One of my sons has a favourite leather belt which he has worn out.
He still likes the buckle
Question
Does anyone know where we can get a new belt made (In Hua Hin) with the old buckle?

Re: Making a new Leather Belt
There is a leather smith on Naeb Kehardt Alley between Soi 55 and Soi 57. Closer to Soi 57. On the ocean side of soi. Small shop, he makes shoes, boots, etc. I have a had a belt made with same buckle. I think 1000 Baht.Terry wrote:One of my sons has a favourite leather belt which he has worn out.

Yes, they replaced a zip in a leather jacket for me a few years ago, they did a very neat job and although I don't remember what they charged, it wasn't a lot.SunandFun wrote:There is a leather smith on Naeb Kehardt Alley between Soi 55 and Soi 57.

Re: Making a new Leather Belt
Many of the market stalls will do it as well - a hell of a lot cheaper as well

Re: Making a new Leather Belt
Agree with Bigboy. Find a suitable belt in a market stand and have them change the buckle.
I've done it a couple of times.

Cheap 'leather' isn't really leather and will probably last the best part of six months. Pay a bit more for the quality. Remember that the stalls are making at least thirty percent or more so they paid even less...

Re: Making a new Leather Belt
Tell them what you want, and they will provide the quality you need. I am of the larger variety, and likely to make a mess of cheap leather - the market stalls have been spot on with me.
