IHB-05 - Heavy Nubuck Belt with Brass Hardware

[rocket]

that's brilliant @motojobobo…

[Giles]

I tried.  Won't work for me because of pimpage…..

[rocket]

nah, you need the extra space…

[motojobobo]

Giles,
You can still do it (regardless of pimpage), but you'll need to loosen both studs to let the loop slide out of the short end of the belt. A bit more work.

Sorry, you are right. My solution won't help your case.

Yep, pimped end won't go under the reduced hight keeeper

I moved the keeper closer to the buckle, looks and functions better I reckon.

This is my 4 year old black nubuck which looks rather brownish next to my superblack 888S denim. I need to think about a getting a “blacker” black belt, but I don’t like them shiny, much prefer them matte.

The covid 19 lockdown has surprisingly reduced my waistline and I’m down to the belt’s last hole. Not sure I want to shorten it just yet; as I expect I won’t stay for long at this waist size!

Another pic of my “black” nubuck, paired with an indigo 633 this time.

I’m looking for a local metalworker to try to reduce the height on the keeper. As my belt gets older it has begun slipping back from the keeper. I’ll post pics once I get this modifiction done to report on results.

9 year old nubuck here. Easily my most used IH item over the years.
