beltman" put's out topnotch belts  too. I got a chance to visit his workshop the last time I was in NC. He's a remarkable man.
