1 1/4" Classic Black
Goes with everything. Trousers, jeans, smart, weekend.
A true everyday belt. At 1¼" (32 mm) it's the do-everything width — jeans, chinos, dresses — and the black full-grain leather goes with all of them.
Handmade in London from 3.5 mm vegetable-tanned Italian leather, chosen for its natural grain and the way it ages. The press-stud fixing lets you swap the buckle in seconds, so one belt can wear several ways — add a spare and get even more out of it. All our buckles are nickel-free, brass or zamak, UK- or Italian-sourced.
Stamped beside our logo you'll find the 25-year warranty snip — our promise that this belt is built to last.
Colour note: leather is a natural material and some variation between hides is to be expected. Please bear in mind that monitor settings may also create variance.
To figure out your perfect fit, measure a well fitting belt from the place at which the buckle is attached to the most used hole.
Alternatively, if you do have a tape measure to hand, measure over your trousers, exactly as you would wear the belt - which allows for the added bulk of the trousers.
A full grain, natural finish, this leather's charm comes as it is used, aged, and gathers memories.
The leather we use for our classic belts is low maintenance and easy to care for. Most small scratches can be polished out with a clean, soft cloth.
Try not to let your new leather accessory get wet; if it does, allow it to dry naturally - away from heaters - and it might be worth giving it a little condition after.
If you feel it’s in need of some extra affection, you might like to use a leather conditioner. Anything with beeswax or natural oils is best. Feel free to get in touch for our own recommendation.
We do not recommend using a coloured conditioner, as there is a high risk of colour transfer onto clothes. A neutral one will rejuvenate the colour slightly without the risk of damage.
The buckles we use for our classic belts are Brass or Zamak which shines up well with typical metal polishes. Always test the polish in an inconspicuous place first.
All of our leather is supplied by tanneries who are audited and certified by the Leather Working Group.
The Leather Working Group is the world’s largest leather sustainability program. LWG has identified environmental best practices in the industry and audits tanneries to assess the environmental performance of leather manufacturing facilities – and certifies those that meet the standards.
The leather used for our Belts is supplied by a Tuscan tannery that has a Silver Rating from the LWG, as well as being a member of The Genuine Italian Vegetable Tanned Leather Consortium.
The Consortium’s mission is to safeguard the centuries-old tradition of vegetable tanning and to guarantee the quality of the raw material and workmanship. The Consortium guarantees manufacturing processes compatible with the ecosystem and not harmful to people.

Add A Spare Buckle?
Our Classic Belts are constructed with press studs so you can easily swap and change buckles - why not add a spare and extend the wear and versatility of your belt. Save £2 when you buy a spare buckle with your belt.
This belt is lovely! It's made from high-quality, thick leather. I ordered a size small after messaging the shop owner and it's perfect. I have a 29 inch waist. I chose the Wrektangle buckle in gold on a 1 1/4 inch belt. My next order will be for a classic tan colour. :-)
Nice, simple and clean design. Will have this belt for a very long time. It also has that lovely leather smell. A perfect product and Charlotte at the shop in Covent Garden was lovely. Thank you.
I needed a simple, good quality black leather belt and this is exactly what this is. The leather is thick and supple. I really appreciated the buckle choices available. This is the pill buckle.
Great quality and comparable to many designer belts at an affordable price. Love it, will be purchasing more in the future!
Really well made top quality leather belt ,easily detachable buckle with pop domes ,I'm 63 and this is 2nd belt I've bought from village leathers in a week as quality is so good ,has 25years guarantee and I don't doubt it ,brown and black belts I've bought are superb best I've ever had I highly recommend this leather belts ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Super belt, arrived quickly in perfect condition! Will probably buy more in different colours!
For some reason it's hard to find a good quality classic leather belt. This was a risk as I couldn't find any alternatives and I didn't know the shop. I've since bought 3(!) (1 is a present). Really pleased. Can recommend the quality of the leather and classic looking belt. No risk. Very pleased.

Love my belt - exactly what I wanted!
Nice belt
Beautiful belt
Looks great and good value too
I bought 1 for myself to start with, then immediately got another and 2 for my husband! These are great quality and you have the option to get different buckles if you want to change the look up. They will last for years and years so worth the investment. Good value for money as well. Thanks Village Leathers!!
it seemed really good quality, ordered wrong size so had to return
Great quality leather and a beautiful, practical buckle.
I love the smart idea of the interchangeable buckle system. When my buckle arrived scratched, the store replaced it immediately very friendly and easy communication. Excellent product and service. Highly recommended!
