Hey everyone,
Happy to report that all the orders from the drop have been shipped out!
Thanks again for the support guys, and please feel free to share your experience of the belt with the rest of the group afterwards.
If there’s anything else we can do to make your Massdrop experience better, just email us at support@massdrop.com :)
Question re the measurement instructions. When measuring from the hole to where the leather at the other end folds over the buckle will result in a measurement of the 'used belt length' MINUS the distance between where the leather folds over the buckle and where the buckle stick meets the hole. This is usually around an inch, but varies, so how can you get an accurate measurement this way?
eadzHi eadz,
I appreciate your question. If you are concerned about sizing you can always add around a half inch to your total length after you measured. This wont affect the measurement too much but may give you a bit of room if needed.
Thank you,
John
I believe you, but they are listed on the drop page as Tan, Natural, and Black. Tan shows the lighter brown (I assume natural?) color in the pics. Natural shows the darker brown. Black shows black. So, if I want the dark brown, what do I pick?
BeltrixHi Beltrix,
Select natural for a dark brown belt. That should work. If you would like to ensure your purchase is a brown belt please send me an email after purchase. You can can contact me at falerbrand@gmail.com
Thank you very much,
John
By chance do we know when they will be shipped? I put down an address that I will only be at until the 19th. After that it would be easiest for me to have it delivered at a different address.
TacticalTurtleI have been in a similar situation recently. If you contact Massdrop support before the item has been shipped they will change the shipping address for you.
Well, after looking at your tumblr, you make some amazing stuff, and I'll definitely be buying something from you in the near future, but I don't think it will be a belt. I just can't justify paying $15 more (let alone paying your MSRP) than Orion charges for their thick, strong, full grain, basic belt.
WoogityWoogity,
All products are crafted 100% by hand by me. While I may not be able to compete on price with some of the big name manufacturers I do believe I am able to compete on quality. Making products by hand is very time consuming and costly but allows me to pay special attention to the fine details and design features. I look forward to working with you in the future on a project.
Thank you,
John
Faler.BrandI'm so glad to be able to own one of your belts. I go through about two belts per year, because I buy crappy genuine leather belts from the store. The only belt that has lasted me longer is a top grain belt from a local leather shop, but it has stretched too large for me. After hearing everything about your belts, I'm excited to get it in the mail so I can stop this cycle of agony!
P.S. - Just to correct something the original poster stated, Faler makes their leather products with Horween leather and Horween is located in Chicago, IL. Also, the belts retail for $60 new shipped directly from Faler, not $85.00. I found the original post to be a little deceptive and just wanted to make it a better representation of the product. They still look very nice and the deal still saves all buyers $5 dollars.
Warrior372Hi Warrior372,
While I have worked with Horween in the past. The particular leather sourced for the belts in this drop are directly from an English tannery that specializes in heavy weight bridle leathers. Horween leathers are wonderful but honestly for belts I prefer and have found my customers better enjoy a bridle leather due to the strength and lack of stretch. Bridle leathers are hand finished on both the grain and flesh side creating a truly unique piece of leather unlike any American tannery produces. Bridle leather belts have not been posted to my tumblr, I make them on a custom order basis but for this drop I decided to offer them so more people would have access to such an awesome leather.
Thank you,
John Faler
WoogityI have no comparison to the Orion leather belt but if the quality of the Faler Minimalist wallet i ordered is any indication, i do not mind dropping the money for a second belt here on massdrop.
