Buying guide

How to choose heritage collection

A belt is the cheapest place a brand can cut a corner and the fastest place you notice. Six things separate a strap you replace annually from one you hand down.

Read the full guide
  1. 01

    Choosing a width

    1.25 inches for dress trousers and suits, 1.5 inches for jeans, chinos and work wear. Match the strap width to the belt loops, not to the buckle you like.

  2. 02

    Dress versus casual

    Dress belts are smooth, thin and finished with a polished frame buckle. Casual belts are thicker, pull-up or waxed, and take antique brass hardware that hides scuffs.

  3. 03

    Leather type

    Vegetable-tanned bend for formal straps that hold a crisp edge; crazy horse or waxed full grain for casual straps that should mark and heal.

    Full grain vs top grain
  4. 04

    Getting the size right

    Order two inches above your trouser waist, never your jeans label. That centres the prong in the middle of five holes and leaves room in both directions.

    How to measure belt size
  5. 05

    Buckle styles and hardware

    Solid brass and stainless outlast plated zinc, which pits within a year. Screws beat rivets: they let you swap a buckle instead of retiring the strap.

  6. 06

    Quality indicators

    One continuous piece of leather, a burnished edge with no paint crust, tight even stitching at the fold, and a flesh side that is suede-soft rather than fuzzy and glued.

  7. 07

    Common mistakes

    Buying by jeans size, choosing bonded 'genuine leather', over-conditioning a new strap, and rolling a belt tightly for storage — all shorten its life.

Oil Tanned Leather

Supple — weather resistant

Oil Tanned Leather

Hot-stuffed with oils for a supple, weather-resistant hand that slouches in quickly and resists water better than most finishes.

Suede

Napped — light and soft

Suede

The napped underside of the hide brushed to a fine, even pile. Light and soft; protect it and keep it away from standing water.

Aftercare

Care for heritage collection

Leather does not need much — it needs the right thing, at the right interval. Everything we make is serviceable rather than disposable.

Read the care guide
  • Cleaning

    Dry brush weekly, damp cloth monthly. Never saddle soap a waxed finish.

    Read
  • Conditioning

    A pea of neatsfoot or lanolin cream every three to six months, worked warm.

    Read
  • Storage

    Hang or lay flat, away from direct sun and radiators. Cotton bag, never plastic.

    Read
  • Waterproofing

    Wax-based dubbin on rugged grains; leave vegetable-tanned pieces to breathe.

    Read
  • Repair

    Stitching, hardware and soles are all serviceable — send it back, don't replace it.

Fit

Sizing heritage collection

  1. 01

    Measure the belt you wear

    From the fold at the buckle to the hole you use. That number is your belt size.

  2. 02

    Or size up from trousers

    Add two inches to your trouser waist — a 34 waist takes a 36 belt.

  3. 03

    Between sizes

    Order the smaller size. Every strap is punched with five holes at one-inch spacing.

Style guide

How to wear it

  • Belts with shoes

    Match tone before texture: cognac belt to cognac oxford, black to black. Suede footwear pairs with a matte, unpolished strap.

  • Belts with wallets

    Buy the belt and wallet in the same tannage so both patina at the same rate rather than drifting apart in year two.

  • Formal outfits

    1.25 in smooth strap, polished frame buckle, no visible stitching. The belt should disappear under a buttoned jacket.

  • Business outfits

    1.25–1.375 in with a brushed buckle reads softer under a sport coat and still holds a tucked shirt cleanly.

  • Travel style

    A 1.5 in waxed strap survives being rolled into a carry-on and hides the scuffs a trip guarantees.
