not easy to open

That’s one reason I love them @Kasi.

Never had to retighten them in ten years.
Bought this belt from @Seul a decade ago.

It’s the one and only belt I use.
There was no need for something else, after this IHB-01 turned up.

I want it chopping IH crew did it for me at the party.

The best belt of all time is IHB-02 Garrison Leather Belt made 12 years and still have it

I still have the OG plate buckle I bought from that Southeast Asian fisherman that used to be on this forum... His name will probably pop upin my tired brain soon... (And it did: mankarat!)
Anyhow... Thàt is the best belt ever made if you ask me

Oh here's a pic. You'd be surprised how hard it is to take a good picture blindfolded...

My very first Iron Heart piece, bought from Self Edge back in 2008 during my initial raw denim phase, the Self Edge Exclusive IH Super Tan Belt.

I spent some time trying to work out what it actually was, clearly related to the current IHB-10 belt, but mine isn’t even stamped with the Iron Heart logo like the current belts are. Eventually I traced it back through the topics and I’m pretty sure it’s this IHB-01, the same as @Giles belt, and just about as old!

Mine hasn’t had quite the wear of Giles’ belt, and is in need of some TLC, but has had pretty regular wear for the past 16 years, and has been my daily belt since finding my way back to raw denim and Iron Heart. And it has plenty of life in it still. I just need to order some quality oil for it asap!
