A remarkable piece: the belt in a vintage look has a solid buckle and is six to eight millimetres thick. The strong Alb buffalo leather keeps its shape, has a pleasant grip and the distinctive grain that is so characteristic of this leather.

This authentic leather is processed exclusively for Heinz Bauer Manufakt. It comes from the Alb buffalo of the local biosphere region and is vegetable-tanned on site with bark, chestnut and mimosa. A hide can hardly be more honest.

Care

Genuine leather is a natural material that gains character over time. Store your piece airy and never in plastic, and protect it from direct heat and prolonged moisture. Let damp leather dry at room temperature, never on a radiator. Treat the leather once or twice per season with a high-quality leather balm. Please leave heavier stains to a specialist leather cleaner.
