Does anyone know where bootmakers source their brass buckles

[scottnem]

I'm currently looking to replace the buckle of my pair of engineer boots, and i've been looking online for this type of buckle where it's rectangular, flat, and has a roller.

I can't seem to find anything similar online from typical leather hardware stores. Does anyone have any idea where to find them, preferably in antiqued brass? Thank you

Landco317. Bought some made-in-Taiwan belt buckles from this seller over the past few years. Excellent products, excellent service.

You can also try www.weaverleathersupply.com and tandyleather.com/collections/buckles. They both have large inventories of roller buckles and many types of hardware, snaps, rivets and much more.

Your best option is FUKUROKUJU from japan, he made excellent vintage repro buckles.
