Description
Create a distinctive handmade leather belt with our Live to Ride Embossed Natural Belt Blanks, available in 32mm and 38mm widths. Made from premium natural vegetable-tanned leather, each blank features a detailed motorcycle-inspired embossed design incorporating the words “Live to Ride.”
The pre-embossed pattern gives your finished belt a bold biker and Western-style appearance without requiring you to carve or stamp the design yourself. Choose from a standard unfinished blank or a convenient tipped and holed option with a shaped belt tip and pre-punched adjustment holes.
Natural vegetable-tanned leather is valued for its durability, versatility and ability to develop an attractive patina. The leather can be left in its natural colour or customised with leather dye, antique finish, edge coating and burnishing products.
Applying an antique finish is an excellent way to darken the recessed areas and highlight the detail within the embossed pattern. The edges can also be bevelled, dyed, coated or burnished to achieve your preferred professional finish.
These are unfinished leather belt blanks. Buckles, keepers and other belt hardware are not included.

Why Choose These Belt Blanks?
The pre-embossed Live to Ride pattern allows you to produce an impressive handmade belt without carving or stamping the design yourself. Its recessed detail creates visual depth and gives the completed belt distinctive motorcycle-inspired character.
Natural vegetable-tanned leather provides an excellent surface for leather dyes and antique finishes. You can customise the colour, increase the contrast within the embossed design and finish the edges to create a professional-looking belt.
Choose the standard version if you prefer to shape the belt tip and punch the adjustment holes yourself. For easier preparation, select one of the tipped and holed variations.
Complete your belt with a correctly sized buckle and keeper. A 32mm belt blank requires hardware made for a 32mm strap, while a 38mm belt blank requires hardware suitable for a 38mm strap.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the belt blank include a buckle?
No. Buckles, keepers and other belt hardware are sold separately.
What does tipped and holed mean?
The tipped and holed option has a shaped belt tip and pre-punched adjustment holes, reducing the preparation required.
Can I dye the belt blank?
Yes. The natural vegetable-tanned leather can be dyed, antiqued and finished in your preferred colour.
Can I highlight the embossed pattern?
Yes. Applying a leather antique finish can add colour and contrast while highlighting the recessed sections of the Live to Ride design.
Which buckle size should I purchase?
Match the internal buckle measurement to the width of your belt blank. Choose a 32mm buckle for the 32mm blank or a 38mm buckle for the 38mm blank.
Will the leather change with use?
Yes. Natural vegetable-tanned leather gradually develops a patina through handling, exposure and regular wear.
