Product Description
Fireman's Quick Release Oak Bark Bridle Leather Belt 1 1/2" (37mm) wide (Pictured in Bakers Australian Nut colour) with solid brass buckle and keeper loop. This unique Quick Release Belt, the first one of its’ kind was made by me in the mid-nineties, when by chance I discovered an old 1” pattern in a market in Ludlow, England. Snapping it up for pennies, I remembered it owed its origins to the firemen of yesteryear when during the 'Great Fire of London' I believe, early fire tenders equipped with this type of buckle on straps retaining the coiled leather hoses, utilised its quick release mechanism to free their hoses with speed. This single hand opening facility has obvious and numerous advantages for a trouser belt and having taken this early pattern to the buckle makers in Walsall I asked them initially to recreate them in solid brass 1 ¼” and 1 ½” versions with distinct keepers to match. Now reaching almost iconic status it is still available here from it’s originator and made especially to measure for you!!

Reviews
I ordered this belt from Tim and initially we had a very helpful conversation closely followed by him sending me detailed instructions as to how make sure the belt was the correct size.
I followed these , he double checked with me and l ordered the belt.
I asked for closer hole spacing and this was easily sorted.
A lead time of Approx. 10 working days was given.
Sure enough the timing was pretty much spot on.
The belt arrived in a very sturdy , very presentable box in a proper padded delivery bag.Nothing cheap about the postage & packing.
The belt is a joy to behold, a proper solid both fit for purpose but also workmanlike in an elegant way.
I shall be ordering another style of belt very soon.
