Old Bull Leather Belt

Fast delivery, top quality leather work, thank you.

Ordering online is difficult since you can't try on the belt in advance to know for certain which size is perfect for you. Before placing my order, I read a lot of the reviews, studied the size chart, communicated with Saddleback customer service, and even asked AI chatbots for advice.

The consensus was that these belts are made much longer than most, so one should order a much smaller size than normal. I usually wear pants with a 32" to 33" inch waist. I started out trying the 28" belt, then the 30" belt. Both were too small because after buckling, little to no tail was left at all. The 32" Old Bull Leather Belt was a perfect fit and allowed for an 1.5" tail when buckled on the 7th hole, i.e., the fit and look was just right. And, if I eat two cheeseburgers for lunch and have to loosen to hole #6, there's still at least 1" of tail, so it still looks good. Of course, every human is built differently, but if you're taking a stab in the dark like I did, my best advice is: order the belt size of your usual pant waist size. Start with that and you'll probably nail it on the first try without having to incur the headache, time, or expense of multiple exchanges.

It took me a couple of tries, but I finally found the perfect size. And like every other Saddleback item I own, I absolutely love it. This belt evokes sensory euphoria. It looks great, it feels great, it smells great. I draw the line at eating it but I bet if I did I'd even claim it tastes great. And no, it makes no noise, but if it did it would likely be one of the sweetest sounds I've ever heard.

I bought this belt solely for outdoor landscaping work. I guarantee that I'll wear out long before it does. How many products can you say that about?

The best belt I have ever had. Fits perfectly. It does not roll down and I love that the holes are so close together for a perfect fit each time. It gets more worn in each time a I wear it (which is all the time lol). Highly recommended. I also purchase a black version.

This company is way beyond the five star rating I gave it. After fifteen years if use they honored their warranty without a hitch. You got to love them. Thank you Saddleback, We absolutely love you.

Aside from their sheer thickness and rugged aesthetic, I love the narrow hole-spacing on these belts. If anyone is planning to get back into shape, it is motivating to be able to tighten your belt up one notch sooner than later.

So far I've only been wearing it about a week or 2 but it's way better than any other belt I've had. It is a little stiff but it will work itself out as I wear it. I measured my old belt to where I wore it and selected the correct belt for what my current size it. Excellent fit! Last belt I probably have to purchase! Now onto their other items!!!!!

I purchased the Old Bull belt for my dad in the chestnut. As long as I can remember growing up, he has worn the same belt that had become so worn and tattered. It finally broke (was not an SBL belt) This is not something that he would have ever purchased for himself.
This belt is incredible. Thick, super high quality, and sharp looking. It is a timeless classic! I was blown away when this arrived. I mean, it’s just a belt, right? Well, I have never been so impressed with a belt. This thing is awesome and he will never wear through this one! I have a feeling that this one will be passed down to my sons one day! Thank you, SBL!

I purchased this belt close to 20 years ago and has been worn almost daily. My waist size has changed but has been within the same range. The belt just doesn’t die and still looks great. Thank You

I've been wearing saddleback leather belts as long as they've been making them. Fact is, the only reason I had to order a new one is I lost weight and it wouldn't hold my pants up. Nothing wrong with my broken in belt. New belt is the same quality as one from 10 years (or more) ago. Looking forward to breaking this one in over another decade!

This belt is beautiful and solid. Ordered a size smaller than pants size and it fits perfectly.

The best belt full grain belt money can buy. I own 5 different kind of full grain belt but, this one is on different level of quality and craftsmanship. Expensive but worth the cost over longevity.

The belt quality is just great and solid compared to an average full grain belt.The price is expensive but worth every dollar, if can afford it.

I recently picked up the Old Bull Belt and I have to say—this thing is a beast (in the best way possible). The leather is thick, rugged, and know it’ll easily outlast any other belt I’ve owned. It has that rare, solid quality you can literally feel in your hands. I believe this could handle a great deal of abuse I honestly can’t imagine it ever giving out.

I did mess up the sizing when I ordered (completely my fault), but Saddleback’s customer service team was fantastic. They made the exchange for a smaller size incredibly easy and stress-free. It’s clear they stand behind their products and genuinely care about their customers’ satisfaction.

