Handcrafted Leather Belt in 3 Colors

We teamed up with The British Belt Company to develop the ideal dress belt: one that’s handsome and understated, affordable and well-made. The British Belt Company has been producing leather goods since 1946, using centuries-old leather-working techniques to bring out the most in each item. Its products have been featured on the pages of GQ, Esquire, Men’s Health, and Drapers, as well as countless blogs and forum reviews. To develop this custom belt, we brought in members of our Men’s Style Community to help identify the most desirable materials, manufacturing processes, and price point. The result is a top-of-the-line belt to finish off any outfit, available only on Massdrop.

Full-Grain Calfskin, Solid Brass Buckle

The belt is made of full-grain calfskin sourced from French tanneries and lined on the back side with soft, luxurious nubuck. Once the hides have been tanned and prepared for treatment at the tannery, they’re passed on to The British Belt Company for dyeing and finishing. The leather is burnished by hand to a polished luster, one belt at a time: a time-consuming process that requires a wool wheel and the know-how of a skilled leathersmith. The buckle is made in Italy of solid brass, nickel plated for color, and—in keeping with The British Belt Company’s tradition of craftsmanship—stitched in, rather than glued, snapped, or screwed. Plus, the company coats all its nickel finishes in a clear lacquer to accommodate those with nickel allergies. All this makes for a quality product that’s built to last decades.

70 Years of Leather Production

When it came to leather sourcing, we approached this project with two conditions. First, it had to be calfskin, because this is naturally more supple and resistant to wear. And second, it had to come from France, because cattle farmers working with French tanneries don’t use barbed-wire fencing, which can scratch and otherwise mark the hides. This is a big part of the reason so many luxury brands, including Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Yves Saint Laurent, and Tiffany & Co., source their calfskin from France. Once the hides are selected, every one is carefully inspected until only the best remain, with rejection rates often upwards of 30 percent. Considering these exacting standards, it should come as no surprise that The British Belt Company is so highly regarded, even making private-label belts for some of the most storied brands out of Northampton, England: a major center of shoemaking and other leather industries.

Sizing Information

Belt measurements are taken from the middle hole of the belt to where the leather meets the buckle. For best results, measure a belt that fits well and buy that size. Most people buy belts 2 inches longer than the tagged waist size on their best-fitting pants.

Lengthwise, not at all. It does "warp", but no more than all my belts.Read More

Does this fit true to size?

You need a size 1–2" above your actual pant size (not vanity sizing like what e.g. Levi’s uses). The only safe method is to measure an existing belt, or measure your pants and add 1–2”.Read More
