SWK Belts?
Hello all,
Polling those of you who have SWK belts for you kilt. Looking at the photo on the site, the leather looks VERY cheap. The photo could be better, as well. Yes, the price is low, but I have always worn good leather, and wouldn't want something that is going to fall apart. Darn all of you SWK lovers, I think I see myself buying one of theirs later on...

Jerry at Stillwater-Kilts is a good source for inexpensive, fast service. But if you want a high quality belt, that will give you years of service, might I suggest OconeeLeatherWorks.

Ditto. I have a still water belt that I use very occasionally. But I use the Oconee Leatherworks belts I have far more frequently. Although a bit more expensive,t hey are fine leather and will last many, many years.

the SWK is ok, its all i have though. its good but sometimes its not comfortable and you'll need to use that leather softener stuff to make it better. also its hard to adjust.

I love SWK, and they sell a great economy belt. That's exactly what it is, an economy belt. If you're looking for high quality leatherwork, look elsewhere.

I have a Stillwater belt. It's not fine leather, but it's plenty sturdy. I can assure you that it will not fall apart.

Exactly...
I have this belt:

I am very pleased with it. For the price I think that it is a very good belt. I really like the Velcro adjustment. It works great for me as I am slowly losing weight.

I have the same belt. It is a good and inexpensive starter belt. I will be making my own in a few months, time and finances willing.
