This is a handmade to-order full grain leather belt. The leather is a rich Brown dyed strap of American Horween Chromexcel from their Chicago tannery. The belt itself will be handmade by Noble Buffalo in Saint Louis, MO just for you. This type of leather is soft, comfortable, water resistance, and long lasting. Perfect as a casual belt or a dress belt in the slimmer width. Horween CXL leather freshens up nicely with my in-house made leather balm.

Absolutely a gem to own
Everything about this belt feels right. The quality of the hardware, leather choice, the fit & finish is soooo much better than belts from HANKS BELTS. These are well worth the money. Be an American, buy American made. Our country needs it

Likes:The upfront information on size measurement was especially helpful. The belt is great and just what I had hoped for.
Improvements:Buckles, just a personal preference but for the second belt I would have liked to have been able to select a buckle with two prongs but it's all good.
Very pleased with the craftsmanship!
I was very pleased to receive this belt. I especially liked the upfront information on how to take the measuremen t for ordering - I didn't know. Because of that the belt arrived and was correct in size. The leather is great quality and it is a very clean design. In fact I liked it so much I just ordered a second belt. It is great value and I anticipate they will both last a long time.

My 5th belt from Ben over at Noble Buffalo! Can't go wrong with Horween leather. Looking forward to see how this matches a pair of Nick's boots made with Shackleton Greener Pastures from Horween. Otherwise, unbeatable value for the quality and customization!

Excellent leather belts
I purchased three belts from Noble Buffalo in March of 2025. A Classic English Bridle Leather Belt in Ebony Black and a Horween Chromexcel Leather Belt in Brown and one in Burgundy. All three in the standard 1.5" width.
I also asked to have the edge of all belts dyed or painted black.
I went with Noble Buffalo in part because I wanted leather belts made from a single piece of leather. No layers or pieces of leather glued together that separate with time.
All belts are of excellent quality and I expect I will wear them for decades. The black English bridle leather belt is more firm than the two Horween belts but I have been wearing it a few months and it is broken in nicely.
The buckles are all well-made, you can feel it in their weight, and I think they have a timeless, classic look.
I highly recommend Noble Buffalo and have to add that Ben was very helpful and provided excellent customer service. If you need a belt buy it from Noble Buffalo!

My new favorite belt company
Thrilled to find a USA made belt of this type. Rugged, but classy enough to wear on the town. No Tactical Tommy vibes, while not bringing a church belt out for chinos and jeans. Sizing method works PERFECTLY!
