The Black Series features all materials, including the buckles, leather, and thread, finished in black. Crafted from thick cowhide and hand-stitched, these bags are durable and will age beautifully over time. Each piece of vegetable-tanned leather has a slightly different appearance, allowing you to appreciate the natural beauty of leather. The Black Series buckles are painted, allowing the brass color to gradually emerge over time. Enjoy the patina of this aging piece.
The buckle is made of specially processed brass.

"SOAK IN WATER"
A Kobe-based manufacturer specializing in belts, the company has been producing handcrafted belts since its founding in 2012.
One of the reasons I started making things was my encounter with old British saddlery. The well-worn leather and metal fittings of old saddlery had a unique beauty and charm that was not found when it was new.
What is the essence of an object that develops character and develops a sense of attachment the longer it is used? How can we create such an object that does not simply age?
Products made using traditional methods, such as vegetable-tanned leather and brass hardware, are not suitable for mass production. These materials undergo unique changes over time that modern products do not, and these changes create a variety of characters depending on the user and the environment. These unique changes are interesting and beautiful. To make the most of these materials, we devise original manufacturing methods, sew by hand, and sometimes hand-twist the thread.
The more you use it, the more you will develop a sense of appreciation and attachment to it. My goal in manufacturing is to continue to create and create such products.
