An OD+IC Collaboration | The 2.0 Edition Natural Indigo Dyed Horsehide Fireman Belt

Introducing the new iteration of the OD+IC Natural Indigo Dyed Horsehide Fireman Belt.

After the positive reception of our first collaboration with Inception, we are excited to bring back the popular quick-release fireman belt, now featuring a subtle update: hand-stitched, extra-thick reinforced red and blue threads, symbolizing the OD colors.

Inception, renowned for crafting some of Japan's finest leather goods for over 30 years, was established in 1991. They cut no corners when it comes to quality and craftsmanship. This belt begins with Bend (horse butt) leather, one of the most durable and firm leathers available. The leather is vegetable-tanned for at least a month, and the reinforced threads around the buckle area are meticulously hand-stitched. The belt is completed with a heavyweight bronze buckle, which will develop a patina in tandem with the natural indigo dyed leather over time.

With a production process spanning multiple prefectures in Japan and passing through various specialized workshops, we are proud to present a limited production run of the new OD+IC Natural Indigo Dyed Horsehide Fireman Belt.
