Fire Hose Big Yellow Belt

Introducing our Distinctive Yellow Belt – meticulously crafted from the scarcely found, decommissioned yellow fire hose, and complemented by a robust West End buckle with a sleek silver gunmetal finish. Measuring at 4cm in width, this belt is a true conversation starter. The uniqueness of each belt is accentuated by the varying shades of yellow, which evolve over time due to the natural ageing process of the fire hose material. As a result, our belts can range from a vibrant English Mustard hue to a more subdued tan shade. Currently, we have in stock belts featuring our deeper yellow tones. Should you have any specific preferences or queries, we're more than happy to assist you.

It's worth noting that only a mere 5% of fire hoses in the UK are yellow, and the quantity we manage to repurpose is even less. This ensures that each belt is not just a fashion statement but a piece of history, proudly bearing the valiant legacy of its firefighting past.

All our belts are measured from the fold that holds the buckle to the third hole.

Sizes are:
L - 37” XL - 39”
