Field Belt – Made For The Long Haul
Introducing the Field Belt, a one-of-a-kind belt crafted for those who appreciate utilitarian design and meticulous craftsmanship. Made to order in small batches, this belt is built to last a lifetime.
The Field Belt features our proprietary design two-spike Conway buckle, a simple yet ingenious structure with no moving parts. Originally used in harnesses for their durability and adjustability, the Conway style design has a history in hard-working and long-lasting equipment.
The buckle is hand-cast in bronze in small batches, right here in Finland. The rough-cast surface will develop a stunning patina over time, which you can easily customize by polishing when needed or sanding lightly when you want to brighten it back.
The belts are made from 3mm vegetable-tanned leather, with edges carefully rounded and polished by hand. The result is a belt designed to serve its wearer for a lifetime.

Background
The Process for the Belt
When we set out to design a belt, we asked ourselves what would a Kasperi Belt embody. Utility, durability, uniqueness, and the ability to get better with time. This led us to the Conway buckle, historically used in harnesses for its simplicity and reliability, where it reliably secured saddles and straps.
We set out to design our proprietary vision of the conway buckle. A two spike conway, cast by hand. The belt’s buckle is made from bronze, chosen for its strength, versatility, and capacity to age gracefully. After extensive prototyping, we refined the design and worked closely with our casting expert to perfect the tooling. Each buckle is cast in small batches, ensuring quality and attention to detail at every step.

Care
Maintain and Enjoy
The Conway Belt requires minimal care to maintain its rugged elegance. Periodically condition the leather with Kasperi Leather Wax or another beeswax-based leather conditioner to keep it supple and protected.
The bronze buckle will naturally develop a patina over time, enhancing its unique character. If desired, it can be polished to bring out its original sheen. Either way it will age gracefully to tell your story.

The United States
The United States has a de minimis threshold of $800 USD. This means that orders valued under $800 typically do not incur import duties or taxes.
For orders above $800, U.S. Customs may apply duties based on the product type, i.e. Leather goods (bags, backpacks, accessories): 8% duty. In almost all cases this means that ordering everything all at once will still be more reasonable and convenient than paying for two shipments.

Many countries benefit from EU Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) or De minimis rules reducing or eliminating import duties:
