Buffalo and Crocodile Leather Belt Bag

This belt bag became a natural continuation of a previous commission — a handcrafted travel bag made from buffalo and crocodile leather. You can read more about that project here.

After receiving his first bag, the client reached out again. He wanted an accessory for daily use — something more compact, yet made in the same aesthetic, with the same attention to detail. That’s how the idea of this belt bag was born: practical, expressive, and crafted with intention.

The main requirement was to maintain the same duo of materials: buffalo and crocodile leather, this time supported with a lining of durable Alcantara for both its tactile and wear-resistant properties. Structural integrity was enhanced using reinforcement materials from Jaeger, and all stitching was done by hand using MeiSi linen thread.

The shape of the bag is ergonomic, the strap is fully adjustable, and the inner layout offers convenience for carrying everyday essentials — either on the waist or across the shoulder. While it echoes the travel bag in style, this belt bag stands on its own as a refined personal piece.

This type of accessory is often overlooked by major fashion houses, yet it holds a unique space in everyday luxury. Designed with both function and intention, it becomes a subtle statement — not loud, but deeply personal.

    This is exactly what I wanted: a compact, distinctive accessory that continues the story of my first bag. It’s a pleasure to own something created not by chance, but as part of a larger vision. Thank you for the precision and taste.
