bennyrum, yes, I have both the two inch double tongue nickel and the 1.75 inch brass double tongue buckles in stock. @winterland - sent you a production update @untucked - I'm repairing scratched burgundy swatches here and I think I've got the best and simplest repair for you, I can send it out this week. I know we've been PMing but just in case yu saw this post I wanted you to know I didn't forget about you. TO everyone else who's ordered and paid, check your messages, you ave a tracking number as of this evening. Also IMPORTANT (Winterland ignore this - you've paid and your belt is in work)  Anyway, I'm going to do five more belts at these prices and then I'm moving on to my website (still in work but I'll post the url when she's live). Anyway, this will be it for the 40/50 dollar belts with free shipping. I think this community is a great bunch of guys and it really has been an honor making you guys belts and hearing the positive feedback. I very much appreciate it and thank you. However, I do need to move to the next step on this journey and getting a viable website going is a huge part of that. My stuff will be a bit more expensive there but not insanely priced so this isn't some kind of "buy now or you'll regret it" thing, I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Happy Holidays everyone. Steve

So far this forum has helped facilitate employment at a denim startup AND has been a launchpad for a leather startup. Pretty cool. Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty cool (Larry David style).

I had your belt on all day. It's awesome. I'll get some pics up tomorrow as my wife is home for a day. It IS cool to see so many people making gear. |

MiddleAge - I do in fact have two of those buckles here so if you want a belt with one, let me know. I also have two in antique brass but wasn't planning on using them yet but I guess I'll offer them as well. That buckle/belt style is 40.00. I'll update the buckle post with pics. @stevekas ...awesome work brother! I must have one of those fine belts! If possible I'd like dibs on one of the antique brass buckles you mentioned, and the belt in burgundy. Let me know if they're available and I'll send the $ via Paypal . If not, I'll choose another style, I just dig the looks of the original buckles you offered. If I could get one of those in brass, on a burgundy belt....that would be sweeeet! I know the holidays are upon us, so I'm in no hurry brother |

Actually, you sent a message to me, not Derek G. I had to think for a minute "Did I get drunk and order a belt last night!?" (Because I have actually been actively resisting that urge, and it's been a hard fight, since those belts look so rad.) |

received my Marshdown Nat veg tan belt today. Top notch packaging containing a great looking belt. It's a belt, not much to say other than I'll be wearing it for many years and look forward to getting enough color on it that it doesn't look like a sliver of my pale abdomen is peaking out. thanks @stevekas    |

@david thank for the pics. It's funny man, My GF and I love seeing our stuff out there in the world. The belt looks great on you and I think you'll get some good aging in no time.
Funny about the fleshy color comment, I walked out of the closet once, shirtless and in a pair of jeans with a new natural belt on. I was just heading over to grab a shirt and my GF gave me a one word assessment of the shirtless/natural belt look. "No".
Just wear the thing into submission.
Note to anyone with a horse in this game, I'll be back to California Sunday and the belt factory will reopen and work will resume in earnest. Thanks for the patience over the holiday.

OK guys, we've topped out on orders and have to stop taking new ones until the website gets launched. If you and I are talking via PM don't worry, you're covered and have a spot even if we haven't finalized details and/or payment yet.
I'll drop a note when the site is up....I just need a minute to set the damn thing up lol.
This has been a massively fun experience and half of the fun was getting to know some of you a bit better. I'll still be around with dumb comments and the usual drunken blather.
Happy New Year...ALL of you guys.
Steve

Just walked into my office and the brown "bro" belt is sitting right on my desk. For whoever still thinking about getting one, get it now! I have two more expensive Gustin belts (#8 Cordovan $94 and Saddle Tan $45) and this "bro" belt is nicer in both workmanship and material. I will post some unboxing photos later today.
Thanks and great work, Steve.
