1791 Gunleather premium holster belts are made with the full-grain, 14-ounce leather from the topmost layer of hide. We do not sand or treat the leather beyond tanning and dyeing – processes which strengthen the hide and produce a product for working applications. Fashion belts, on the other hand, may be made from genuine leather or suede, but they are treated to make them softer, causing them to degrade more quickly when bearing a load. In essence, it’s like the difference between handbag leather and sturdy horse bridle leather.
