Do you sag or not, and if so how much? 30 if you don't sag too much 32 if you do sag a lot.

Skinny belt is more for girls in my opinion.

As for shipping I live in Vancouver fairly close to Oregon, TG produce by order. It can take up to 1 week to produce depending how many orders they receive. If you live in the states, it will probably take 1.5 weeks total time? This is my opinion.

Go for 30.

Skinny belt seems like its meant for girls/skinny hipster dudes. Go for the standard belt.

Yo, my people...where could I get a very dope leather messenger bag? But more professional, and less I'm-walking-around-downtown-chillin. I landed a teaching gig out in Dubai and I wanna be the fly teacher those kids never had haha.

I'm looking for a tan, the color of my TG belt:

Where can I cop a wallet that looks similar to the mid length flat head wallets without the $500 price tag. Looking to spend no more than $100

you can get a flathead repro from corter for a little over $100... maybe 130-140. i don't know pricing for unlucky but i think he can do one too.

that ponderosa wallet is pretty sick, i think i might have to pick that up once i get my next check too. I am used to the normal two fold wallet how is having a truck style wallet compared to a two fold?

i've been using my ponderosa for a while, and I am really satisfied with it, best wallet I've ever had, and their customer service is SUPERB. they didnt charge me extra for simple customizations such as decorative patches, id windows, converting it to a left handed version, and these guys are QUICK with their work.

man, if LGC just updated their 90's website to look more like TG's i'm sure they'd be doing more business. site design and better photgraphy make a big difference.

The main brands that are doing are doing it pretty well, i cant lie or discredit them at all. I just have alot of ideas and designs that havent been done yet, or i haven't seen been done. Different pouches and bags and such, also its a passion burning inside of me that i just wanna let out.

like i said i wouldnt start anytime soon, i actually promised that i wouldnt start until at least the end of this year, all the time leading up to that will be honing my skills.

So, to anyone that's bought from Corter Leather before, how do you order the belts? There's no form for sizes, so do you just send the money and wait for him to get back to you?
