talon Report post Posted March 17, 2011 I'm looking for a leather worker to make double layer stitched belts for concealed carry. In brown and black 1.5 inch width. Price is pretty important. Please let me know if you are interested. This will be a long term agreement and I will be purchasing 5-10 a month on a custom basis. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
talon Report post Posted March 17, 2011 Just to give you more info, I will be reselling the belts and they will be sold under my company name. In the future I may look at stiffening the belts with a plastic material, would you be able to do this? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TwinOaks Report post Posted March 17, 2011 What kind of retail price are figuring for the belts? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
talon Report post Posted March 17, 2011 What kind of retail price are figuring for the belts? Well, I'm hoping for right around $60.00, although I'm not sure if that is unrealistic. I could go as high as $70.00 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does that mean each belt will be custom designed and stamped? or just personalized with a name stamped across the back? I'm not sure how you can expect a bulk rate price if you're wanting custom hand made one of a kind belts. Will your "long term agreement" guarantee at least 5 belts a month for 2 years, with the first year or 60 belts paid in advance? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will your "long term agreement" guarantee at least 5 belts a month for 2 years, with the first year or 60 belts paid in advance? I suppose Custom isn't the right word, Let me be more descriptive. I'm looking to purchase 5-10 plain 1.5" double layer stitched leather belts per month. I would prefer a minimum order of 5 belts per order because I'm a small shop and can't tie much money up in inventory I don't mean a contractual agreement, so I suppose that was misleading, I do, however, expect to work with the same person for a few years. Thanks for the feed back and to those that have already contacted me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gregd Report post Posted April 9, 2011 I just finished a belt fitting this description, the inside layer being nylon. Similar to a military style belt, only stiffer.Kevlar may have been more durable, or not. I fully expect this article to last the rest of my life;and I'm reasonably young. If you still need a craftsman to assemble your belts just let me know. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
