The Esquire is the favorite of the owner of Hanks Belts. Whether you are wearing dress pants or jeans the Esquire will complement your outfit with a slightly more refined style that is sure to impress.
We start with the same English Bridle leather we use in our Canyon belt. The Esquire is then lined with premium leather so that you have the same quality inside and out. The 1 1/4” width is perfect for a sleeker look and fits the belt loops of all jeans or pants.
The inside of the belt is raised with a separate full leather strip creating a distinctive appearance. The unique construction of the Esquire belt will last for years, age well, and conform to the individual shape of your body over time.
As with all Hanks Belts, the Esquire is made by skilled craftsmen the way a belt would have been made a hundred years ago.
Vegetable-tanned leather, unlike chromium-tanned leather, uses no harsh chemicals. Mimosa powder, derived from tree bark from Africa, gives the rich finish of the leather used on these belts. The devoted process takes six weeks from rawhide to finished leather ready to be cut and sewn into a Hanks Belt. The final step is hand burnishing every hide. Though it is a labor-intensive process it results in a unique, extremely fine finish.
Vegetable-tanned leather develops a patina that improves with age. The appearance develops with wear giving each belt its own individual characteristics.
We use top-quality hardware to finish it off. Our more refined all stainless steel roller buckle provides easy buckling and unbuckling. The superior quality stainless steel buckle costs six times more than a standard plated steel buckle, which is no less than this belt deserves. Our Chicago screws hold it all together so you can easily swap buckles yet never have to worry about snaps which can become weakened and unreliable over time.
An awesome belt that fills a wide range of dress styles, The Esquire is a belt you will reach for time and time again.

Unfortunately I ordered the wrong size although I must say the quality of the workmanship of the belt is unequalled. I need a size 38 and instructions to ship back the size 36 belt. I should have known better because the first belt I purchased from you was a size 38.
I was impressed with quality of the leather, buckle and the General workmanship of the belt. My waist is 34” and I followed the advice on sizing by ordering a 38”. In hindsight, I should have ordered a 36”
I now have 3 different belts from Hanks. Each belt arrived in perfect condition and the quality is unmatched by any other company. I am sure this will not be my last belt I purchase with this company. Thanks for keeping the belts made in USA .
This is the second belt I’ve purchased, and both my husband and brother love them! I purchased one casual and one dress belt. My only criticism would be that both times they each had to go two sizes larger instead of just one size up as suggested.
Excellent belt. Very well made. Beautiful indeed.
