Experience and Materials

The owner, Edward Harden, has been hand crafting snake belts for over 40 years and during this time, he has perfected the tanning of snake skins.  Three additional craftsmen have 85 years of combined history with our shop. 

​

the tanning process plays a critical role in the quality of leather. Our belts are made using vegetable tanning, a traditional method that utilizes natural plant materials. This process is eco-friendly compared to chemical tanning methods, as it is less harmful to the environment and produces no toxic waste. Working with the premier tanneries in the United States, the leather used undergoes a careful process that enhances its durability and aesthetic appeal. Veg-tanned leather is not only sturdy but also environmentally sustainable, a preference that aligns well with the growing consumer demand for sustainable products.

This combination of quality tanned snake skins and top grain leather have proven to make durable and beautiful belts lasting for years.
