Handmade Obi Belts in Leather
Obi style leather belts are inspired by the traditional Japanese obi, a wide sash worn with kimonos. In modern fashion, the Obi belt has become a stylish, statement accessory. I bought my first one in Rome, in my 20s, black calfskin leather. I have worn it with dresses and skirts on repeat for years. It just elevates every look!
The Obi belt was also my first step into leather goods as a designer. As a go-to item I shopped for as a stylist, the need for more belts, and more options kept coming up. I thought, “what if I made them?“ I sourced the leather, and made a pattern.
The classic design is a must for any wardrobe, and with each season I add new colors.
Each Obi belt is made to order, and can be altered for width and length as needed. Style it with a tie in the center or on the side. Passthrough for wrapping and zigzag stitch detailing. Italian Leather, available in multiple colors.
Custom fits, all unique, fits waists up to 34” at natural waist.
Classic Obi Belts $138, Color Blocking Belts $180
