Kidney belt. Advice and help please.

[Freddie von Rost]

I am looking for a plain, ideally brown leather, kidney belt as all I can find are the new and rather garish motor cycle style type.

Can you help? Any suggestions and advice gratefully received.

Probably there are more practical ways of going about this, but if all else fails Murray Custom Leather in Texas (Google 'em) will make whatever you want and generally use an oil-tanned natural brown leather. They are not cheap, but provide good value for the buck (or pound, in your case) spent.

You can probably find someone to make what you want there in the UK though. Although with the pound-to-dollar exchange rate being so much in your favor, maybe you want to look up Murray..

Morning Mitch,

Just returned from Minorca. Fantastic empty roads, warm balmy days, but fearsome bibs.

Found this on the net.

What do you think?

Hard to say from just an internet drawing/photo. Looks like a good belt to me though.

Probably would be cheaper than ordering from Murray, although with the pound/dollar exchange rate being what it is, might be worthwhile to check with Murray.
