Choosing Your Sleepy Cowboy Custom Belt

First, please give us your name and contact information.

Now, go through and build your Custom Belt.

Belt Type: First, decide what type of belt you want. The Heavy Gun/Work Belt is two layers of leather glued and stitched together, equaling approximately 1/4 inch thick. The Moderate Casual/Dress Belt is two layers of leather glued and stitched together, equaling approximately 3/16 inch thick. Light Casual/Dress Belt is a single layer of leather approximately 1/8 inch thick.

Belt Width: Now decide how wide you want your belt. Some widths will limit buckle options.

Belt Length: Follow these guidelines to measure for a perfect fitting belt.

Measuring a well-fitting belt you already own is the best way to determine your belt size. Using a tape measure, measure from the inside edge of the buckle on your current belt (Point A) to the hole you normally use while carrying your firearm (Point B). If you also wear your belt when you are not carrying your firearm, you may wish to give us a measurement between the two Point B measurements. For example, if Point B measures 37′′ when you ARE carrying, and 35′′ when you are NOT carrying, you may wish to order your belt at 36′′. Belts are measured in inches and you should round to the nearest inch. If you measure 36 inches, you will want to purchase a size 36 belt. See Illustration below.

Don’t have a belt that fits well? You can simply “add 2′′ to your off-the-rack trouser size. For example, if you wear a 36” waist trouser, then a 38 belt size should be about right. Most will find this simple formula works best for pants worn at a traditional height–close to the natural waistline. Or you can measure for belt size by threading a flexible tape measure through the belt loops of your trousers. It’s important to stand in a relaxed, natural position–do not push out or suck in your belly when taking the measurement. The measuring tape should be snug but not tight. Measure in inches and round to the nearest inch.

This belt will have a break-in period. Please remember that even though these belts will be stiffer than a typical department store belt, you’ll still need to adequately tighten your belt to minimize sag and stabilize your firearm.

Decide if you want the inside of the belt grain out or rough-out.  On a double-layer belt, when the inside (side facing your pants) piece of leather is glued on, it can be glued grain (smooth side) out or rough (flesh side) out. Smooth side out makes putting your belt on or taking it off easier. Rough side out keeps the belt in place better. Not applicable for single layer belts.

Base Color: Choose what color you want your belt dyed.

Accent Color: If desired, you can have an accent color around the borders. Before you choose the Accent Color you must choose the Primary Color.

No accent colors are available with your Primary Color selection.

Stitching: Decide if you want extra stitching. If you're ordering a single-layer belt, you have the option of no stitching, 1 line, or 2 lines of stitching. If you're ordering a double-layer belt, you have the option of 1 or 2 lines of stitching.

Stitching Color: Choose the color of thread you want your belt stitched with.

Hardware Color: Choose the hardware color.

Buckle: Choose the buckle style and finish or tell us what you have in mind. We have access to a lot of different buckles and finishes. We can work with you to get you a buckle that fits your style!
