B.Belt – Olam + Mousseline

B.Belt


For more than a century, B.Belts have been handmade in Germany, preserving a long family heritage and tradition. The company was founded more than 100 years ago by Phillip Bazlan, first as a saddler and then as a leather goods maker when Bazlen's son, Max, took over in the 20th century. In the 1970s, Bazlen's grandsons introduced the handcrafted nail belts that are now the signature of the brand. B.Belt's premium leathers come from Italy, Spain, the Netherlands and Germany to create each belt. Each belt passes through the hands of approximately 25 skilled workers. Glovers, saddlers and fine bag makers all work to create each belt. Their skills are revealed in the saddler's elements; the seams are sewn by hand to secure the clasps.
