Bill Lavin 35mm Italian Embossed Dress Belt |
Bill Lavin has been a designer for over 25 years. Leather Island was simple from the start. Design the coolest vintage feeling and looking jean belts where each belt design would bring all the needed attention to those hundred dollar premium denim collections. From the man himself:
"Any way you look at it, premium denim is still a five pocket western jean, just with huge price differentials..!! But put a kickin ass belt with it and all eye's are on you now..!!! I wanted this collection to be fun, reasonably priced, and very collectable..!! Instead of springing hundreds of dollars for one cool belt, I wanted customers to discover reasonably priced cool belts and maybe buy another new cool one every week... new exciting colors, new treatments, new buckle designs, and then passing them down to their grandchildren for the next hip generation...!! Where fashion always changes, style endures forever..."
With tributes to jazz, punk rock, reggae and rock & roll, Bill Lavin's belts are screen printed in colorful designs and then distressed to achieve the perfect complement to a pair of premium denim jeans.
