Cut and sewn in California
We decided to design something to pair with our great denim. The logical next step was the perfect belt. Here is the Gustin Classic Belt. Its style goes perfectly with our raw denim - classic, tough, and clean. Of course, like our denim, our belt gets the same obsessive attention to craftsmanship and detail. It uses a natural vegetable tanned harness leather, which will age into a beautiful golden brown over time. It’s a substantial 9/10 ounce weight sourced from a tannery that uses all domestic steer.
We pay special attention to the finish as we do on all our products. The strap is edged, burnished with beeswax, and finished with a traditional English point. We use a solid brass center bar buckle that gets tumbled to subtly tarnish the nickel finish. It’s secured with two solid Chicago screws, so you can change your buckle if you want. We’re super excited to make this belt in California.
If you look around, belts of this quality and design are typically much higher. If we had to sell at retail and guess which style you wanted, we would be stuck doing the same. Fortunately, we’re not, which means you get a top quality product for a radical price.
Variations in color, shade, and finish are natural characteristics of handcrafted leather, making each piece truly one of a kind.

Customer Feedback on THE CLASSIC BELT
"Very nice belt - simple, well made, good looking. Nothing fancy about it, it just lets its high quality do the talking. And it goes very well with denim."
-Craig G. | Verified Buyer
"much thicker than I anticipated which is great. previously, i bought the oiled horween belt which was unexpectedly thin. this one is much thicker and the nude color is like a blank canvas for indigo crocking."
-Seavy S. | Verified Buyer
"Delighted with this belt, the weight and the leather. Can’t wait for it to age beautifully over the years."
-Chris W. | Verified Buyer
"A straightforward item, but one that's well-made with proper materials - the colour is quite stark (to be expected with this leather finish), but should age well. Branding is (blessedly) on the inside of the belt. The sizing (42" measured from tip of the buckle to the middle hole) was just right for my 38" waist (based on Levi's 501 sizing). I was ordering from the UK, and found the communication and delivery process to be reliable and pleasingly uncomplicated (though this was all pre-tariff adventurism). A promising first purchase."

What Customers Are Saying
"My 1968s came in the mail yesterday…They're amazing! From the fit (thank you for all the hand-holding!) to the detailing, I'm blown away. Just tremendous quality at any price point, but the value here is off the charts."
-Scott S. | Verified Buyer
"Your great quality product and customer service are reasons I've been a long time customer and will continue to do so."
-Sean S. | Verified Buyer
"About a year ago, a coworker introduced me to Gustin (he rocks some of your pants to the office on the regular) and I have been watching the releases ever since. About three months ago, I finally backed a campaign. Since then, I have been so happy with all the pieces I have received."
