Belt Process

I found it very satisfying to watch how the belt process went from start to the final finished products. My partner's family made the whole belt production process looks very simple. It's all made possible by drawing on their skills, experience and craftsmanship built up over hundred years, in leathers and belt making. There is a lot of love and attention that is put into the production of each and every one of our fashion belts.

All fashion belts from Handcrafted Belts and Buckles are unique and take several stages to complete. European fashion fairs are attended to help influence and guide us with belt colors, styles and materials. Materials and belt buckles are selected for their superior quality and purchased from many of the finest suppliers.

There are usually two separate parts to a quality fashion belt process you will find on Handcrafted Belts and Buckles site. The first section is the supporting upper crust that is cut from a chunky piece of supreme leather, before having their edges beveled. Then the whole beauty of the belt's top layer is cut out to size with a sharp knife and hand trimmed with a pair of scissors.

Each piece is then generously hand painted with glue, left to dry for a while and then carefully fused together. After the two prepared parts have become one, the end of the belt is then cut to a rounded or squared finishing shape. Holes for fastening the buckle are punched in to place and the edges sanded, so the two parts are virtually indistinct, then painted with a complimenting color.

The belt process is now at the stage where the beautiful piece is stitched around its special, pre-prepared beveled edges, giving a smooth, neat finishing touch, and providing extra durability. The strong thread used, is picked to match the belt's color or chosen selectively to contrast the belt’s color.

At this stage of the creation process, the end is near and the chosen belt buckle can be attached. A desirable piece of art is complete and ready for sale at Handcrafted Belts and Buckles.com.

When the belts are complete, they are then placed in their protection pouch and packed carefully, before being dispatched by courier, from Handcrafted Belts and Buckles office.

As our craftsmen are constantly coming up with new belts and belt buckle designs. Many of the products currently for sale on our website right have established the bench mark of quality. I would encourage you to browse through our belt selection to create your belt of choice to go along with your fashionable buckle.
