Skin

Your Duret Paris box calf belt is crafted from extremely high-quality calfskin. A belt made from natural box such as this has a smooth and firm appearance, with full grain leather. The tanning technique that achieves such beautiful leather involves using chrome or chrome salt. A bluish-gray color along its edges shows the presence of chrome, unlike many vegetable-tanned leathers. This premium leather is very smooth and has a fine, supple texture, although small marks or grains may occasionally appear. Box calf leather is highly prized by the most upscale brands for all their leather goods and fashion collections. Its combination of fineness and resistance make box calf one of our favorites to work with at Duret Paris. 

If you pick canvas made from linen for the design of your belt or accessory, you are choosing something truly exceptional. Belts made from natural linen canvas are distinguished by their rare, tight weave. Canvas made from linen is also environmentally friendly, which makes it a highly sought-after material. It adds an authentic, natural touch to your superior quality belt from Duret Paris. Made entirely by hand and dyed with natural pigments, your belt is crafted by the expert hands of Michaël Benarroch and his highly skilled leathercrafters. The type of buckle, its color and the linen stitching can be combined to suit your preferences. At Duret Paris, we will customize your orders for belts or accessories made in linen canvas so they are exactly how you want them.

Color

Our natural box calf and ecru canvas belts are 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. Intrinsic to our love for the craft is a commitment to making sure the raw materials we use – our calf, buffalo, pony, crocodile, ostrich, python, elephant, and other animal skins – are ethically sourced and certified. Most of them are bought through France’s leading tanneries, which have an excellent reputation. 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, tan, using natural pigments. You can pick the type of buckle that best matches your tan belt from our choice of gold, palladium or ruthenium finishes. Your canvas and tan leather belt is equally suited to daily wear or special occasions like a wedding or award ceremony. Whatever style you choose, your canvas and tan leather belt can be monogrammed with your initials – or someone else’s, if it is to be a gift.
