Hi Henry
Received my wallet and extra leather lanyard today – beautiful workmanship, exceeded my expectations. Just wanted to say thanks.

Rating:Excellent
This is the second order placed with this business. Both orders were handled professionally and the delivery was speedy. The products ordered met or exceeded my expectations. LeatherGoodsConnection.com is a great company to do business with.

Mr. Farl:
I received my belt today and it exceeds my expectations. The color is perfect, much better than it looks on the computer.
Thank you,
John

Larry,
Just wanted to take a minute to tell you I am absolutely delighted with my new belt. Thank you for the time and effort you put into creating it. The fit, workmanship and quality leather is everything I could have asked for. I will be placing additional orders, so I look forward to adding several new items to my wardrobe soon.
Best Regards,
Larry

Hi Henry,
I just thought I would write to you after getting my wallet today. It is by far the nicest wallet I have ever owned. In the past I have bought the same size leather wallets that are found in western stores. They have had conches on them and the conch have always torn off. I am very happy with the workmanship on this wallet. Now I can replace my inferior wallet.
Thanks,
Truman

Hi Henry, my belt came today. Nice job, I am very pleased and the clasp for my pocket watch slides right over the leather without any problem.
Thanks again,
Art

The wallet is very well made. The leather is strong, well tanned and handsome. The most impressive part of the wallet is the stitching, which is well above average. The internals are made of strong leather and holds up, unlike cheaper wallets with wimpy liners and card holders that crack or cut. Overall the quality is great and the price is reasonable, I am well satisfied.
Lloyd

Henry,
Belts arrived yesterday. Thank you for the excellent work,

Hey Henry,
Excellent workmanship and great leather. Thank-you
John

Bill
Just to confirm that the belt arrived safely this week. I must say, I'm certainly not disappointed, the workmanship is superb. I'll be ordering more in due course.
Many thanks
Justin

Hi Henry
My wallet arrived Saturday, my old wallet, a fossil I used for 3 years, was emptied within minutes after I opened the priority envelope. I have never owned a quality wallet, I would pick one up at the store with out thinking about it too much.
I wanted to buy a wallet made in the US, I did a google search and found you. The craftsmanship is excellent, it already feels at home in my pocket.
Thanks
Tim Neal

hello again, Bill,
Just got the belts and I'm very pleased. First class handwork and a thoughtful design ... I especially like the way you hold back the double thickness away from the buckle area.
Terrific. Thanks very much.

From: musicproud
I remember that you said most people are sick of their handbags after two years or they start to look shabby. I am guessing that mine must be about five years old now.
I still love the various compartments and especially going for the light pigskin lining with the black dove exterior. It is still an amazing thing to be able to get inside and FIND what I am looking for. The waist and shoulder strap are still in great shape despite loading it down. I left it at church once and the deacon asked me why I needed to bring a suitcase for a couple of hours away from home.
It does not look shabby in the least and I am not tired of it. Furthermore, I have noticed that some of the backpack makers are putting light linings in their packs so people can find their laptop chords and accessories. We were just a bit ahead of the game. I guess that between us we have created a unique collector's item if you can't get those leather colors anymore.
I have attended a couple of craft shows and leather people immediately want to know where I got my bag. Then they want to inspect it. Then they comment about the exquisite workmanship and the pigskin lining. When I guess what year it was made, they say they don't think they could have made the bag for that price even back then. If I am in a hurry, I have learned to take a cheap little fanny pack.
Thank you for sharing your expertise with others so that this craftmanship can be carried on.
Rebecca

Hi Bill,
A bit late, but I did want to write and say I did receive the belt in a timely manner, and it is EXACTLY what I wanted. Thanks for your concern and great attention to detail!!!!

Bill
The belt arrived this week and It is just what I wanted,exceptional quality as was the previous one you made for me.
Many thanks.
Dave D

Hi Henry,
I think its coming up on a year or so since I bought my wallet from you (calfskin natural unfinished). It’s aging beautifully and not a stitch is out of place. I have a number of wallets bought both for me and by me but this is the one I like most. I can see it will do many years service, maturing nicely all the while. I find it was great value, including the shipping to Ireland – I havn’t seen anything available locally or otherwise to match it for quality, at any price.
I’m planning a couple of belts and will be in touch.
Thanks again for your great service.
Eoghan

Bill,
Received my belt this past weekend and it looks great. I couldn't be happier with it. Thanks for your time and effort.
Mike

Hi, Bill!
I am so sorry I didn't write to you ealier. We received the belts a couple of days before Christmas... yeah! What a beautiful surprise! We absolutely love them! They came out great!
Thank you so much for your efforts and timeliness. The workmanship is perfect, as we've come to expect fom you! The attention to detail is apparent.
Have a very happy and prosperous New Year!
Elena and Keith

Henry,
The wallet is beautiful, and my boyfriend LOVES it. Thank you so much!

