Handcrafted: finely braided belts

After more than thirty years, the Herr von Welt said goodbye to his most loyal companion, a finely braided leather belt with a leather-covered buckle from a well-known luxury manufacturer. In the search for a worthy replacement, it turned out that most of the available braided leather belts are somewhat "limp" and, on the whole, "unstable". It doesn't have to be like that, taught us the manufacturer of our suspenders, a family business in Treviso, not far from Venice. Here, the carefully prepared leather is skilfully braided by skilled hands. For the hand-covered buckles, the leather is split, then pulled over the metal, sewn, bent into shape and finally sewn to the belt by hand.
