The Sheriff is a heavy-duty black basket weave leather belt made from substantial 13–14oz Wickett & Craig full-grain harness leather. Amish made in Ohio, this 1.5-inch belt combines traditional American leather craftsmanship with a classic embossed basket-weave pattern and the strength needed for regular everyday wear.

Classic Basket-Weave Embossing
The Sheriff features a traditional embossed basket-weave pattern across the leather strap. The textured design gives the belt a distinctive western-inspired appearance while remaining versatile enough for everyday wear.
If you like the look of a basket weave leather belt, western leather belt, or embossed leather belt, The Sheriff offers that classic styling in a much more substantial 13–14oz full-grain harness leather construction.
13–14oz Wickett & Craig Full-Grain Harness Leather
This belt is made from thick 13–14oz Wickett & Craig full-grain harness leather. The substantial weight gives The Sheriff a firm, durable feel and makes it well suited for customers who prefer a heavier leather belt over thin fashion belts.
Full-grain leather retains the natural grain structure of the hide and is valued for its strength, longevity, and ability to develop character with wear. The Sheriff is made from one solid piece of leather rather than bonded leather, laminated layers, or a synthetic core.
Traditional Amish Craftsmanship
The Sheriff is made in Ohio by Amish leatherworkers experienced in traditional belt making. Each belt is cut, embossed, finished, and assembled with a focus on sturdy construction and practical everyday use.
The result is a straightforward American-made leather belt built around quality materials rather than lightweight fillers or mass-produced layered construction.
Removable Roller Buckle
The roller buckle is attached with Chicago screws, allowing it to be removed and replaced with another compatible buckle if desired.
When the belt is worn, the attachment hardware is concealed behind the buckle fold, giving the belt a clean, traditional appearance.
Designed for Jeans, Work Pants, and Casual Wear
At 1.5 inches wide, The Sheriff is an excellent width for jeans, work pants, khakis, chinos, and many casual trousers. The heavy full-grain harness leather gives the belt substantial support, while the black basket-weave finish keeps it versatile enough for a wide range of outfits.
The embossed pattern adds more visual interest than a plain black belt without making it difficult to pair with everyday clothing.
How to Choose Your Belt Size
Do not order your pants size. For the most accurate fit, measure a belt that currently fits you well.
- Lay your current belt flat.
- Measure from the start of the leather at the buckle fold to the hole you use most often.
- Do not include the buckle itself in the measurement.
- That measurement is the size you should order.
- If the measurement falls on an odd number or between offered sizes, round up to the next available even size.
The size you order is measured to the center fitting hole, giving you adjustment in either direction. Please review the sizing illustration before ordering.
