Kilt belts and buckles

[KiltedCodeWarrior]

I know that I am being lazy, but do they come in brown as well? What is the price?

The casual belts I saw last Saturday at the Tartans Museum are some of the nicest I've seen- well, except for mine, of course…

if you are looking for one that is really inexpensive, got to Lowes, and look in their tool-belt section. They have a dark brown, double-hole belt, three inches wide that is great. I've got one and it makes matching brown boots pretty easy!

What I did was go to my local leather/ saddlery shop and buy a pre-cut belt blank for something like $6-$8 and a brass buckle for around $4.
A lot of the belt blanks are already cut from a black or brown dyed leather.

If you want a different color, purple? Fiebings oil leather dye works very well.

My kilt belt and buckle were purchased from the musuem, I am very pleased with the appearance and quality of both.

Brasilkilt, pic please. I have a couple of leather shops insured, just didn't really know what I need to be looking for.

I bought a 2 inch leather belt on ebay for $25. It's great quality, and I couldn't be happier. It was from dangerousthreads.com I think.

I'm so glad you answered this question before I asked it. I found the natural belts a couple of months ago at my local Lowes or Home Depot - don't remember which - but I didn't know how to finish them.

So, then what? They get a coat of clear leather wax or what?

Thanks,

I took your advice and went to Lowes, I bought two, one plain that I dyed black and the other is the perfect brown. A great deal, thanks much.

That's so ironic, I did the same thing about a month and a half ago. The belts are about $18.00 plus tax. It's great for a feilidh-mhor/breacan-feile. They look pretty good for day wear, but I wouldn't wear them with a tweed jacket (Ettrick) during the day. These belts have a rugged quality to them. I have one and I personally think they are great for those on a budget or starting out.
