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.