After this experience, I’m completely sold on Saddleback as a brand. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again, and I’ve already recommended the belt to a couple of friends. If you’re looking for gear that’s built to last and backed by real people, this is it.

Saddleback Leather has again delivered the highest quality leather in the 2 belts that I received today! Thank You!

Excellent belt - well made, incredibly thick and tough, perfect fit. Husband is very happy with it!

I’ve always owned cheap belts that fall apart within the year. They’re either too tight or too loose.
I finally splurged on a Full Grain leather belt & do not regret it. It’s a perfect fit. There’s no sagging if you have your pockets stuffed. It’s not too tight where you’re sort’ve in pain to breathe.
The buckle is heavy duty, so it’s got a nice hard latch that’s easy to undo. It’s a thick, solid piece of leather that even smells phenomenal even after wearing it a couple of weeks.
I bought a full grain leather wallet from SaddleBack leather couple months back. That’s what essentially got me to order the belt.
With this company, you’re getting quality USA made products. Definitely worth the money if you want to keep your stuff for a while.

I'm only now writing this review but have had my belt for almost 10 years. I''m an industrial mechanic and often hang tools from my belt or work in damp environments that seem to really soften leather. Previously I used to go through 2 belts a year -going on 10 I can confirm this belt is strong stuff. Over the very long term I will say that the leather stretches a bit to contour to the fit (if you hang mine from a hook it's not straight anymore). I used to buckle it at the 2nd hole, then changed to the 1st, eventually I bored my own '0'th hole which is what I use now. (I'm a little thicker at the waist than I was when I bought the belt so it's definitely the leather stretching out).
I see they now have a note on the product saying it sizes a bit large which was true for me. Looks like they have changed the buckle a bit since then but I'm assuming the belt leather is about the same.

Anyway the belt is still strong as ever and I expect to get another 10 or more years out of it, worst case scenario is I drill another hole further in as it stretches. Even if I ever did wear this thing out someday, I'd happily buy another and settle for 2 belts to last a lifetime.

solid belt, comes quick

I promise you this is the thickest, strongest belt you”ll ever find. I was a bit apprehensive about the price, but completely understand it now. Great belt, in fact ordering another color now.

Solid

Love it. Best belt I have ever owned. Looks great. Will last a lifetime. Exceeded my expectations.

Thank you! Quality material and attention to detail on this belt has me looking forward to seeing the remainder of my order. Saddleback Artisans are the BEST!

Have 3 of these belts in different colors. These are not bullet proof - more like nuclear bomb proof! On the natural I did leave in in the sun for a couple of days to slightly change the color - added a nice light brown patina - just my preference over the natural color it came with. The team at SBL is outstanding to work with!

Love the belt!

Fantastic quality, very rigid, solid

Love this durable belt.
I miss the older version that was 1 3/4" wide though, Worked much better on jeans.

This is an amazingly great belt. The leather is thick and the buckle is overbuilt compared to other buckles. I struggled to choose the color. I wear a black belt normally. I really like the chestnut and dark brown, but I couldn't resist the image of the natural getting darker and developing its own patina over time. I closed my eyes and held my breath while I submitted my order for the natural belt. I have had my belt now for 2 days. What surprised me was how the belt fits using the sizing instructions SBL recommends. My perfect center hole leaves a short end to tuck through the leather belt loop. I'm used to more length coming out past the buckle. But I am glad I chose this size (32). I could go down a hole or 2 or up 1 occasionally. This is the perfect range for me and I am never likely to have it be too long or too short. I know Dave says most people don't change buckles, but for a belt worn with jeans, it is nice to have that option. You cannot change buckles on this belt. It is riveted, but the stainless steel buckle is awesome.

Love my new belt!

I just want to say I have owned this belt for over 10 years and wear it daily in commercial construction and it has never failed or even shown any type of wear to be honest !! Cannot wait to purchase one of the duffles

This is my 4th belt from SBL - quality, finish, and durability are exceptional. Dave and his team nail it as always!!
