1.5" Painted Black Teacore Leather Quick Release Belt *fades to brown to pair with Red Wing Klondike Leather*

Red Wing's Klondike leather is infamous for its aging qualities- it wears to brown, with every scuff, the brown core comes through more and more. For several months I tested various methods to match this aging quality. I'm happy to say that I've done it! Starting with 9-10 oz Herman Oak Vegtan, each item is hand painted with a black leather paint, that will with wear, fade/scuff/scratch to the natural core, which will turn more and more brown as it ages. I've pictured an example of how the leather on my belt has already begun to scuff through to the tan core (it's the last picture before the sizing diagram). I chose to pair this with a brown thread to better match the boots.

Forgive the lack of a proper product photo, but all belts with leather keepers will now come stamped with my pigeon logo.

Available with either my Patented Double Prong Quick Release Buckle or the classic single prong quick release that has been around for over 200 years.

Upgrade to my new Patented Japanese Made Double Prong Quick Release Buckle by adding this listing to your order.

The Double Prong Quick Release Buckle features the same quick release action that you're familiar with. Simply flick down on the lever and the belt will come undone. The tension keeps it buckled, and it will never come undone on its own.

To order this belt, please measure one of your old belts using the diagram pictured above. The system that I use is the most accurate method of measurement, and involves measuring from the end of the buckle prong, to the hole that fits you best (this method accounts for any difference in length between your buckle and mine). You can add your measurement in the measurement section above, or you can shoot me a message thereafter.