Dear Henry,
Thank you! This wallet is beautiful!!!!!
Christian

Best belt I have ever owned. Almost too nice to wear! Already planning my next one.
My advice is don't spend $24.95 on a belt that will look worn out in 9 months; instead spend a little more (still eminently reasonable) for a custom built to your specifications, that will last from now on.
Austin Bush

Hi Henry,
Thanks a lot! The item arrived this week. I'm glad it all worked out so smoothly with the shipping and that the delivery was this quick!
The wallet is very beautiful and I'm happy with my purchase. I'd order from you again without hesitating (and probably will).
Thanks a lot!
Kind regards,
Lars

Dear Mr. LeClaire,
I have received my belts and thank you. As always, your products are amazing. After you have some well deserved rest after the Holidays, I will be back again.
Best regards and Merry Christmas.
John

Thank-you very much! They are beautiful, My son should really like them. I do hope so! They smell so good too. Thanks again! Anne Almeida, Bishop, Calif.

Henry,
I received the check cover today. It is perfect. Beautiful leather, careful craftsmanship, and the size is exactly as I specified. I am glad I found you on the web. I’m sure I will be ordering again - soon.
Bill

Hello Henry,
The belt arrived Friday!
I wanted to thank you again for your superb work. This is the third belt which I have bought from you, and the third time I have been very, very happy with the quality of your products. The first belt you made for me has seen pretty much daily use for almost two years now, and has held up to wear wonderfully. If I need any leather good in the future, I know where I will get them from, and that's a great feeling.
Have a great holiday season,
- Ian

G'day Bill,
received the belt a few days ago.
The belt is great and absolutely kills any of the trash I have seen or spent money on from department stores.
Thanks.
DION

Belt arrived. Just as with my earlier purchase, entirely satisfactory and then some. I am very happy to have found you folks and will pass the info around to anyone I think might find it of interest.

Received the belt today. Well done! Fits the buckle and me perfectly. Tom

Hi Larry,
Received my belts today and what can I say. Excellent quality you just can't get belts like this anymore in Australia.Thanks again for the effort and workmanship in producing such a belt.Will be back for more and will recommend you to family and friends without hesitation.
Regards,
Anthony Michael

Got it. Henry, your belts are great, and I sure enjoy your wallets. Just applied your conditioner to my first belt this morning, and it refreshed it nicely. You'll recall that a got a bridal leather billfold for myself, and a few billfolds for my boys, as well as the passport case. The bridal leather is breaking in nicely, still has the "rustle" of leather when opening and closing. I enjoy that. I enjoy the closing more...it seems to get opened too often. I bought a second bridle leather wallet for myself as well, in anticipation of when this one wears out. Looks like it'll be a while before I'm getting into that one - these appear to be very durable so far.
Thanks so much. Hope you had a nice holiday.
Best, John Nash

This was my fourth order from this vendor. Have been thoroughly delighted with every purchase. I could not imagine buying leather goods from any other source.

Larry
I received my belt an it's perfect. You've sold me, I'll now order all my belts from you.
Thanks
Bill

Hello Bill,
Thank you very much for the belts, your workmanship is excellent. I look forward to doing buisiness with you in the future.
Thanks again,
Ryan Montgomery

Henry,
The belt is wonderful and gets better the more I wear it. Thanks much!
Ben Weaver

Hi Henry:
Just a note so say thanks for the beautiful belt. The fit is perfect, the workmanship superb and the leather and buckles are top notch. To be honest I don't know how you can make such a great product at these prices but I'm glad you can. Compared to a lot of high end leather goods your stuff is in a class of its own. I'm pondering getting one of your wallets to go with my belt! You've got a great site and I find your circuitous career path intriguing and inspiring. One idea you might want to consider is offering a money belt option on some of your belts. I'll be traveling abroad and thought how neat it would be to have one of your belts that was also a money belt...I'm sure you would do a beautiful job...heck maybe all I had to do was ask you about this. At any rate, thanks for doing what you do.
Best Regards,
Rob Rosenberger

Hello Bill,
I received the belt today, it is perfect! Couldn't ask for a better belt. Thanks for your email and care instructions.
W. C. Warner

Henry,
Just got my work belt, it is very nice and looks like I will get years of service from it. I will definitely order my ranger belt now.
Thank You.
Dudley Roberts

After been sold fake leather in Spain, I wasn't building my hopes up. But this is the real thing, beautifully crafted, this guy knows his job. Buy with confidence.

