Our hippopotamus gun belts are super unique and a great conversation piece. Hippo comes from the African rivers of Zimbabwe and Zambia. Hippo feels and looks like suede. This belt is a dual layered, stiff belt designed the carry a heavy load without stretching or sagging. When seconds count you want a gun belt you can rely on to do the job.  A typical belt from a department store is not made to carry the weight of a gun and will pull away from your body, the leather will stretch, sag and eventually break.

This max thickness gun belt is super sturdy, durable, and comfortable to wear all day long. You can add a spring steel core insert for just $15 more to create a super  stiff gun belt (use the dropdown options to add this feature).

* All thicknesses are approximate and may vary slightly from hide to hide. We do our best to get it as close to 1/4" thick as possible.

We purchase our exotic hides from USA tanneries who follow the strict requirements of the Convention of International Treaty of Endangered Species (CITES) permits. Exotic hides can vary in texture, patterns, and color but the picture is a good example of what you will receive.

PERFECT FIT METHOD: Lay your current belt flat on a smooth surface and measure it from where the buckle attaches to the leather (the fold) to the hole most used. Order that belt size (round up if you measure odd).  For example if you measure 37" or 38", order a 38" belt size.
It doesn't matter if you wear your belt in the last hole, we will make your new belt measure to the center hole.
This is the best method and only takes a moment to measure.

QUICK METHOD: Pants Waist Size + 2 Inches = Belt Size

Sizing Notes: Belt size is not the total length of the belt. We have a 0.5% return rate so our method does work well. We do however offer returns if you have a sizing issues. Please visit our return policy page for more details.
