- One day while I was making some collars and my pants kept slipping down a bit, I decided to make myself a belt. Long story short, I really liked it and made a few for some friends, and they really liked them too. So here we are—now I’m making belts as well. I’m using the same 10 oz drum-dyed black latigo leather, and my belt looks as good as the day I made it. I have both solid brass hardware and stainless steel hardware available. So if you decide you want a heavy, tough, black leather belt, these are for you.