Hey Henry, just recieved my new wallet today it is really great, again just want to tell you how pleased I am with both of my purchases from you, keep up the great work I will talk to you again Steve.

Dear Henry:
The mailman delivered the belts you made for me ten ago. Everything about them is perfect. I have been in the leather business, shoes and accessories for more than forty years and I could kick myself for not finding you sooner.
Bravo!
Kindest regards,
Ken Koski

Bill
My Russet Bridle Leather Ranger belt arrived yesterday and it is great. The workmanship is clearly excellent and the weight and feel of the leather makes me think that this will age well. I may try to darken it a little, or else let nature take its course. But either way, this belt is exactly what I wanted, so thank you. It is good to know that it is still possible to get a quality product like this.
Best Regards
Erik

Dear Sir,
I just wanted to let you know I love my bridle wallet I ordered from you. Sorry I didn't get back with you sooner, I just placed a order for the calfskin wallet they look great. It will probably be the last two wallets I ever own!!!!
Thanks Again
Steve

Hey, I got the wallet today, man it is really beautiful! I am so happy with it, you do great work! Thank you.
Douglas

Henry, Bill,
My sincere thanks! Belt and wallet arrived yesterday at the same time and both are astonishingly beautiful, rugged and wearable!!
Wearin' them both in my office for casual Friday and the compliments keep comin'.
Can't thank you enough!!

Hi Henry,
I've been meaning to write and thank you for the excellent belt you made for me. I got it about the first of September. I showed it to my wife (who grew up as a farm girl), and she sniffed it and pronounced it as "Really good leather!"
I also want to thank you for chamfering the cut end of the belt so it would fit into my lever-type buckle more easily. This was an "extra" I didn't expect.
I've been wearing the belt for over a month now, and the hole I usually use has not elongated at all. In fact, it is almost impossible by just looking at the belt to tell which hole I usually use. A run-of-the-mill belt would by now have suffered a noticeable elongation of the used hole.
And the end of the belt still is perfectly aligned with the buckle. An ordinary belt would by now be somewhat crooked where it comes out of the buckle. I've found that extracting the belt end and re-clamping it does not help with a cheaper belt. Yours does not require any such adjustment.
Thank you for an excellent product and a job well done!
David

Hi Bill,
I just wanted to say thank you for a fantastic Ranger Belt! It is everything I hoped for and more, and I couldn't be happier with the way it looks. It is a perfect match for my Zuni buckle as you can see in the attached photograph. I was also very impressed with how fast you made it and shipped it. I will be recommending you to all my friends and will definitely come back to you for my next belt.
Thanks again!
Andreas

It's rare...that something arrives exactly as I'd hoped. The belt I found in mailbox this morning did that. I couldn't be happier. Really nice work. I'll be ordering more items soon.
Best regards,
Murray

Henry,
The belts came Friday. These are great belts for the price and the service was incredible. I just wish that I had know about your company sooner. Best of all they are made in the southern USA. Thanks.
Earl.

Henry
I have a bridle leather wallet made by you and just want to let you know that it's beginning to break in nicely. Tough as nails. It's a great product. Thanks!
Dennis

I received my first belt from you last week. It is everything that I was looking for in a belt. I was raised in Texas and have lived in Alabama for the last 21 years and to be honest with you, since I left Texas, I have not been able to find a Ranger belt of this quality anywhere I have looked. I love the belt and will buy more in the future. Great quality, fast service and a product that you can show off when you put it on.
Thanks a bunch.

A guaranteed return customer. I have given your information to a few of my buddies here in Alabama. They are impressed with the belt.

Bill the belts are here, great looking, well made, fit well, and worth every penny. I will buy other products from you soon. Thank You. Tony

Henry,
I have received the belt and it is beautiful! you do wonderful work, hopefully we can do business again.
thank you again!

Hello Larry,
I received the belt today and I love it! Thanks,
Stephen Chedester

Larry / Henry,
Received my belt yesterday and it is fantastic just like I used to have made back in the 70’s only a bit longer now!!

