About The "Missouri Belt":
The Missouri Belt is built to last, made from the thickest full-grain USA steerhide. The leather is tanned in St. Louis, then each strap is cut, beveled, burnished, polished with beeswax, and fully assembled by me (Noble Buffalo - also in St. Louis). Made from extra-thick 12-14oz leather (5mm to 5.5mm), this is the heaviest hide I’ve worked with. Built to last for decades, the Missouri Belt combines toughness with lasting quality.
Hermann Oak - A Storied American Tannery:
The raw cowhide undergoes meticulous tanning on the Saint Louis Mississippi riverfront by Hermann Oak, one of the oldest tanneries in the United States, with a legacy dating back to the 1800s. Originally established to supply harness leather to wagon trains following the Lewis and Clark trails, Hermann Oak remains a family-owned institution, consistently producing the strongest leather.

This is a far cry from the 90 day bonded leather belts available online or in department stores now. My Noble Buffalo Missouri Belt is thick as a 19th century belt, sturdy and firm, and better than I expected. It was well worth the price.
This is one tough yet beautiful belt. I wore it with dress slack and dress jeans on a business trip for one full week before taking this picture of it on with an old pair of work pants. I love everything about it. I ordered the Thick Hermann Oak which is exactly what a big guy like me needs. Additionally, if anyone follows the instructions for Method #1 sizing, their belt will come delivered to the perfect size. I really appreciated those instructions. The belt fit perfectly, and Matte Black w/ Roller Bar is exactly what I need. I will be coming back for more and definitely recommending to others.
Great quality, just what I was looking for nice packaging and very good service, extremely satisfied.
Thank you Ben,
not only your top notch Customer Service, but your belts are just incredible and the best quality I’ve ever experienced! I was looking for only one belt but ended up with three. I appreciate the talent and workmanship you put into making these belts.
Thank you for your, USA handmade products!🇺🇸
This is my 10th belt from Noble Buffalo. I have been giving some as presents and everyone asks me where I found them. These are by far the absolute best belts that are made on the planet. Beautifully crafted and will last several lifetimes. I just hope that my grandchildren can wear my size. I am so glad I bought these. And thank you at Noble Buffalo for all you do!
