IHB-08 - Heavy Duty "Tochigi" Leather Belt with Nickel Plated Garrison Buckle
-
Buckle will get less shiney with wear? Is one of the old Garrison buckles laying around?
-
It'll get less shiny with wear as long as you treat it with contempt. No old Garrison buckles aout, just the new ones….
-
Does the old one fit? Think a friend still has my old brown…
-
Gotcha!
-
Looks great with the IHSH-50!

Today I've noticed that my belt is missing one screw :'(. Damn, it did come undone unnoticeably and got lost. @Alex @Giles do you have any left? I'd need two screws and two of those small parts the screws are being screwed into (sorry, dunno what they're called) so I can have a replacement and a spare one for the future.
-
Since mine is already half-dismantled and also felt pretty dry I gave it the complete Obenauf's Leather Oil treatment and it became amazingly soft and supple. Note that this is the brown version which looks almost black now.
-
Obenaufs is good stuff. In my experience it lightens a bit after a while but not back to the original color. I’ve used it on all my (non-boot) leather stuff for years.

I know that there are measurements on the website, but I'm wondering if anyone in the 32-34" waist range (or even a 33" like me) has one of these, and what their thoughts are on Medium versus Large?
-
I am a true W33 and went for a Large. The belt is pretty comfy if not slightly loose on the middle hole when worn with thick denim. The second hole is doable but snug and not very pleasant to wear (for me). My advice would definitely be the L because you can always cut a small piece off of it to adjust it to your personal liking. The Medium will end up as too short.
