I love getting these kinds of notes from my customers. It’s affirmation,  I am on the right track, doing the right thing, for the right price. “WOW> Received belt in mail today.

This is my own style of leather work. I don’t like to add “superfluous decorative items” to my work. Generally, I  keep it simple. But this is my attempt at getting fancy…                

I am not big on gadgetry when it comes to my own style of leather work. I don’t like to add lots of “stuff and decorative items” on my work. I try and keep it simple. But sometimes, its nice to step out and get fancy..we don’t live in caves,  ya know! Taking that need […]

I am not big on gadgetry when it comes to my own style of leather work. I don’t like to add lots of stuff, I don’t use “decorative items” on my work. I try and keep it simple. Simple works, it functions, its durable, its straightforward, its not “bulky”, it’s just what needed.In that vein, […]

Friend, neighbor, riding partner, local titan of business, TR is a good guy whose been kind enough to give me some business over the years. I’d made him a pretty unusual belt a year or so ago, a Scrapper that was pretty fun and good with jeans. It was a rugged belt that was more […]

Ah yes, we’ve all felt it  at some point during the aging process – the dreaded shrinking belt syndrome, which is usually preceded by shrinking pants syndrome and shrinking jacket syndrome. Well some many many years ago, I’d made Chris, a beautiful flame  belt, as I called them – and he loved it and wore […]

Many of my customers come to me for custom work after previously having had a “not-so-good” experience with leather hobbyists who do “work for hire”.  It’s understandable that this happens – as it takes time to get a handle on the art, the craft and most of all the materials necessary to make something from […]

Keeping pants up is serious business and I take it seriously – believe it! This ultra thick 12oz veg tan belt is for Chris – who will wear it every day for work. This belt is replacing a belt I made him 6yrs ago, which quite honestly is just about worn to death. This new […]

I cant get enough of these, people seem to like them and seeing mine every AM when I am pulling on my droopy drawers makes my heart sing with joy. You can see whats available here, and remember – Custom orders are accommodated! Cheers!                  

To a person living in the Northeast when the phrase “hatbands” is uttered , well, it conjures up visions of  a weird musical unit. For the most part we don’t wear hats in the East, we wear caps and so I’ve not been exposed to things like “real hats” in any great way.  Well wouldn’t […]

If you bought one of my wallets and wore it hard everyday for 5 years, what would it look like? Well, this is what Jon’s looks like. Pretty damn good He sent this to me along with an order for a guitar strap. Thanks Jon!!

                  I’m a fan of color & texture. In my world, it should feel as good, as it looks,  as it works. My customers seem to agree…

The SteveB Valet is made, by me, right here in the USA,  of two 10.0z squares of seriously heavy duty vegtan leather between which is another sandwich of chrome tanned leather from Langlitz. This whole shebang is glued, stitched and riveted together – so you know this unit will outlive the roaches and will be […]

the OLD SHOE, a generation 2, belt fob – check it out – a tried and true design. I wore it on my belt as I do all of my designs to insure “structural viability and integrity” (only the most rigorous tests on my stuff will do) and now that the design is well vetted, […]

This is a travel wallet to hold travel/on the road documents and receipts. It has an unusual and unique stamped design. It is thick and substantial, it is one of a kind and measures 8.5″x 4 5/8′. It’s designed to be able to slip a passport, plane tickets, license, receipts, maps and all the paper […]

Got sent this buckle, made a nice 1.75″ belt with a basketweave design stamped into it…. the belt will far outlive the buckle as it should be
