Black buffalo belt, embellished with a delta palladium (silver) buckle in a shiny finish. This belt is custom-made and entirely hand sewn in saddle stitch using black linen thread. The lining of this belt is made in black box calf. Belt width measures 35 mm.

Skin

Buffalo hide is identifiable by its veined appearance and coarser feel. As it is a very thick and strong leather, buffalo makes an ideal choice for your luxury belt. It originates in Africa, and will sometimes display light scarring or marks where the animal was bitten by insects. This can add a touch of uniqueness, or these areas can be removed, depending on the esthetic desired. Duret Paris is especially careful to uphold an ethical supply chain, and we acquire our exotic buffalo leather from officially certified sources. These are noble materials and will enhance the buffalo hide that makes up the key element of your Duret Paris belt.

Color

Your belt in black buffalo was crafted with the traditional saddlery and leathercrafting know-how of Duret Paris. We have been bringing our exacting quality, subtle style, and eye for perfection to our unique and authentic leather goods for over 25 years. The quality of our leathers and skins is paramount to us, since they will be the cornerstone of the belt or accessory you select. The leather of your belt or accessory will be dyed the desired color, black, using natural pigments. A hallmark of Duret Paris, a patinated black can also be achieved through the application of beeswax. You can pick the type of buckle that best matches your brown belt from our choice of gold, palladium or ruthenium finishes. Your black leather belt is equally suited to daily wear or special occasions like a wedding or award ceremony. Whatever style you choose, your black buffalo belt can be monogrammed with your initials – or someone else’s, if it is to be a gift.

Finish

Duret Paris belts and accessories made in suede are characterized by their natural finish. The suede finish is worked on the flesh side of the leather (the inside of the skin). It’s a material that is soft, light and velvety to the touch. Duret Paris mainly uses calfskin to craft your premium suede belt. Suede calfskin can also be enhanced by the application of a special patina.
