Latigo Leather Kilt Belt and Keepers

[Chas]

I too am a fan of Tandy. So far I have only used their pre-made belts (snaps already on). I cut them to size, dye and then add the buckle. I have not attempted anything like your 'from scratch' belt. I am very impressed.

By the way - what is Latigo? I keep meaning to ask, but forget when I get to the shop.

Thanks Chas and Wallace,
It was over near the section with the belt blanks, it comes pre-dyed in the reddish brown color and comes in various widths and lengths. I think it is used making bridles and the like. I made a sporran strap out of it a while back and have been meaning to do this project as to have a matching belt.
The glue is some strong stuff, I made a belt out of military OD webbing a while back and used the glue and sticky back velcro on it ( like most pre made kilt belts do for adjustment ). Once dry I put a few stiches in the corners of the velcro and it holds tight. I did the same with the leather one.
