I saw the Samurai Curved Belt mentioned on here. That belt is thick steerhide. The thickest and beefiest leather variety I have ever handled in Oak-bark Tanned straps. Hawkmoth, Ewing Dry Goods, a smaller Montana maker called Basilio that I have. Bomber af 14-16oz leather

thanks🙏 been waiting for a video like this.

Good for you on the weight loss journey, man! Appreciate your expertise! Hollows is exactly what I was looking for!

[@jgb0017]

Love my SF collection trousers-great call on those!

[@darrenhall7454]

Great video! Perfect timing because I’m looking to buy some good quality belts at the moment. And great job getting down to a 30”.

[@fistofice]

im starting to make my own belts, which makes this an even better video. exposure to people in a craft is always great!

[@Geronimo00]

VintageWorks in Tokyo make the best belt I've seen in Japan.

[@coyote4936]

I like the diamond stud pattern belt you showed

[@pei8988]

For me i only got one dark brown belt from pigeon tree(not that i dont want more, i need more time to think about it), what catch my heart is his buckle! Man that buckle look awsome!

Nice video Jake. Thanks to you, l did order and worked with Duke Mantee on a couple leather suspenders. Real good decent reasonable leather artisan, highly recommended

[@_JOMOMA]

I had a belt made with Duke as well, he’s amazing to work with!

I love Wild Frontier Goods. Mike and Noriko do amazing work. He’s making an olive Shinki Shell cordovan belt for me.

I’m not sure why I wear expensive belts because I never tuck in my shirts. I could use a bungie cord and nobody would know. My two favorites which have lasted years were made by Tucker at KH Leather. He seems to have fallen off the grid though.

[@Threedog92]

The last beld you mentioned and showed, the Brand is Kreis, right? I wasn‘t sure, because in German it is pronouced very differently😄 it means circle in German.

[@almostvintagestyle]

Haha yes! My apologies for the poor pronunciation. How is it pronounced?

[@arindambasu9850]

My belts are from Popov leathers and Grant Stone. Both are good classic belts with thick cuts of leather , CXL and veg tanned, which should age well. Not too kuch of a decorated belta person myself.

[@deadwhip]

Thank for video! Please if you show same goods (belts, denim fabric and other 'small' details) please put them on a table not cam front of you waiting the focus

[@casuallyworked4698]

So you wear them with the Buckle on the side? How much extra length do you like for the belt to have once you are in the correct hole? I’ve seems some people with short length and others have a lot left over

[@almostvintagestyle]

Actually I don't need any extra length for that. Right now my belts are slightly too big because I lost a little more weight

[@watchin-stoof988]

Who would you recommend for plain belts tho? I get this is your style now but these are much too decorated for the average guy

[@almostvintagestyle]

That's why I also recommended Hollows. Plus, any of these guys make great plain belts

[@olgi2068]

Check Samurai Jeans curved belts. Very robust, thick pre-shaped belt that exists in black, brown and natural color. Super simple but lives from the beefiness and the patina it will get (I own the natural color).

[@pieromancer208]

I got a beautiful struck through black belt from Duke. Just plain black and a great buckle that I got to choose. Also filson’s bridle leather belts are good too! Very simple, robust belts, and much less expensive than duke’s.

[@watchin-stoof988]

@@olgi2068will do! I’ve got samurai denim and t shirts but never considered their belts
