That’s a cool belt! Are you saying you stitched it yourself? Good job [emoji106]

Just finished stitching a new belt and thought I’d take some comparison pics with my old one, used for 1,5 years. Quite a difference.

Great job looks very nice
It looks much more western style than your previous garrison belt style, with what shoes you plan to pair it with, cowboy boots?

Thanks guys! I hand stitched both of those belts. Haven’t done anything in leather for a couple of months prior to this, but feels good to be back in the saddle again. I’ll just never stop being fascinated with how natural leather ages.

@navetsea I’m hoping engineer boots will work with this western style belt. I would love a pair of cowboy boots, but my girlfriend would not be happy at all. No sir, not at all happy.

Looks as though you're getting some strong sun! I've only really had one opportunity to wear it so far - we had a scorcher of a day on Sunday, at least by our standards up here, so I headed out for the day in it. Don't think it's quite taken on a similar tan, though I'll need to check under the collar. The leather does mark quite easily. Before I'd even worn it, my Wayfarer had a couple weird red smudges on the back, which I have no idea where they came from. I'm ignoring them and wearing the thing regardless - if something serious happens, there are cream cleaners out there that can lift them and protectors to stop further damage, but I want to give the jacket time to develop its own character, as I can see what it'll become over time and I can see it becoming a real favourite as long as I let it do its own thing.