Bill,
I am so impressed I can hardly believe it! You just might have set a world record in speed
Thank you Sir.

A beautiful product, well finished, with lots of personal choice for a personalized belt. My next belt I will upgrade to the harness leather, for second lifetime of us and be completely delighted.

Rating:Excellent This is the third Ranger Belt I've ordered and each is more beautiful than the last. I'm looking forward to having them make me a wallet next. This vendor is an ARTIST in leather.

Bill. have just received the belt today and what can I say!!!! It fits perfectly, looks sensational, and is TOTALLY MAGNIFICENT!!!! My only complaint is that I wish I could buy MORE!!! THANX AGAIN, ABSOLUTELY GREAT JOB!!!

Bill,
UPS just delivered my/your belt and I immediately opened it. It is a beautiful belt, and everything I had hoped it would be. It matches the dark brown Cordovan "Lucchees" boots that I bought last month, and this was the reason for my belt order. The Vogt silver belt buckle set that I have looks handsome on it, and I will go to my favorite Latino shoe cobbler here in Tyler and have him put on the silver "tip" today.
Thanks for your professional leather work. You did a good job for me.
Sincerely Yours in better craftsmanship,
Fred

Hey Larry,
Just got the belts and they're great. Beautiful color on both and perfect fit. I'm sure I'll place another order soon.
Tyler

Arrived today!!! Super bag - great leather and well-crafted!! Distinctive!!! Many thanks! Jim

Hi Henry,
The wallet arrived on Monday and it is better than expected, True craftsmanship, and you have provided swift and excellent service, Thank You!
It is currently being the envy of a few mates, so there might be more Irish orders coming your way.
Cheers
Kaare

Hello Bill,
The belt just arrived and it is gorgeous!
Also, from the description on your web site, I thought the harness leather might be a bit stiffer than I like, but it isn't - it seems only slightly stiffer than the bridle leather. All-in-all the belt is even better than I expected.
Thank you,
Shirley

Bill,
Received my new belt today. It's even more beautiful than the other two!!
You do excellent work.
I appreciate it.
~ Mike

Bill,
This is a late reply but I wanted you to know I received the belt and am very happy with it. Your sizing system worked just right and the belt is of exceptional workmanship and quality.
Thanks for your care in fulfilling my order.
Gene Ferguson

I swear ... ya'll make the best belts I've ever owned. Keep up the good work. Best regards,
Mike

Henry
I just received the glass cases and belt loop today. I can not tell you how pleased I am with them. The material and workmanship is excellent and they are ideal for the application. The belt loop is also one of the best I have ever seen - you might want to list it on your site.
I normally only use reading glasses and I need to carry them with me. Up til now the only cases I have found are too big and bulky to carry in a pocket and the ones that will attach to a belt have a wimpy clip that keeps sliding off of the belt or a leather (plastic) strap that only lasts a week or two. The last one I got from my optometrist lasted about 5 days. She could find nothing better. I checked the internet under glass cases and there was nothing - it was only when I searched for leather goods that I found your web site (you might want to include glass cases or eyeglass cases in your search keys).
Thank you again for an excellent product and good service at a reasonable price and thanks for the belt loop.
Regards
Robert McKeown

Just to let you know that I received my travel wallet, its exactly as described and really well put together.
Thanks
Andrew

Dear Larry,
The belt arrived promptly and I put it on just about as quickly. It seems to be an excellent belt and I am looking forward to using it for many years.
Thank you for your service and your craftsmanship.

Hi Henry,
Just to advise we received the wallets yesterday in the post and we are delighted with them. Pretty fast shipping, too!! Expect another order from us again very soon.
Many thanks for the excellent service and quality products.

Larry,
I received the belt on Friday. I have to say you do excellent work. The quality and craftsmanship is wonderful. You hit the dimensions exactly and I have to say it is customer service, quality and fair pricing like this that is missing today.
You need to know that some of us still appreciate excellent work done in the USA and you certainly exceeded my expectations on cost, quality, delivery, customer service....
Great Job!
Regards,

This is the finest leather product and workmanship that I have ever seen. The Leather Goods Connection will exceed your expectations.

