Barnes & Moore - Heavyweight Belt - Tan

£130.00

Idle Torque is very proud to be a stockist of Barnes & Moore belts. All of their belts are handmade in Birmingham using English veg tan leather and hand cast brass hardware.

Super heavyweight belt, made for heavyweight denim, and for those who prefer a wider belt. The 48mm width is designed to fit most belt loops on most premium denim. Handmade from 5mm thick veg tanned harness leather.

* This Belt comes with an antique nickle buckle. If you would like a polished brass buckle please contact us and we will create a custom order.

Each piece of leather takes 3-4 months to produce, using traditional tanning methods that date back centuries. Only the premium ‘butt’ of the hide is used for its strength, and also to prevent the belts from stretching

The edges are bevelled and hand ‘burnished’ using traditional wooden tools which seals the fibres of the leather, not only for aesthetics, but to help prevent the edges from absorbing moisture.

Every solid brass buckle is handmade using traditional ‘sandcast’ casting methods. The guys that make these buckles have been casting brass since 1837, so they’re pretty good at it. They also hold the Royal warrant as suppliers to the household of the King of England.

Every belt comes complete with a 5ml bottle of neatsfoot oil used to condition the leather.

Shipped in a recycled card presentation box.

Sizing Guide

Please order your normal waist size. For example if you wear a 32″ (81cm) jean or trouser, order a size 32″ (81cm) belt.

To compare our sizing to an existing belt you own, lay your existing belt flat and measure from the leather fold at the buckle end (as shown in our diagram below) to the hole you normally wear it on.

Compare this size to Dimension A (distance to 3^rd hole) in our belt sizes and find the belt size that corresponds with this.

For example:

If you measure 32.5’’ to the hole you most wear it on, then a size 30’’ belt would be the best fit for you.

Our belts are designed to be worn on the third hole, with adjustment either way. Each belt hole is 1’’apart.
