EDIT: NO MORE CARD WALLETS LEFT

With Fathers Day around the corner, we have decided to offer a great deal on our Australian made leather belt once again.
The last time we had these on offer our website had a melt down, so we've made some changes in the hope this doesn't happen again :)

We are having this sale a little early as last time we spent weeks producing more belts and we don't want anyone missing out on a great Father Day gift.
We have around 50 units in each size and colour. Popular sizes 32 - 38 we have produced plenty of extras.

For orders of 3 or more belts, we will be giving a free leather slimline card wallet (chosen at random, not Aus made).
This is strictly limited to the first 143 orders and will be on a first come first served basis.
I will update this post once the wallets are gone.

From the previous deal:

I have two great offers on Australian made leather belts (imported buckles & rivets).

Straps are cut, clicker pressed and burnished in Springvale with resizing, skiving and buckle assembly finished in our warehouse in Dingley Village. We use leather sourced from a few of Australia's remaining tanneries and now New Zealand too. (sign up to out newsletter- we have some awesome news coming up!)

We have changed the design from the belts offered in the past.
We no longer use a separate retainer for the buckle. Instead the belt is a single long strap of leather that loops around the buckle.
This has made producing them much easier and has allowed us to keep costs down.

I have two different full grain leather finishes available:

Semi analine [SKU: 205] Limited Stock
This is the same leather from car seats, except it has not been skived down so it remains at a full 3.5mm thickness.

Oil pull-up [SKU: 121 & 122]
These are vegetable oil infused leather belts. NO AZO + NO CHROMIUM for those who may be sensitive to common tanning chemicals
These are known as hunter leather belts, they are supposed to show signs of wear and scratches.

Belts are 39mm wide and have removable buckles. Measurements are taken to the middle hole.

I've made taking advantage of these offers as easy as possible. All you need to do is add the products you want to the cart and the cart will automatically apply discounts depending on the quantity.
Do not use the "express checkout" option, this skips the section where the discount is applied.

Free shipping Australia wide
International shipping is calculated at checkout.

Sign up to our newsletter - we have some really exciting news about more Australian Made leather belts!

Thanks!

          I've bought belts from one of this seller's previous deals. they are very good. I have a lot of products from saddleback leather in the states too, and although they're not quite to that standard, they're extremely close for a lot less money.

        • raydragon on 14/08/2018 - 14:12

          @closethedeal:
          I bought a couple last time. The belts themselves are decent leather, no issues there and the buckles are good enough for my use, don't need anything fancy for Trade Use. I did have the Belt loop on one of them come apart very quickly, ie within days. It's only held together by a couple of staples but I pinched one off another belt to replace it.
          The Only other thing I noticed is that it did stretch pretty quickly. I'd love to be able to say that I lost enough weight to be able to changed notches but the reality is I was already on the shortest size of the length I bought and I ended up having to add another hole to reduce the size even Further. It appears to have stretched roughly an inch over the length of the Belt, maybe a little bit more.

        @closethedeal, Troy Hunt said you should be using HTTPS everywhere, as someone can do a man-in-the-middle attack, modify your shopping page and redirect the customers to their own payment site. Here is an example of what he has to say: https://www.troyhunt.com/im-sorry-you-feel-this-way-natwest-…

        • LeVuHoang on 24/08/2018 - 20:27

          So before you enter your card details, you have to check what site address and url are.
          Even the whole site has ssl, if customers are lazy to confirm before payment, they are still having a same issue.
          Customers can ignore warnings about invalid certification.
          Moreover, attackers can use https strip technique to convert https to http and redirect to their site.
          Therefore, customers are the one who takes responsibility with their details. Https at checkout might enough.
          Https for the whole site can free your mind but it will cost server performance.

        Ordered 2 hours ago - I have my paypal receipt but don't have one from closethedeal.

      • Q3211 on 25/08/2018 - 14:13

        Got my belts today. I am quite happy with them.
        A couple of notes.
        -When I picked my parcel up from AusPost, the parcel was torn. Huge hole on the side. I would advise using bubble wrap or a stronger parcel bag in the future. I was surprised the free wallet didn't fall out!
        -The belt sizes seem a bit off. I ordered 34s (and they are marked as such) but they fit as 32s. Maybe advertise sizes to be smaller or shift your sizes by one? So you sell your 34s as 32s etc.

        Overall super happy with them. Would 100% buy again. A few others have had some issues with the right belts being sent and the cut. I hope you can get these sorted out soon. Look forward for more bargains from you!

    Do you have any dressier belts with a more narrow width and buckle?

    • Associatedclosethedeal @ Close The Deal on 14/08/2018 - 10:03
      +3

      Not yet. Im working on it.
      Dressier belts need dressier buckles and im not able to find cost effective ones here in Aus. Im planning a trip overseas to source a range of buckles in 32mm, 35mm and 39mm widths.
      The plan is to then sell straps and buckles separately and we will assemble here before dispatch.

      Sign up to our newsletter we have news about this and other belts coming soon.

        Any plans to source fully adjustable ones (the one with tracks)?

        • Associatedclosethedeal @ Close The Deal on 14/08/2018 - 10:31
          +2

          not at this stage. The track need to be embedded into the leather and fixed well with stitching or glue. we dont have suitable machinery or know-how to do it at the moment :)

        Is there any chance you can have the buckles made locally as well?

