Belts, Belts, and More Belts

Some Belts

From top to bottom are a 1¾" belt, a 1" belt, 7-, 5-, and 3-strand trick braid samples.

All our belts are made from weather-resistant harness or latigo leather, ranging in length from 7 to 9 feet. We try to keep all belt styles in stock in Black, Havana (dark brown), London Tan (gold), and Chestnut (rust). In addition, we sometimes have belts available in Russet (pale tan) harness leather.

Our most popular belts are 1" ($12.50) and 1¾" ($25) wide, plain leather with either a Nickel- or Brass-plated ring at one end. These belts are tied to fasten. (Yes, we know they are not "period", but they are a staple of the costuming world, and Lon has a hard time saying "no" to customers)

If you're for something fancier (and more authentic, in look if not material!), we have a variety of hardware to enhance your belt. First, we have engraved, polished stainless steel (no tarnishing!) hardware. For for the 1¾" wide belts we have circular rings or square buckles. For the 1" belts we have similar D-Rings and buckles. Next, we have 2-inch and 3-inch wide circular polished brass buckles for belts. Finally, we have shield-shaped pointed tips for the 1¾" belts, and diamond-shaped tips for the 1" belts. Belt tips are currently available in brass or chrome plating. Chrome belt tips will be replaced with stainless steel as we sell out of the chrome.

A 1¾" belt with fancy stainless steel ring is $32.50, a 1¾" belt with a stainless steel buckle is $30.00. A 1" belt with either a buckle or fancy D-Ring in stainless steel is $15.00. Belts with 2" brass buckles are $30, and belts with the 3" buckles are $35. Brass, chrome, and stainless steel belt tips are $6 for the 1¾" shields, and $4.25 for the 1" diamonds.

Belts can be braided with a trick braid of three, five, or seven strands for an additional $5.

We also make hand-woven strips for either belts or trims see our woven products page.
