Why Choose Distressed Buffalo Leather?

Distressed buffalo leather is premium full grain hide that's been specially treated to create an authentic vintage appearance with natural color variations and a soft, supple texture. Unlike artificially aged leather, our distressed finish uses traditional techniques that create genuine character. The result is a belt strap that looks like it's been your trusted companion for years, with a comfortable broken-in feel from the first wear.

Interchangeable Belt System

The Cripple Creek features heavy-duty TKK snaps that make swapping buckles effortless. Pair with any of our premium 1.5" belt buckles to create multiple belt combinations from a single strap. The vintage distressed finish pairs beautifully with antique brass, bronze, or aged silver buckles for a cohesive vintage aesthetic.

Note: Belt strap only - buckle sold separately. Compatible with any 1.5" / 38mm belt buckle.

How to Measure Your Belt Size

Lay your current belt flat and measure from where the buckle attaches to the leather (the fold) to the hole you currently use. Order that measurement, rounding up if needed. For example, if you measure 37" or 38" to your preferred hole, order size 38". We'll craft your belt so the center hole hits your measurement perfectly.
