Description

The Tough Tire belt is made from reclaimed bicycle tires and shaped by hand in Gouda. The rubber keeps its original structure, which gives the belt a strong surface and a solid feel.

At 4 cm wide, it has presence without being overdesigned. It works well with denim and everyday outfits and is built to handle regular wear. The material was made to endure pressure and friction. That strength stays with it.

Each belt is delivered extra long so it can be adjusted to your exact size. You can choose to cut it yourself with the included instructions, or have it custom-sized before shipping.

Small variations in texture can occur because every tire has its own history. The structure stays consistent, the surface details differ slightly.

Who is this for

• For people who want a strong everyday belt that feels solid and reliable

Out of the ordinary

Because each belt is cut from a different section of bicycle tire, surface texture and small marks vary slightly per piece.
