Thanks All, It is nice to have customers that allow you to make things like this.

ABN: He will wear this belt. I have made him several over $10,000 and he wears them all!

Beautiful work on the belt.

$16,400.00 ? When I think of the list of things I might buy if I had that much to blow......To be honest a belt doesn't even make the list!

I'd probably waste it on something frivolous(sp?) like a car.......or one of my kids college education.

Hell I'd likely spend half of it on Bourbon and hookers and just blow the rest. ;) Wait the wife might get tweaked about that. I have a hard time imagining spending $16K on a belt though. I did spend $1,100 for two buckles last year, but you only have one 25th anniversary.

Keith,

The more I think about this, the more I am inspired. I understand that there are only so many customers that can afford or desire that pricetag, but it does prove to leatherworkers that there is room to go up. It gives me faith when there are customers that will pay that for a belt, boots at 10K, and saddles are selling for 50K. I was in a shop last year, and watched them quote a guy $400 for a plain basket stamped belt, lined and stitched. They had a rack of $55 Vogts off to the side that to most people would have been hard to tell the difference. Customer ordered the shop belt with a 6 week wait. There is room at all levels. It also gives legitimacy that what we all are doing is an art and people are willing to pay for something that has our name on it. Then to further make it real, they are using it as intended.

Amazing. It is truly beautiful! I can't imagine having that kind of money to spend for a belt.
