Wild Boar Leather Belt

BOAR LEATHER BELTS (1.5-INCH): 

As part of the Feral Swine collaboration, we partnered with Bad Leather Goods to offer a belt made from wild boar leather. It is a wide cut heritage belt with a solid buckle, built for everyday wear. A great match for the Feral Swine boots and a natural fit with denim and casual pants.

THE LEATHER:

Both the Jabari Boar and Waxy Boar are sourced directly from the Southeastern U.S. These boar hides undergo a rigorous process to create a softer leather that is ideal for a variety of leather goods. 

The Jabari tannage offers enhanced temper, consistent weight, and balanced oil content. It’s a full grain, so it’s smoother but shows more character and scars.

The Waxy Boar tannage is a little more velvety to the touch because it’s been slightly buffed: Gallun Leathers uses sandpaper to remove a tiny part of the skin’s outer layer before rolling several layers of wax onto it. 

This process slightly softens the appearance of the scars and follicles (don’t forget the follicles) while adding more texture to the surface because more skin fibers are exposed. 

Waxy Boar’s surface is a little less scarred, but has more texture and tonal variance.
