Ray Mears Leather Belt - Black

£75.00

Weight: 264 g 12 reviews

Each Ray Mears leather belt is handmade from a single piece of supple, fine quality heavy bridle butt. The belt is cut from the length of the butt, and the leather will become even more supple over time and with use.

The belt comes embossed with the Ray Mears Bushcraft logo, making this product a very special item exclusive to Woodlore. The thickness of the leather makes the Woodlore Belt strong enough to be used as a knife strop or to lash things together whilst the natural beauty of the leather is brought out by the hand burnished edges and traditional crease line.

The heavyweight, solid brass buckle with roller is a type usually found on traditional heavy horse harness. Two leather loops keep the free end of the belt in place; one fixed at the buckle and one free-running.

All of our leather goods are hand-made in England by a craftswoman with over two decades of experience. All leathers are vegetable tanned with full, natural grain, and are hand-dyed in house.

For an insight into Ray's ethos on our leather goods, please view our Leather Goods page.

Various lengths are available, ranging from 40 up to 52 inches.

Great quality belt. Thick and supple leather. My belt varied from the picture in that It was black on both sides which for me was a bonus. Very fast delivery as always.

This is an excellent item. I have had a brown belt now for a few years, it has settled in and is very much an old friend. I have been wanting a matching black belt for a while. and finally bought one. This product is exceptionally well made, feels and smells wonderful and if looked after will last a lifetime. A brilliant investment, thank you Woodlore.

Got two of these belts now, they are bullet proof. I wouldn't use anything else to hold my breeks up. If you're on the fence, buy it, you won't regret it.

This is my second purchase of the high quality Ray Mears Leather Belt. Mine came with batch no B107 on sticker card. I wonder why the 'Ray Mears Bushcraft' logo embossed by the brass buckle is not on the front of the belt, so everyone would know the brand of the belt worn.

Dear Filimon. Thank you for your review. The Ray Mears Bushcraft logo is embossed discretely near the brass buckle as we thought this would look better on this particular product.

I returned to Woodlore for my second belt (despite its price) because of the quality. I have looked at numerous others and they were all made from thinner leather and had fancy buckles. The Woodlore Leather Belt is robust, simple, and well-made. I would like to thank Becky (the leatherworker) for her generous help with my query about a previous purchase. My only criticism of the Woodlore Belt is the position of its ‘Ray Mears’ logo. On all of the other Woodlore items that bear one, the logo is clearly visible. I’d guess that most of us who wear or carry Woodlore-branded products are proud to do so and happy to publicise the brand. Why then, is the logo on the belt up by the buckle, so as soon as it is worn, the logo is hidden. If it was on the end of the belt, it could be seen.

A fantastic belt. Amazingly thick leather and heavy duty hardware. I couldn't ask for more.

Great thick belt. Oozes quality. Would have been 5 star for quality. Knock off 1 star for price and sizing description. E.g. Size warning! I had not appreciated (as in my opinion the description on the webpage was not clear when I ordered) that a size 44 (to fit a 34 inch waist) is actually 44 inches in length. As I'm only a waist size 34, I ended up with 10 whole inches wrapping a third of my body past my hip. It might make sense for 10 inches extra for someone who is a 44 inch waist, but I'm not sure it makes sense for someone who has (for example) a 30 inch waist (ending up with 10 extra inches!). Anyways, I returned the belt and got a size 40 (to fit a 30 inch waist) and it now fits my 34 inch waist with 6 inches extra ending just before the left side of my hip rather than before with a size 44 (for a 34 inch waist) and having it wrap to almost my back.
