PM replied. We have around 20 people at the moment - please do PM me with your e-mail if you're interested! Btw, at this stage, the leather will likely be a natural/light tan of some sort. We are also talking of the possibility of working with Jeff Decker for custom buckles. P.S. A reminder to those that PMed me - please PM again with your e-mail so I can add you to the list.

Same here! I got the impression from the email that this guy knows as much about these belts as the craftsmen themselves. Can't wait to learn more about the final product!
