Hood Strap Spring Belt - Black

Rolling Dub Trio's leatherworking skills don't end at bootmaking. To pair with their stellar footwear, RDT also produce exceptional small leather goods and accessories like these belts. These are made from a thick British saddle leather from J&FJ Baker in the UK. The leather is quite stiff initially, but over time will relax as it breaks in and takes the shape of your waist.  Antique cars, such as the famous Ford Model-T featured spring straps to hold the hood of the car down. RDT have reproduced these springs for their special belts, fixing them to one side near the buckle for additional flexibility and comfort. The additional mechanical elasticity granted by this spring keep the fit as comfortable as possible throughout the day - whether you've just finished a four course meal or not. Available in even sizes, with 5 oval-shaped holes at 1" intervals. Choose the closest size to your waist - if between sizes, pick the larger of the two.
