About the Mountain Belt Russet 1.75
The Mountain Belt is a serious piece of leather. Built from Hermann Oak's Old World Harness leather, this heavy duty leather belt is not for fragile hearts and delicate trousers. Purchase the Dark Brown color here. Built as a work horse, not a show horse. It's meant for hard labor and hard use, and wouldn't do well to hold up anything dressy due to it's heavy duty frame.

- Strap Width Options include 1.5" and 1.75".
- Colors include Russet and Dark Brown
- Buckle Hardware is solid brass. (Matte Nickel is plated on solid brass)
- The billet end of the belt has 7 holes spaced by 1" on hole center.
- It is 6.5" from the center hole to the tip of the belt tongue.
- See our Belt Warranty Information.
Due to the nature of drum dyed leather, color may not exactly match the photographed color. But they will always be very close. Expect your leather belt to darken and patina with age and wear. (See below)
Available in a Russet or Dark Brown color that is drummed dyed at Hermann Oak’s tannery in Saint Louis, Missouri. The waxy harness leather tends to resist the intake of the dark brown oil dye, and results in a fantastic antique patina. Accented with a large antiqued solid brass buckle, this belt has an old world class that is timeless. Secured with 2 screw posts, you are able to swap this solid brass buckle out for your favorite buckle with the simple turn of a standard screw driver.
Thank you for supporting independent and hand made.
"How beautiful this was when it was new. And how beautiful it still is, even though time has made it different".

"There's something comforting about knowing the face and name of the craftsman making something for you. An item made to order; however, is particularly whimsical and takes it one step further. Your soon to be special item isn't just sitting on a shelf waiting to be ordered, but instead, exists as raw materials, awaiting your order and a skilled craftsman's touch." Badger and Blade

Amazing belt that I look forward to patina well
"The mountain belts are great high quality belts. I have both the dark brown and the russet. They are thick high quality renowned harness leather but since it’s a single layer they are still quite comfortable. The customer service was excellent. They helped me find just my right size and custom made it for me. I even ordered one of each color for my nephew."
Hands down best.
"Will last a lifetime, real thing. Does not stretch, will not crack , for sure will be used by my boys after I pass. Great company American made with love and care."
Best Leather Belts Ever, Best Money for Value!
"Bought my first brown 1. 75 Mountain belt a few years ago from C&L! Throughout the last few years have added, blackout belt, craft black 1. 75, craft brown 1. 75, trade belt black, mountain belt russet 1. 75 and mountain 1. 5! They are truly the best belts ever, the thickness of the leather is of superb quality and ages beautifully. Would love to see a 1. 75 blackout & 1. 75 oxblood as soon as they have it will add it to my collection. Thank you for making my wardrobe complete C&L!"

"Few items I’ve purchased in my life that are well worth every penny. This belt is one of them! Simple, quality, long lasting. It’s actually better in person. Highly recommended."
AWESOME
"It's hard to describe just how incredible this belt is. The photos on the website are great but no substitute for seeing it in person. And wearing it. This is an insanely high quality piece of equipment. I had high expectations based on word of mouth and it exceeded all of those. It might just be my favorite belt of all-time outside of the cowboy belt I had with my name on the back in 1985. This is probably the missing piece in your wardrobe whether your'e wearing Iron Heart or Levi's or Gap or whatever. So I highly recommend it. And you should trust me because this is the only belt review I've ever left."
Worth the money (and wait time)
"Gorgeous belt! I received mine today, which was a gift from my wife for our 20th wedding anniversary! I'm picky, so she told me to order a belt of my choosing, and after reviewing several craftsman, I chose Craft and Lore! I've purchased too many belts, and it was time to invest in a belt that would last."
Beautiful product, highly recommend
"The Mountain Belt Russet 1. 75 is a fantastic product, absolutely love it. I probably would have gone for the 1. 5 in retrospect, but that’s on me. It is big and tough and will take some time to break in, but it will last a lifetime. Amazing!"
