    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

    I wasn't trying to argue, but I wanted to be clear about why the belt is made the way it is. Frankly, I may not be able to ever make the belt look good on a suit and still do its job. If a more classic looking buckle would change the whole look of the belt, then maybe. I will look over some...

    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

    Thanks for the link - that Paul Stuart belt is really sharp. The AE Belt is really just a strip of leather with a buckle. Not what my niche is after, but if I could sell them for $69, I would have a great margin!

    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

    I am using a high grade Vegetable Tanned Leather from Wickett & Craig. The belt has a high sheen on it (not gloss though), but I usually try to tone that down on photos, since the glare wipes out the detail in the photos. It isn't a bridle type leather, as it is too soft for what the belt is...

    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

I guess I just don't have the right eye, and I am certainly not going to change my...

    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

    Can you post a picture of the type of buckle that would appeal to you? I actually get a lot of orders for just the buckle, and personally, I like it. Maybe not ideal, but it is made in the US and not some cheap import. I am looking at having buckles made, that have a more slender profile...

    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

    Buckles are the toughest part. The one pictured is a Titanium Buckle I have made, but it is really hard to find nice buckles. The large companies have them made by the thousands (in China) and designed to their specs, but it isn't always feasible for little shops. Western and/or flashy...

    Can you help me make this belt "Better"?

    Hi, My name is John Ralston, and I make custom leather (and I am new to the forum). This isn't any type of sales pitch (I am so backed up right now I can't even see straight) - I would just like my product to look as good as it can and would like your input. This belt isn't really intended...
