Belts – that is. Can anyone recommend where I might get a simple, but good quality leather belt?
I’m fed up with buying supposedly good belts, only to find the leather splitting/fraying where the buckle does up.
A quick Google shows some options, but it strikes me that there are a range of skilled people on here, and maybe someone does quality leatherwork, or knows someone who can. I like the idea of spending money within the community if possible, rather than paying a large corporation for a “brand” name.
Cheers.

I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.
There are some on Etsty, and the last one I got myself was from my local cobblers
They look great, and will be much tougher than leather. Leather should last a while, but it's not the most tough should you, ahem, gain a few pounds and stress it a touch (you know, one hole is a tiny bit tight but the next won't hold your trousers up).
Also, recycling is good.
Not cheap, but good.

I buy mine from Crockett and Jones, who also make a nice belt, and are more reasonable on price.

I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to

Looks like a Telefunken U47.
