Laser engraving, debossing and foil embossing, blind or coloured. The right method depends on the product and the artwork. If you are not sure, ask us and we will recommend one.
Yes. Send us your artwork and our in-house design team will set it up for the product you have chosen. For corporate orders we send a proof for approval before anything is engraved.

Products and materials
4oz full-grain vegetable-tanned leather from a family-run tannery in Tuscany. Full-grain is the strongest, most durable part of the hide, and vegetable tanning is the slower, traditional method that lets the leather develop character over time.
It gets better. Full-grain vegetable-tanned leather deepens in colour and develops a patina as you handle it. The patina is earned, not applied.
Tan, Dark Brown, Black, Red, Navy, Burgundy and Irish Green. Options vary by product, so check the product page for what is available on each piece.
Yes, refillable by design. A notebook should outlast the paper inside it. Refills are available on the site.
Almost nothing. The leather is vegetable-tanned and given a light aniline finish, which feeds and lightly seals it, so a new piece arrives already conditioned. Nothing needs to be applied to it.
An aniline finish leaves the surface open rather than coated. That is what lets the leather take on colour and patina, and it is also why water, oils and solvents mark it. Keep it away from those where you can, and skip waterproofing sprays and cleaning products, both of which change the colour and the finish. If it gets wet, blot it with a soft cloth and let it dry naturally, away from heat.
After several years, if the leather starts to feel dry, a small amount of Saphir Nappa Cream on a soft cloth is enough. Test it on a hidden area first. Any conditioner will deepen the colour.
Order the waist size you already wear. If you wear a 34" trouser, order the 34". We cut the strap three inches longer than the waist so it fastens on the middle hole, with three holes of adjustment either side.
If you would rather check against a belt you already own, measure it from the end of the strap to the hole you use most, then use the conversion in the size guide on each belt page.
Corporate orders
It is most of what we do. Volume pricing starts at 20 units, branding is included in the price, and you get a dedicated account manager and our in-house design team. Start on the corporate page.
Tell us your deadline and we will confirm what is possible before you commit. Repeat orders move faster because your brand profile and artwork are already set up.
