Leather Vanguard Belt - 1"

The Vanguard Belt: Craftsmanship That Stands the Test of Time.

Finding a quality 1" belt that doesn't fall apart after a few months is harder than it should be. Our Vanguard Belt solves this problem permanently. It's built with the same attention to detail as our classic belts, but with additional features that make it perfect for both formal settings and daily wear.

The Vanguard features polished and dyed finished edges with a machine-stitched perimeter that prevents the stretching and sagging common in most store-bought belts. Made from premium full-grain leather, this belt develops a rich character the more you wear it - looking better next year than it does today.

When you thread this belt through your loops, you'll immediately notice the difference. The solid brass buckle and matching keeper provide just the right weight and distinctive look. This is a belt built to last for decades, not seasons.

Why our Vanguard 1" Belt stands apart:

• Crafted from premium 9oz full-grain leather that gains character and patina with each wear
• Machine-stitched perimeter ensures the belt maintains its shape for years of service
• Polished and dyed finished edges add refinement while allowing smooth movement through loops
• Solid brass buckle and matching keeper provide perfect balance between function and appearance
• Solid brass Chicago screws allow for custom buckle swaps while securing hardware
• 1" width perfect for dress pants, chinos, and shorts
• Backed by our lifetime guarantee because we stand behind our work

Please Note: For the perfect fit, measure a belt you currently wear using our sizing guide. If you don't have a belt to measure, add 2" to your favorite jeans' waist size.
