The Missouri Belt

The "Missouri Belt"

October 24, 2021

Looking for the absolute best strap of leather for your belt? A leather belt that will last 100+ years? Introducing the "Missouri Belt"!

This leather starts off in Saint Louis, MO at the Hermann Oak tannery (established 1881). Hermann Oak prepares the raw cowhide using a vegetable tanning process and drum dyes the hides a deep black color.

Next stage of preparation happens down in Springfield Missouri at the Springfield Leather Company. They are the largest leather distributor in the region. SLC will cut and distribute sides of this leather variety.

Final strap cutting, waxing, water treatment, and assembly takes place back in Saint Louis, Missouri at Noble Buffalo. All belt straps at cut and prepared upon-order.

If you like USA Made products, this is the one for you!

Nicest belt I’ve ever owned!

The quality of this belt really surpassed my expectations. You can never be sure exactly what you’ll get online based on photos, but this was even BETTER than what I expected. Very thick yet soft high quality leather. Perfect color. Not too light or dark. I went with the 1.25”, which can be worn with literally anything. And the antique brass buckle also gives it a more subtle look that can even go with dress pants. I used method 1 for measurement, so the fit is perfect. Outstanding work. I’ve never even seen this kind of quality in a high end store. Was just at a Tecovas shop here in Texas and looked at their “high end” belts. No comparison!
