The Forlorne Belt — Veg-Tan / Latigo & Solid Brass
The ultimate belt, really. This versatile design looks great anywhere— in the shop, on the trail, or out on the town. 9/10 oz upper-mid weight leather was chosen to hit the sweet spot in the balance of comfort and strength.
The leather options:
The natural veg-tanned belt leather comes from American tannery Hermann Oak . This leather is beautiful in its natural appearance, and patinas wonderfully over time, turning a rich and dark honey-tan color through use. It also softens considerably over time. A classy, and time-tested material used widely in the leather good industry for everything from saddles, to purses, belts, and holsters.
The black latigo is a dual-tanned leather ( chrome tan with veg-tan second cycle) that comes from Horween Leather Co of Chicago. Latigo is superior in its weather resistance due to the dual-tan process, infusing the leather with wax and oil to resist the elements. Latigo is more dense and rigid than veg-tan leather, and won't soften as much over time. This leather is especially great for use in the field —carrying tools on the waist and getting caught in the elements.
Construction:
- Made from full-grain, 9/10 ounce leather from American tanneries.
- Solid brass buckle & keeper, as well as removable Chicago screw hardware for easy buckle changes.
- 1 1/2” tall belt with a stepped-in tongue at 1 1/4”, allowing for a the smaller buckle to be used on larger belt stock— let’s keep clutter away from that prime appendix real estate.
This belt is cut, burnished, and assembled by hand, and the leather is finished with Redroot brand natural leather conditioner (beeswax & neatsfoot base).
