The British Belt Company: Rutland-made leather belts since 1946

Shopping at The British Belt Company? See all current The British Belt Company discount codes and deals, checked regularly.

The British Belt Company is the shop front of Arnold Wills & Co, a family-run leather goods factory set up in 1946 in Uppingham, Rutland. For decades it has made belts and small leather goods for other brands, and it still designs and makes its own belts on site, from cutting the leather to fitting the buckle. Three generations of the family have been involved.

It suits anyone after a plain, well-made leather belt for work or weekends, and it's an easy place to put together a gift: belts sit alongside ties, pocket squares, braces, cufflinks, wallets and bags. The company says it buys full grain leather from Leather Working Group approved tanneries, and uses offcuts to make the leather ends on its braces.

The shop sells two main labels: belts under The British Belt Company name and Sophos, which covers a wider range of belts plus accessories. Cufflinks come from Cole Brothers. Prices are in pounds, and overseas visitors can switch to euros, dollars and several other currencies. Customer support runs Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and the store aims to answer within 24 hours. Orders are usually dispatched within one working day, and because the belts are made on site, the factory can quickly make more of anything that's out of stock.
