Leather Belts
American Crafted / Full Grain Leather
Among the many leather belts available, full-grain leather belts stand apart effortlessly. While they’re noticeable, they achieve this without being overly flashy. A discerning eye can quickly identify their quality, having grown accustomed to spotting throwaway consumer goods. Our mission at Duvall Leather was to create the ultimate men’s accessory – a durable leather belt designed to endure a lifetime.
In crafting the finest leather belts, one must return to the fundamentals and gradually and thoughtfully build upon them.

When selecting a high-quality leather belt, it is crucial to consider your personal style. While some individuals favor simple and classic belts, others may prefer bold and distinctive designs. Ultimately, the key is to choose a belt that not only fulfills its functional purpose of holding up your pants but also adds a touch of flair to your overall ensemble. |
Leather Belt Sizes, Fit and Length
When it comes to choosing the right belt size, it’s easy to get caught up in the details and overthink the process. Many people find themselves feeling anxious just at the thought of trying to figure out their belt size. However, Duvall Leatherwork, we have made and sold thousands of quality leather belts for men, and we have developed an in-house measuring system that works very well.
All we need is your jeans size and that’s it! But please, don’t guess, look at the sizing tag on your jeans.
The Leather Belt Fit & Feel
When you first encounter high-quality full-grain leather goods, the initial experience can be unusual. Contrary to expectations, new leather feels surprisingly rigid and stiff. This firmness is because it requires a break-in period to soften and become more pliable.
This is when the leather’s unique story begins. The duration of this process varies depending on how frequently you use your leather belt. With regular use, it may develop a soft, supple, and flexible feel within a month or two. However, if you handle it more gently and don’t wear it as often, the stiffer feel may persist for a longer period.
Over time, you will develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for your leather goods as they undergo a graceful aging process. Leather belts crafted from the finest full grain leather only enhance their appearance and tactile qualities with age.
For most men, a leather belt is a personal accessory that they may consider purchasing only once a decade. Don’t endure a cheap, blended leather belt for an extended period when you can invest in a handcrafted, high-quality leather belt that will bring you pride and satisfaction every time you fasten it.
