I've always liked the North American title with the original strap. It was a unique and old school look. It almost felt like a boxing belt by design. The black title is beautiful however. It feels more like a world title design with the thinned out black strap. My mind immediately went to the Undisputed title belt design.
@@yvngcurlyy-4238 lol what i ment by that is they need to contact him to do the leather work on thier belts especially having the same type of style that paul just did with the NA title the smaller strap is way better
I definitely like the thinned out version a lot more. I thought the TV version was too wide when it was first introduced. I think a thinned out maroon strap would be cool too
As soon as I saw the custom my first thought was "I want to see that cut/design in the red". Was glad to hear you say the same thing. I love the color of the original (though I'd like to see it a tad darker) but the strap is just WAAAAAY too big. It sounds like finally someone's talking about making the version I've wanted to see since the belt came out.
Thinned out but a more amber burgundy color would be superb. I think you could probably get away with a slightly longer strap and keep the 2x7 Females too but the snapbox tooling would look great too
I usually get non logo title belts but the NXT North American Championship belt on the traditional thinned out strap is amazing with the black, I would want one in my collection with this tyke re-leather
The new leather looks great and the thin strap is better but the north American title is suppose to be an old school title and the old titles had weirdly big straps. By that logic the actual one represents it better
Pro Wrestling Championship Belt making wasn't an art during the 60s and 70s. Traditional trophy makers were contracted to make pro wrestling championship belts. It was Reggie Parks and Dave Millican that turned belt making into a serious craft.
As much as I love how the north American Championship looks like now, I gotta say it looks better with a black strap. Idk I've always loved how the IC belt looks like with it's current plates but with a black strap as well.
Got rid of the tip too. Remember him saying he wasn't the biggest fan of the tip haha. I d'know i kind of like the unique look the belt has with the wider belt strap. Don't mind the red strap either, think it works better than the cruiserweight belt with the purple which actually does look much better on a black strap. .
black looks amazing, but if you're gunna try slimmer strap with maroon/brown, please try TV accurate strap with black. please (that's what i would prefer)
I think the Black belt looks better but I would like to see a Dark blue strap with a silver plating instead of gold for the main aesthetic and replacing the nickel plated parts with gold plating it would look pretty good for a mid card title, because with its current color way and overall design I think it looks better than the NXT title
I would like to see that belt done up with the somewhat same color strap but slighty darker with a cut that is closer to the plates that boarder line follows the tooling that boarders the plates does that make sense? like partial circle coming down to the gromets around the gromets and out over the side plates and straight across to the end with a silver or gold tip with two 2x8 snap boxes on either side of the strap, Idk I think that would look absolutely killer that's just me though.
@@PaulMartinBelts Paul how much will it cost me for you to releather? I'm in the states and would like to know which option will be easier for both of us. Should I ship the belt to you or just have you acquire the plates from WWE shop and I just pay you for the entire cost of belt plus releather.
Sorry that will be updated in the coming weeks hopefully. If you'd like to purchase the black strap right now though I have one finished and available with no wait time. Email me at paulmartinbelts@gmail.com if you're interested.
The thinner cut strap makes that title look 10 times better.
And 10 times less original
@@dark_antihero it's bulky and awkward to hold the TV accurate one. Plus I hate thick straps like that
SO MUCH BETTER. Thats how it should have been made.
Treditional black style looks really good. The belt looks balanced

Paul this belt looks way better then the original wwe really needs to contact you to make their re leather
Their belts are already real leather my guy😭

