Hi, I’m Amy — founder of BeltUp Leather Co.
Over the years, I’ve come to realise how difficult it can be for people with a larger waistline to find a proper leather belt.
Not a glued strip.
Not a layered piece designed to look thick.
Not something that cracks, peels, or digs in.
A real belt.
That’s why we’ve become known as plus size leather belt specialists here in Australia.
We consistently stock sizes up to 58 inches across our core black, brown and tan range. For customers requiring larger sizing, we offer limited extended options up to 70 inches, depending on leather and buckle availability.
Everything is cut from a single full hide in our Brisbane workshop.
No joins.
No layering.
No shortcuts.

Why It’s So Hard to Find a Proper Plus Size Belt
Most retailers stop at 44" or 46". A few stretch to 48".
Beyond that, options shrink quickly — and quality often drops.
Common problems we see:
-
Bonded leather (compressed leather dust)
-
Two layers glued together to mimic thickness
-
Synthetic backing
-
Harsh unfinished edges
-
Weak buckles
For many customers, it’s not about fashion. It’s about finally finding a belt that:
-
Fits properly
-
Feels comfortable
-
Lasts more than a season
We focus on doing that one thing well.

Single-Piece Full Hide Construction
Every belt is cut from a full hide.
We do not join smaller sections together.
We do not laminate thin leather to create thickness.
We do not use bonded leather.
Our artisans:
-
Cut a single, continuous strap
-
Round and smooth the edges
-
Polish and seal with beeswax
-
Fit durable, balanced buckles
The result is a belt that moulds naturally to your body over time.
No sharp edges.
No separation.
No cracking layers.
Just solid leather that softens and forms with wear.
Built for Comfort – Not Just Length
We pay attention to:
-
Strap thickness
-
Edge finishing
-
Flexibility
-
Buckle balance
-
Overall proportion
Extended sizing should never feel like an afterthought.

At our Brisbane workshop, we can:
-

For many customers, the relief comes from knowing:
“You can actually make it in my size.”
No settling for inferior products.
No squeezing in to smaller belts.
No compromise.
If Your Size Changes – We’re Here for You
Bodies change. Life changes.
If your size shifts over time, we’re happy to resize your belt free of charge.
Bring it into store, or send it back using a reply-paid envelope.
We’ll shorten it properly so it remains balanced and clean — not with extra holes drilled in, not with awkward overhang.
It’s part of investing in a quality leather belt that’s built to last.