      • binary01 on 14/08/2018 - 18:14

        32mm would be perfect. I'd place an order if so.

    I bought some belts in the last sale. Leather is nice and seems high quality (in my limited experience with rating leather belts). I took the buckle off immediately and replaced it with a buckle from a cracked sandwiched/cardboard/glued/bonded leather 'David jones' style belt. The provided buckle didn't suit the corporate look, but it would be fine with jeans/tradie use.

    I've been wearing the ClosetheDeal belt as my work-pants belt for every workday for the last 4 months. Easily worth the money I paid.
    It isn't as 'polished' shinny black as other fashion belts, but you can tell that from the photos on their website.

    • NiteMice on 14/08/2018 - 10:35

      This is probably a dumb question, but how did you remove the buckle?

      I have a few old, wreaked "David Jones" style belts, and they seem really easy to swap the leather out of, because they just have a spring-loaded clasp, but these belts don't seem to.

      • Ametric on 14/08/2018 - 10:51

        form their website "3. Removable buckle: Leather Craft Australia' belt buckles are attached using belt screws. This allows you to remove the buckle and replace it with one of you favourites."

  • imnotarobot on 14/08/2018 - 10:52

    I've spent so much money on sh*tty belts, I've been meaning to buy a proper one.
    Bought three- one 30 and two 32. I'm trying to gain weight. It's difficult. So these three should do me for a while! I have so many broken, poor quality belts… Thanks OP!

    OP, while I like the leather, just wondering if you have any buckles that look "professional" for the office look?

    • joelmuzz on 14/08/2018 - 11:15

      You can just buy buckles on eBay or anywhere.
      From cheapies which look ok but are weak, to one which will last a lifetime.
      Also recycle from broken fake leather belts.

  • RichardMelbourne on 14/08/2018 - 11:03

    Thanks OP, just placed an order.

  • hetzjagd on 14/08/2018 - 11:14

    The buckles don't really suit the style of clothes I wear.

    Off topic but I want more newfrog belt deals. Bought 4 for very cheap a few years ago viz ozbargain and they've lasted a really long time. The buckle on one of them can be a bit of a pain to release to undo the belt which has got the better of me frustration-wise once or twice, but overall the value has been great. Several times daily Ozbargainer - I'm fairly sure there hasn't been a deal for belts from newfrog in a long long time. Should probably be pm'ing a rep instead of adding this comment but maybe someone will suggest a similar value/style alternative

    • joelmuzz on 14/08/2018 - 11:15

      They are intended to be swappable, it unscrews.

      • hetzjagd on 14/08/2018 - 11:18

        Then I gotta buy new buckles!

        Only one of the newfrog ones has got heavy/visible wear and tear so I only have the one buckle to use at the moment.

  • Aaroninau on 14/08/2018 - 11:14

    How do we get replacement belt screws? I've lost two on my belts (luckily not from the same belt). Had the belts 1-2yrs and can vouch for their quality. Recommended.

    • spaceflight on 14/08/2018 - 13:38

      Somewhere like Bunnings should sell the right screw.

      While you are there I added thread lock to my belts to stop that happening.

    • Associatedclosethedeal @ Close The Deal on 23/08/2018 - 10:23

  • jdogg on 14/08/2018 - 12:44

    So if I get the belt and it's too big for me, can I take off the buckle cut the belt down and reattach the buckle?

    • INFIDEL on 14/08/2018 - 12:47

      Yes. I ordered belt a bit long due to availability last time (check sizing on site), but just unscrewed buckle, cut off surplus leather, punched new hole for buckle bolt - next to perfect.👍

      • Associatedclosethedeal @ Close The Deal on 14/08/2018 - 12:54
        +1

        Exactly. Thats how we resize belts if we run out of any smaller size.
        With the exception that we use a die and clicker press to get the holes lined up.

        • INFIDEL on 14/08/2018 - 12:56
          +1

          I used offcut to line up leather holepunch for accurate placement. Couldn't have been easier. Took about 1 minute.

          So unscrew buckle, cut off surplus leather, lay offcut over belt end - use the hole for new hole position. I just punched through hole in offcut.

          Much neater than punching new hole at end of string of holes on too long belt.

      • AJW on 14/08/2018 - 16:59

        The sizing guide was spot on - I followed the guide here from the last deal:
        http://www.closethedeal.com.au/how-to-choose-the-right-belt-…

        They all fit on the middle hole, so I have a few inches to gain or lose and they will still fit.

        I was the guy you sent the wrong size to - but you also sent me a return satchel sticker the same day and then resent me the correct size within a few days. You made an honest mistake but fixed it immediately and without any fuss :)

      • yphuongd on 14/08/2018 - 17:05

        Hi closethedeal, just bought two and then realised I got the wrong size (size 30) as I my pants size is 30. Any chance that I can exchange them to size 32 or 34?

  • bbqandbargains on 14/08/2018 - 14:45

    Is it worth applying leather conditioner/polish on these from time to time?

      +1

      SKU's 121 and 122 are bridle leather so any wax based conditioner will do. I dont think you will need it for a few years. SKU 205 can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid oil based leather cleaners, it wont damage the leather but will most likely change the colour.
