When it comes to accessories, belts are a cornerstone of finishing off your look in our opinion here at The Coolector and you can’t beat a well-crafted leather one when it comes to both style and durability. The guys at American Bench Craft have got one of the coolest line-ups of men’s leather belts we’ve seen and if you’re wanting to add a touch of class to your outfits this summer, they should definitely be one of your first ports of call.


American Bench Craft are a brand born from a conversation around a campfire and they were founded with the mission to manufacture top-quality accessories that are purpose-built to withstand the rigours of everyday use. An area in which they positively excel is with their ace selection of men’s leather belts and we check out 6 of their finest offerings below:

Working Man’s Belt
The Working Man’s Belt is made from full-grain leather that is tough enough to withstand the stresses of everyday work. It will start out stiff and rigid but will break in over time to form a comfortable and custom fit. You can pick the leather and buckle colour to match your sense of style.

Brigadier Belt
The Brigadier Belt from the guys at American Bench Craft is not for everyone and is recommended for those that require a heavy-duty work belt. At 1.75” wide, this belt is nearly indestructible and ideally suited for carrying multiple sheaths and holsters. And looks good whilst doing it.

Badlands Belt
A favourite of ours here at The Coolector, the Badlands Belt will turn heads aplenty. Crafted with a robust basket weave pattern that is pressed into the leather with heat and pressure. This creates a deep, long-lasting impression that will not fade or peel. Not to mention one mighty cool looking belt.

Double Prong Belt
Another no-nonsense performer from American Bench Craft. The Double Prong Belt is the ultimate work belt crafted from premium full-grain leather and a heavy-duty buckle that offers a rugged secure fit ready to withstand rigorous everyday activities. Make the belt your own with your choice of both buckle and colour.
