I love making belts.

Perhaps, because I know it’s one of those items someone may put on every day. Therefore, it has the potential to become their favourite accessory. A well worn and loved belt could tell a thousand stories about their adventures with just one person.

When you choose to purchase a belt from trace of grey designs…you are truly making an excellent choice for quality, uniqueness and timeless style.

Each belt that I make is crafted one at a time, with great care and attention to detail.

The next step is to completely seal the dye with an acrylic resolene, which also acts as a water proofer.

Finally, I burnish the edges and underside, which gives the belt a super smooth feel in your hands.

If you choose to leave the belt its natural shade, and not add any colour to it, the leather will gradually darken to a rich shade of caramel with time and use. This is also a beautiful option!

Voila! You now have a one of a kind, hand made, leather belt that will last you for many many years.
