Phuong & Seb’s Belt Co. – Handmade Belting
Phuong & Seb’s Belt Company was established in early 2010 by two designers called Phuong and Seb. The drought of well made, plain belts for men and women was the main impetus for the creation of the label. They felt that the gap between cheap $50 belts and super-brand expensive $500 belts was too large. After finishing design school at RMIT the pair decided to focus on their penchant for quality handmade craftsmanship.
The range includes double buckle belts and leather suspenders, which offers a more exciting option than the standard belt.
Choosing the right hide is imperative. Both the right colour and the tonal variations in the natural leather all come into play. The designers knew the width of the belt they wanted, so they needed to choose buckles that suited. Saddlery buckles were chosen as they’re practical, simple, and do not overpower. Both of the designers find it important that they both have input along the whole process, including making them all by hand themselves.
The two designers have enjoyed a great response thus far and hope to expand their range in the future whilst retaining their own unique hand-made quality.