The black strap is a game changer. I love it.
I already liked the original but man, that redesigned black strap version is GORGEOUS.
Thank you!
Love your redesign belt
It’s amazing how much better that belt looks on a traditional strap.
It looks fantastic already but it’s even better with a black strap
The black strap gives it that classic traditional feel. I prefer it over the red wider one
Thinned looks better. Also looks really nice in black. Curious to c the red tho
I love the black thin strap better, I'd love to see the red thin strap as well
I definitely like the thinned out version a lot more. I thought the TV version was too wide when it was first introduced. I think a thinned out maroon strap would be cool too
I'd also love to see the Raw & Smackdown belts with the thin strap red & blue
That black looks SO MUCH BETTER!!!!
The Black Is Awesome
The black tighter cut looks killer!
wow this custom black strap is SICK
The black soooooo sweet
love the thinned out black strap...awesome work.
i think putting the burgundy color on the black strap would look really cool

That I really like the black strap North American tile because the one on tv was more than just a different color
The black strap is GORGEOUS!! Pls make a send out strap of it
These black straps are available as send outs now. They will also be uploaded onto my website soon.
AWESOME!! I plan on getting a North America title shortly so it’d be amazing to get a send out strap. How much would it be in USD? I’m in the US
The black straps are $320 + $50 shipping to the US with a turn around time of about 4 weeks.
Ok cool. Tyvm
I love the thinner strap so much better but with a gold tip always make it look good.
That black strap look so much better
I like the thin out black strap
The black strap looks hella good
the black strap is perfect!
Thank you very much!

Are you 15? Look at the older titles from 70s and early 80s...
@@elikanoai1954 exactly. Small center and side plates and bigger straps

You need to show it to WWE... HUNTER WOULD LOVE IT... IT WOULD BE PERFECT FOR ADAM COLE
Yeah. Hunter might love it.
As much as I love how the north American Championship looks like now, I gotta say it looks better with a black strap. Idk I've always loved how the IC belt looks like with it's current plates but with a black strap as well.
Makes you wonder why they opted to go with the wider cut strap in the first place. Same can be said for the penny tags too.
The black leather looks good.
While I like the wider red strap on the North American belt, the thinner black one looks great.
Both cuts are nice but what about adding a gold tip to the one with the black strap?
The black one looks so much better
Its great looking but im not sure im completely sold on the black. The cut is much better though
I like that style but wish it was maroon I can’t wait till I buy that belt

Much better, black strap gives character. How much?
I want two of them tag team partner belts mwe
You should make that strap in red(maroon) to kind of match the original belt
very cool..... all WWE Belts looks better on black. I hope the IC Title goes back to black.
Hey paul just wanted to ask if you could restore us spinner plates thanks man keep up that awesome leather work
That custom next north America belt is better and we want that belt
Man that is fucking awesome. I need this and the Wwe uk title belt and the world heavyweight of course
Fantastic work 👏🏻👏🏻
Much better than standard belt.
The black belt is way better then the original red one :)

What happened to the tight cut strap for the North American??
Please do your custom cut in red.
As it happens I literally just filmed a video this morning of a custom cut version in red. This will be up on the channel later today!
The black pops
I want the thinner version for mines. How much? My preferred color is the brown color of the original Flair NWA big gold belt.
Do you have a store sell wwe belts
I would like to see that belt done up with the somewhat same color strap but slighty darker with a cut that is closer to the plates that boarder line follows the tooling that boarders the plates does that make sense? like partial circle coming down to the gromets around the gromets and out over the side plates and straight across to the end with a silver or gold tip with two 2x8 snap boxes on either side of the strap, Idk I think that would look absolutely killer that's just me though.
Will you make a video show showing the thinner belt in the maroon color?
Yes, should be done soon!

Not a fan of this belt but the black strap makes it look 100x better
Is the black title for sale?
Nice
I don't know if this is an unpopular opinion but I like the tv accurate 1 better
I think the black narrow strap is better
black is WAY WAY better
I prefer the custom title
Black cut.
The redesigned strap is way better
The black one looks more better
Thin strap is 100% better, would like nicer as a 5 plate belt.
On the actual belt the female snaps on the other side
Traditional black
I like the black strap better than that it looks better and flows better it's a decent quality built the red thick one it's really awkward dude
The thin black strap is way better.
