Our essential handmade vachetta leather men's belt is crystal clear, undyed and perfect for any wardrobe. This is our version of the Louis Vuitton natural handbag look in a premium leather belt.
New for 2021, the CLASSIC VACHETTA leather belt is a request addition to our collection. Available in stainless steel and solid brass buckle choices, this undyed, oak tanned beauty adds natural pop to any wardrobe and is sure to turn heads wherever you go.
This natural bridle leather's tannage is quite different than other natural belts that you see on the market. Essentially the hides undergo a second drumming or “hot stuffing” process. Giant wooden drums are heated and rotated which centrifugally pushes tallow and natural oils deep into the leather’s core. Once they are properly cooled the conditioners get sealed in. Most leather manufacturers will not pay the added money for this expensive process because the benefit is not on the sales end. This was an easy addition for us because we were already there with premium vegetable tannages.The Benefit is to the customer or owner of the belt in the form of in flexibility, comfort and long term look & wear. The natural Vachetta look recently is trending up due to the popularity of the Louis Vuitton handbags that made it famous. Most companies that emulate this look use economy skirting, ours is true natural bridle so it will not dry and crack. The idea behind such a blonde leather is for sunlight and natural markings through age to make the eventual "character" of the leather. Feel comfortable knowing that we used premium harness leather for this unique leather belt. The edge finishing process is a labor intensive "burnishing" of 100% pure Arizona beeswax. It is hand applied with friction for a hard durable edge. We have stayed true to the strength and durability of premium saddle leather even as American native steer prices have skyrocketed. Rest assured that in your lifetime you will never break a hole. In two generations of belt making, we have never seen this happen.
The CLASSIC VACHETTA is new addition to our men's leather belt collection. All of our belts are handmade from high quality leather in the USA.

Wearing natural leather can have the ability of connecting us to our environment in ways we may not understand. For man, the process of tanning leather with roots and bark from trees goes back to the cave. Thousands of years of evolution physically join man and leather to nature and survival.
Owning a naturally tanned leather belt is both a privilege and a luxury. After 2 years, condition your leather belt with 2 light coats of 100% pure lanolin, Neatsfoot oil or any other fossil fuel free, high quality conditioner. If ever dirty, clean only with saddle soap. Remember, when it's dry reapply.

I started getting into high quality leather goods a few years ago, but stick mostly with smaller items due to price (wallets, watch straps, ect). After my h deliberation, I finally pulled the trigger on this belt. It is beautiful, absolutely stunning. Sometimes I don't even wear it - I just hold it and admire it! The quality and craftsmanship are undeniable. Giving this belt and company 10/10 stars!
Just bought three belts from Manny and Brenda, and they’re fantastic! Having spent too much money on cheap, low-quality belts over the years, I can see that these are of the quality that I will have for life. In the process of ordering a 4th belt as we speak. Highly recommended!
The Vachetta belt is a beautiful color
