From where can I order 1" and 1¼" leather straps and buckles?
Hi fellow kiltmakers!
I just finished making my first kilt and found all the needed supplies except a good source for the leather straps and buckles. I was able to get ¾" straps and matching buckles from Tartantown in Coquitlam, B.C., but I really wanted larger ones.
Does anyone have a mail-order source for 1" and/or 1¼" straps and buckles?
I'd love to know so that I can have everything ready for my next kilt in the fall.
Thanks,
***Amble*****

Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

Many of us who make kilts for a living order our straps and buckles from one of two or three places.
For mail order may I suggest you contact either one of our advertisers or Kiltmakers or try
Highlandxpress.com
Here is a direct link.

That is where I get mine.
