Black

Your storage case in black matte crocodile 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 storage case or accessory you select. The leather of your storage case or accessory is then 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 black storage case from our choice of gold, palladium or ruthenium finishes. Your black leather storage case is equally suited to daily wear or special occasions like a wedding or award ceremony. Whether you choose it from our Classic, Bold, Timeless or Top Notch collections, your black leather storage case can be monogrammed with your initials – or someone else’s, if it is to be a gift.

Crocodile

Our storage boxes and accessories crafted in crocodile skin have won devotees right across the world – elegant people who appreciate the added value we bring through our superb craftsmanship. Duret Paris has built up a precious store of know-how over the years, and we are experts in handling this hard and durable skin. To make your crocodile storage boxes, we use the skin from the belly of the animal up to its tail, but also from the flanks, because these are the thinner, more supple cuts of skin. Most saddlery products and leather goods made with crocodile leather use skins from farm-bred Nile crocodiles or saltwater crocodiles. To do justice to this noble raw material, we dye it with natural pigments that can yield colors ranging from hot pink to the deepest black.

Matte

The option of choosing leather with a matte finish is available in all the collections of Duret Paris luxury belts. A matte finish comes with that understated, low-key vibe that is the marker of great elegance. All our different leathers can be given a matte finish, whether you opt for one of the various box and calfskin varieties, or a more exotic skin like ostrich, elephant, shark, or crocodile. You will need to give your Duret Paris luxury belt in matte leather a little bit of extra nurture, caring for it with a special colorless balm. If you do decide on a matte finish for your leather belt, you can have it in any color you like. At Duret Paris, we have unparalleled expertise in fine leathers and the mastery of traditional leatherworking techniques to craft the belt of your dreams for you in a matte finish.
