RANGER BELTS
 
 
We have made these same belts for over 30 years. Each belt is hand cut with a draw gauge from 9-10 oz domestically tanned "English bridle" leather bends, which make for extremely durable strapping. This leather is actually tanned and finished for the horse bridle industry. This vegetable tanned leather is quite expensive, but worth the difference. Each strap is worked through 7 steps before it's attached to a solid brass buckle using solid brass rivets. Color choice is dark brown, medium brown, burgundy, chestnut, and black. We offer the ranger belts in two widths. Custom ranger belts for any buckle you may have is our specialty. It is necessary to send the buckle set to us.

The story goes that the first of these belts originated with the Texas Rangers. As you can see in the photo, a narrow billet strap is hand stitched to a wider base strap. A solid brass screw rivet allows the buckle to be removed. We offer the Ranger belt in a plain style that has an accent line parallel to the edge and in a hand tooled version where the wider portion only is tooled. We try to keep rangers made ahead in dark brown only, but will make one in any of the five colors on request.  All the belt colors can be seen on the one inch belt page.

BELT SIZE

Please determine belt size by measuring a currently used belt. Pants waist size is no longer a reliable way to determine belt size.
 
ALL BELTS ARE MADE TO ORDER
SIZE IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY. PLEASE MEASURE. NO RETURNS.

Measure from point "A" on the buckle to the most used hole on your current belt.  It might not be the middle hole. This measurement is usually 2 to 4 inches bigger than your pants waist size.

Point "B" on the new belt will be the middle of 5 holes (or loops on some styles).
