new TANNER bifold and belt

[siznam]

I know it seems retarded - that's just the standard additional rate we charge for anything shipped internationally on our website, cause figuring different shipping rates for all continents was a major headache....

but yeah, since we're just doin this thing for superfuture people, go ahead and give me your shipping address and we'll cut a couple bucks off for n.american customers...

anyone interested in ordering a belt or bifold can email me at [email protected] with your name, address, and style/size...we'll invoice ya through paypal...

Aw man, $5 more to Canada, but also $5 more to Belgium? Shipping price to Canada is probably no different than to USA (or very very minimal for a belt)..

Also, are you taking orders and shipping now? How do I go about paying

[khaltire]

people always think its way cheaper to send to canada and it is if you use priority, but that doesn't have tracking, etc. EMS is the same for me everywhere.

Global priority DOES have a tracking #.. Starts with LC...

I just bought mine, came to $60 to Canada.. They are shipping Dec 10th for anyone thats wondering

[TragicBliss]

If you made a thin belt (say about an inch) in that leather I would be all over it.

[siznam]

the standard belt width is 1.5in, but we can customize 'em from 1in - 1.7in...so short answer is yeah, we can do 1in.

[Contingency Plan]

Sent an e-mail with my order - looking forward to receiving this

[khaltire]

Any word on this, I emailed to confirm shipment but I havent heard.. whats going on?

[stuntastic]

I need that wallet... Now.

Hey, what material are the buckle and keeper? ... I hope you dont say that its nickle-plated...

if its pure nickle or pure steel I'll definitely buy one

yes so uhh - you avoided that question quite well ...

why chrome ? ew

[CaliStyle]

hmmm interesting

[thelion1856]

yeah was wondering if they would be arriving soon? i got the wallet and belt. also i ordered a bag from your site.

[siznam]

sorry man, wasn't trying to avoid the question... you're right, the hardware nickel plated.

The hardware isn't chrome - there's a big difference between that and nickel plated. Chrome finish is a cheap [construction and price point] way to imitate a nickel plated finish. It chips relatively easy, and looks like shit after a month or two.

The reason we choose to use nickel plated over solid nickel is two reasons:

1. the difference in durability and appearance is nil. we use the same hardare that's used for rugged, commercial saddles and military bags. we've wear tested these same buckles on our messenger bags for over a year with no sign of degredation in appearance or function.

2. all of our products are sourced and produced in limited numbers by hand here in N. America. one of our main goals has always been to offer unique, functionally sound and utilitarian products at an affordable price. at this price we couldn't construct a belt with a solid nickel buckle, nor could we source them. but if someone wants to switch out the buckle for something else, all they have to do is unsnap the belt and throw something else in there.

hope that helps to clarify!

[siznam]

the belts and wallets ordered have been constructed and almost ready to ship...our order of hardware was delayed a few days, and should arrive wedneday - so all items should get shipped out via priority mail late wednesday/early thursday. sorry about the slight delay to everyone that ordered product!

anyone with q's can hit me up at [email protected]

[watchman]

i really like the belt, but wish it had a bronze buckle instead of the steel. would be interested in one when they drop for retail.

[thelion1856]

thanks man, i cant wait to get my belt, wallet and bag. its like waiting for a drug shippment to come in!

You should make some stuff in Cordovan.

I could look at the ones on the Horween website all day long.

[Guest doubletap]

the belt looks nice, I like the pointy end.

I would buy it if it had a better buckle, this one looks too common, and I would also like it if the buckle was the keeper since i like my shit to hang out over the belt loop on my denim.

[dk7m]

I got my belt and complimentary card holder and buckle. Thanks again!

Hey Siznam, I might be overlooking something, but i think you still havent said what metal the buckle is made of.....yes, its nickel plated...but nickel plated what??...steel?...brass?...bronze?...copper?...chrome?.....I need to know these things as itll affect the long term appearance after the buckle starts to wear/age...thanks!

[shaonizzit]

"The reason we choose to use nickel plated over solid nickel is two reasons"

maybe it's made of solid nickle??

[Contingency Plan]

Has anyone got their belt yet? Still waiting for mine (UK).

[02///M3]

I got mine a couple of days ago. It came with an extra buckle and a tanner card holder as an apology for the shipping delay. It fits well and seems like it will wear well also.

Its hard to tell exactly what that means....nickle plating over solid nickel doesnt make much sense...but im no expert

[Contingency Plan]

^By "over" he means "instead of". You're right that it's slightly ambiguous. Hope I get a complementary card holder and buckle as well

[shaonizzit]

I see what you're saying now...............I agree.

[dk7m]

Damn, I ordered a sz34 belt thinking that it'd fit for my 32 waist but it ended up being a bit big No fault on Tanner's part, though, and it's still a beautiful belt

[emaze]

Got my belt & I'm loving it... along with the leather card holder & extra belt buckle...

Buy a belt punch from Tandy Leather:

..problem solved.

[siznam]

hey, sorry about the delayed response...

anyways, we use nickel plated brass because over time it's much more resistant to rust.