I received my ranger belt today and am very happy with it. It fits perfectly and great workmanship and materials. I would certainly do business with you again because of the excellent work you do.
Thanks
Eddie Bloxsom

Nice work on the belt Henry. Just got it and it's beautiful. Better than I thought it was going to look. I had thought I might put something on it (like Obenauf's leather preservative) but I think I may just leave it the way it is.
Thanks much. Jeff

Bill
Received belt today, just what I wanted & looks great with my 70 year old silver/gold buckle set. Thanks
Tim

hello guys and especially Bill,
I would just like to send my very best wishes and a big thank you for my lovely ranger belt that I received this morning in hampshire, england.
I am absolutely delighted with it, well made with care, beautiful nickel buckle and carriers, a top job, worthy of recommendation worldwide.
I will be passing on details when asked where I got it from - these things are rare in the uk!
best wishes
guy cragoe

Henry,
Received my order (order 9956) today and just wished to send you a thank you for speedy shipping and great products! Both my belt and wallet were amazing in quality and craftsmanship. I have been searching for quality leather belt and wallet for awhile now and I believe your products will last me a life time but I will be back soon to purchase another belt as a secondary. I will also be thinking of your products come the holiday season. I will recommend your services to my friends and anyone that happens to comment on either of the items.
Thank you
Danny D'Huyvetter

Henry,
I recently purchased two belts from you and I love them! They are very well made and are far superior to anything I can buy from the store or in a magazine, they fit perfectly after following your precise sizing guide and look great too.
David



I have received the wallet. Very nice craftmanship. Thanks,
Andy

I found this website to be the most honest and informative, when considering an important leather goods purchase. I can’t wait to get my new custom made belt.

Thanks for the promptness of my order. Got the wallet and was more than pleased. Have had many compliments on it. Looks like years of service. I am sure that the check book cover will be of the same quality. Still pleased with the way you care for you dogs. I will be a returning customer.
Art sechrest

Henry,
Got the wallet...absolutely amazing. Just what I was looking for. I will be sure to get some more from you in the future. I am thinking about a belt. Mine is getting pretty warn out. Thanks so much. Best birthday gift I have gotten in a while.
Matt

Belts came today. In good order thanks to your placing them in bags. The box had been wet and smashed.

Henry --
The belt arrived today. My expectations were exceeded. I have owned several fine belts, but this belt is the nicest belt I've ever had the pleasure to use. The quality of the leather is first rate, the buckle exceptional, and fit is perfect (glad I read the sizing instructions!). I had a tough day today at work and was pleased to find the belt waiting when I got home. But my day was considerably brightened when I discovered that there are still people who can make a quality item with pride. Thank you very much.
Jack

I have received the uniquely custom belt that Larry made for me and it is everything I hoped for. He did a good job and I have been wearing it and am very happy with it. I'm hoping he will make a couple of more for me. Thamks! I'm glad I found you guys.
James Hill

Bill,
Recieved the belt. What a great piece of work. I will be ordering another one soon, and replacing my dress belts shortly also. Great work.
Ed

O.K. add me to your list of very satisfied customers. I ordered the belt through your on-line form, got a back-up call from you folks and had my belt delivered in five business days. A perfect fit and superb quality. Worth every penny.
Paul Cunning

Bill,
I received the belt today. Workmanship and materials are first rate. Frankly, I thought the belt was a bit expensive, but I had to find an alternative product after visiting several local western wear stores and being exasperated at finding only Chinese made leather goods. You get what you pay for and your belt is worth it; thanks for the superior product. I will have another made in the future.
Kindest regards,
Christopher Tucker

Hi,
Belt received today (this was a lot faster than expected). The pictures on your website don't do justice to your work : this is as simple as beautiful : the perfect "tough jeans belt" with a very subtle orange-beige colour (will be nice with orange chain-stichted seams). The leather is thick and supple and untrea this will get a wonderful patina... Thanks again. I will recommend your to my friends.
Best Regards
Guillaume

Henry,
I received the belt this morning. I am very pleased and impressed. What a great product and fine work. It beautifully compliments my buckle.
Thank you very much.

Hi, Henry.
I just received your wallet and belt, and I gotta say, never mind what I had in the past, they are by far the best quality products I've ever seen. I just love the tone of the brown leather, and the built quality is superb. I just wanted to let you know I really appreciate your craftsmanship, and I cannot wait for them to get broken it.
Steve

Henry: Received the belts just now. They're beautiful. Thanks for the quick service. JM3

Hi Henry,

Recieved the belt today. Exactly what I wanted and it's BEYOND excellent! Thank you so much for your assistance and personal attention.(and patience) I will absolutely be buying again soon and will recommend to friends who are looking for some great leather to stop by your site and buy. Especially now, buying American made is more important than ever, and your shop and service represent the best of that.
Thanks again,

I received the wallet I ordered from you today. I was very impressed with the quality. I will be showing it to all my Harley buddy's to see if they would like to order one. I also showed your web site to my wife and it looks like I will be ordering her a purse in the near future. It is nice to know there are still quality products made in the good old USA.
Thanks again Mel.

