Evolution of Leather - Belts Wallets Patches

[Mizmazzle]

@Anesthetist that says a lot, dude! All that constant rubbing and friction taking it in and out of pockets etc is like a constant polishing act it seems.

I really like how you created that deep pocket with a side wall. I’d like to learn how to do that. I’m just starting my leather craft hobby.

@Mizmazzle someone w a lot more experience like @seawolf could give you way better advice but I used a form to make pattern. I think I glued together a fat stack of spent gift cards

[Mizmazzle]

@Anesthetist yeah, that Seawolf character knows a thing or two about leather

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Yeah, what Matt described is perfect. You can also use a process called "wet molding" that can yield some crazy results.

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf looks like I have something cool to put on the radar to learn. Looking forward to playing with that.

If anyone isn’t following him, give “Ben wears heritage” a follow on Instagram. He has just received one of my Natural/Russet Oak Bark Tanned Lifetime belts and will be documenting the patina journey!

Can’t remember how long I’ve had this belt but you can see it has a lot of IH indigo on it now compared to when it was made. Got it from Nobleman’s Apothecary
