With its narrow width and silver-coloured galvanized brass buckle, this two-layer belt is perfect for elegant fabric pants or skirts. Worn at waist height or loosely on the hips, it also adds the finishing touch to a dress or long blouse. Kreis uses vegetable-tanned calfskin from Italy for the upper leather. As it is aniline-dyed, the natural grain remains visible. The lining leather is made from undyed, pit-tanned cowhide from Germany.

Founded in 1963 in Offenbach by Erich Kreis, the Hessian leather manufacturer Kreis became specialised in belts early on. The firm is run today by Bernd Kreis, the son of the founder. He uses only full-grained leather: classic box calf and traditionally pit-tanned cow leather from Germany, saddle leather from England and the legendary Shell Cordovan horse leather from the Horween® tannery in Chicago. Kreis is one of the very few manufacturers of hand-made leather belts which still cultivates the time-consuming art of triple layer belt construction.

Staining of light-coloured clothing, furniture and other objects is possible.
