The Belgrano

As a rule of thumb, Balvanera recommends you choose a belt size 2 inches larger than your pants waist size. Please refer to the sizing chart above for more detail.

Width: 1.25 inches (34mm) wide
Leather: Ethically sourced, top grain leather from Patagonia
Embroidery: 100% organic cotton sourced from Patagonia
Buckle: Solid Brass Buckle
Packaging: Cotton drawstring belt bag inside custom drawer box

Our top-grain leather is designed to gracefully age over time, naturally softening and acquiring a worn-in look over the years. If you’d like to give your belt a newer look after several years of use, you may treat it with a light leather polish. If spot cleaning is necessary, we recommend hand washing with a mild soap and letting the belt air dry.

Occasionally, a thread on the belt may come loose if it is caught on something. If this happens, we recommend pushing the end of the loose thread under the neighbouring threads and adding a drop of superglue to keep it in place

Sustainability is a core value of Balvanera, and we are constantly looking for ways to improve our carbon footprint and protect the environment.

We treat our leather exclusively with natural vegetable-based tanning agents, ensuring that no harmful chemicals are released into the environment. Additionally, our packaging is made from post-consumer recycled content and printed with non-toxic, soy-based inks.

We are also proud to partner with EcoMatcher, a tree-planting organization, to offset our packaging’s carbon footprint. For every 100 boxes shipped, EcoMatcher plants a tree on Balvanera’s behalf. Please visit www.EcoMatcher.com for more information.
