Out of curiosity, how does natural leather do in the rain?

Good question, haven't had any of my natural tan leather items go under a real downpour. I think it would be overall unaffected

 

[navetsea]

I think they be just fine like how leather patch of your jeans survive multiple washing, but lookwise it would turn blochy and wild when dirt combined with rain penetrate the leather. I frequently dry my wet hands on the back of my pants after washing them, and lately since i wear belt it wet the belt and leave blochy dark spot from my wet hand that doesnt go away.

Another belt from 2012, I think the one I posted earlier is actually his younger brother from 2011. The amount of wear time is probably about the same however, give or take; this leather was always waxier and resistant to shiny patina.

Here is an older belt, but with much less wear, in fact just started summer last year.

Who made the buckle?

Rain and water has never done any harm to my Lofgren boots, although they are chromexcell tanned.

Who made the buckle?

Alabama Damascus according to the belt maker.

Thanks!
Very nice buckle

 

[Captain Sensible]

Thanks. Must say though it required a bit of rework; the underside edges too sharp, perhaps you can see the effect on the leather over time before I rounded them off

The parallel scratches?

 

[Captain Sensible]

Well, these are from when I tried to round off the sharp edges with a grinder/dremel type tool but without achieving a good finish. Prior to that the whole edge was scraping across the width of the belt - this also happened with a sugarcane belt I have but to a much lesser degree as the buckle is not tough as damascus.

Thanks for the info!

My Tanner Goods key holder after probably 5 years. It seems to have saturated in coloring since last 3 years.

These are my natural leather wallet and belt clip after (2 months?) In my back pocket with 2 brand new jeans bleeding on it while being worn wet shrink to fit and perhaps the knot and the run off of the arcuate thread inside the pocket making that chewed up impression on it
