Nothing I would make to be honest. Why would a leather crafter build a belt with any materials other than leather? I would not want cork or any other materials in a belt, other than leather. The point of making leather crafts IMO is not to just build something that looks fantastic, but to also make things that are made of the best materials. Nothing other than leather makes the best belts. The belt looks nice, but it is not much better in durability then you can buy at some department store. A belt is not just a decoration we wear, but something we expect to function and last for years.
Извините не соглашусь. По сути Саламандра тут как сердечник между двумя слоями кожи. Им выделяют подиум который только украшает ремень. Я бы добавил ещё тонкую синтетическую стропу. Ремень прошит и в таком виде представляет высокотехнологичное композитное изделие высокой прочности. В классическом костюме будет выглядеть намного лучше чем просто ремень из кожи 3,5 - 4 мм.
The material labeled salamander is in fact leather. It’s a material made from leather milled off the flesh side of the hide mixed with waxes, fats & a latex binder. The leather on the outer part of the belt, the grain side, adds beauty & toughness/durability. This leather however is susceptible to stretching. The core with the Salamander leather has properties that actually inhibit stretching making this type of belt sturdier. Are there sturdier belts made from 1-ply construction? Yes of course. But not all sturdy belts have the same aesthetic properties and this maker is using actual knowledge of leather crafting to make an aesthetically pleasing belt that retains durability.

Этот пластиковый элемент портит этот прекрасный ремень.
Thanks for your comment
