Do you have to skive any of the leather that you use or can you buy it in those weights from tandy or weaver? I don't want the belt to be too thick either, are the belts that you make really thick? Would 2 strips of 3-4oz garment leather be good for a belt? Sorry for all of the questions, I'm very new to this.

I'm very new to leatherwork but I've always wanted to try it out so forgive me if this is a dumb question. I want to make some lined leather belts for christmas gifts and I was wondering if using 2 layers of garment leather and hand stitching them would look good and be durable? I'm kind of aiming for an hermes mens belt look with black leather on one side and brown leather on the other
