      I don't see on the site . Hopefully I will find one !!

      Good luck. Regarding the OGL natural tan belt.. this is my IHxSE natural tan belt after 3 years of daily wear and two rounds of mink oil. The natural tan darkens a lot with wear and care so it may be worth it if you can't find a brown tan.

      Very interesting , mink oil does darken leather and your belt looks good. Maybe I should try tan and buy mink oil from red wing store 🙂

          if you dont like natural you can select from any number of colors to dye it to your liking.

            tandy Leather (top 2) and Springfield Leather.  top treated w Obenaufs for last ~4 years and bottom 2 with Bick4.

            if you dont like natural you can select from any number of colors to dye it to your liking.

            Good recommendatikn

            Top and bottom leather look pretty solid. Middle one looks kind a wear out and bent. What is the width ?

                Yeah, it's a pita. I think everyone knows what someone is referring to and if not they're smart enough to look at previous posts.

                    @Mustafa911  I've had the black N&F belt for years.  It has held up quite well. I like the cracks and wear from being so thick.  The black dye doesn't go all the way through so there is a lot of brown showing.

                    The leather is thick, but doesn't feel as dense as IH, Tender or FH.  It's a good belt, but not the work of art like the others.  It's a steal at the price though.

                        IH SE belt same as OGL? I meant in quality, thickness and width?
                        Is it make by same company ?

                          No. The IHxSE belt is/was the same as the IHB-01 just in vegtan. The OGL belt is a different leather, slightly thinner and not quite as wide, with a very different two-pronged buckle.

                          I have the black OGL belt and it isn't as heavy weight as the IH belts, but it very tidy, and well made.

                                I have the brown one to wear with my non-indigo jeans and it is very nice. The leather is only slightly thinner than the IHB-01 and the hardware and design are exactly the same.

                                    Yes I have , Tan isn't available in XL
                                    5-6mm thick will be nice.

                                    Only option left is sumurai curved belt$250. The belt seems more thick and wide but not seen any reviews.

                                      I think @Max Power used to have one of those, you could ask him.

                                        Indeed, I had the curved belt and still have the Samurai Garrison belt. Both are fantastic and while they're thick still comfortable to wear. The buckle of the curved belt ended up too heavy and thick for my liking, so I stuck with the garrison for 3 years or maybe more. They're not cheap, but worth the money. I think howevere that the  Flat Head belts are even a touch nicer.
                                        Here's some pictures of them in various stages:

                                            Just received my Tender Co. type 208 belt today, really good stuff.
                                            My first item from Tender Co., surely won't be my last.
