The Good Belt

Designed to work with all your outfits.

Slim enough for a suit, sturdy enough for raw denim, the Good Belt pulls together any outfit with just one tug at the waist. 3cm wide, cut from smooth leather and featuring a classy buckle, it ticks every box.

• 3cm width: the optimal size to fit through any belt loop.
• Smooth, strong leather: no need to break it in, it’s good to go from day one and for many decades.
• Understated Italian buckle: refined but no way flimsy, durable without being bulky, it does its job well without stealing the spotlight. Style and function in perfect harmony.

Expect it to age like fine wine, and we're not just saying that because we're based in Bordeaux. Every element is conceived to get better with age, here's how:

• Vegetable-tanned Italian leather: this leather wasn't chosen by accident. It comes from Lo Stivale, our Italian partner who's mastered the art of vegetable tanning. This natural process uses plants, bark and berries instead of chemicals. The result? Your leather develops a beautiful patina, looks better with age, and will last for years without complaint.
• Hand-finished by Orca: assembled in Brittany by passionate craftspeople with an eye for detail.
• Rock-solid buckle: not actual rock but zamac with a silver finish. For the curious, that's an alloy of zinc, aluminum, magnesium and copper. You don't need to be a chemistry professor to understand it's built to last. And visually, it's rather easy on the eyes. Understatement of the year.
• Thick stitching thread: given its thickness, it's closer to rope than thread. But let's not split hairs. What matters is that it'll never snap on you.

Third time, just as lucky.

This belt sums up what we love doing at Asphalte: co-creating with our customers, choosing the right partners, going deep on quality to make exceptional products that surpass your expectations. We’ve worked with Orca, a family-run workshop in Brittany, and Lo Stivale, our trusted Italian tanners, since we launched The Good Belt. Three versions later, its DNA remains unchanged. Top quality make, meticulous finishings, and an item you’re going to be reaching for for years to come. Good by name, good by nature.