Love the wallet, Henry.
Perfectly what I wanted and needed.

Henry,
My belt arrived yesterday. Perfect! You do nice work. I will share my experience with friends. I just retired as a Probation Officer, and they are always looking for good quality belts for duty and dress. I am very pleased with mine. I may order another belt in the future. I have you saved on my favorites, and will show my friends your card. Thank you.
Ron Knighton

Henry:
WOW! I just received my wallet and absolutely LOVE it! Honestly, I accidentally click on your website and it captured my interest, especially the testimonials regarding the quality product you market.

I am retiring a five year old Dopp wallet (my favorite until yours) that had ten card holders, a pass case, two pockets, and two sections for bills. I was completely surprised that everything I carried in my old wallet fit nicely into my new one. Actually when seated, my new wallet is much more comfortable, too.

Sorry for the long message, I just wanted you to know that you have a customer for life. I am so happy I clicked on your site!
Sincerely,
Adam

Hello Henry,
I just received the belt I ordered from you. You are a true craftsman. I have never seen such a beautiful piece of work. You can be sure that any future needs I have will be yours to fulfill. My heartfelt thanks for your prompt response and the beautiful work.
John F. Zorn

Bill,

Thanks so much,
Monique

Dear Henry -
Many thanks for the wallet, which arrived today and looks great. I very much appreciate the quality of the piece and the promptness of delivery. I hope to buy from you again some day. kind regards - Paul Watkins

Hi Henry
- I received my wallet today.... F'n Awesome! From the smell and feel of the leather, to the stain color, to the suede interior compartments, to the personal monogram. Absolutely beautiful. I got compliments from all of the designers. We even put it next to the Creative Director's Japanese version.. Let's just say he wasn't to happy about his anymore! I may be placing another order for a coworker tomorrow and I'll be back soon for a belt to go with my wallet.
- Thank you again for a fine product..

I think your wallet is the best I've ever had. It's holding up great, and gets more attractive with use.

Hi Bill,
I received the black Ranger belt with wheat stiching last night. It will work perfict for my holster belt, The piece of leather you used is very nice...Also the buckle set is better than I thought..very, very nice....
Thanks again Bill for a wonderful product...
Scott

I purchased a ranger belt, and it is pure artistry! I am planning on buying another one soon; one for every occasion. I have had many friends comment on my belt.
I highly recommend anyone who appreciates perfect craftsmanship to select the design that you like, and buy one for your mate, and yourself for a gift.
Paul

Bill,
Thanks for helping me with my new belt. I have to tell you the black Ranger and the Mechanics belt you made for me I gave as gifts this Christmas. These were the best received gifts I have given to my friends and my son, I did give them your web site, hope this will bring you a few new orders in this new year.
Again Bill thanks for making a wonderful product, Happy new Year....
Scott

Hi Larry,
My belt arrived today. Thank you so much for your fast service. I bought it to replace a similar belt I have that has long been past due for retirement, and I am very pleased with the quality of your product.
Regards,

Hi Henry,
First, happy new year!
Just returned from the mountains without internet. The wallet arrived in the meantime and I like it very much! It's almost like a late christmas present, thanks a lot for this exeption and the nice work you sell!
cheers,
Mathias

Hi
Wallet received...exceeds my expectations! Thanks IF it wears out....you will get the reorder!
Thanks Stuart

Mr. Hibbard - I received my belt in the mail today. Thank you so much for making such a fine belt. I feel like I'm wearing a piece of art. You are a true craftsman. Can't wait to order another once I decide what style and color. Thanks again.

I am delighted that my internet research led me to Leather Goods Connection! I wanted to purchase a "biker wallet" as a December birthday gift for my college-age son as his was falling apart; until I found LGC's website, I despaired of finding one without a logo/crude saying or that didn't otherwise look "cheap".
The wallet I ordered arrived surprisingly quickly during the holiday "crunch time" & I was very pleased with the quality of both the leather and the workmanship. Better yet, my son is very happy with it too.
Excellent e-mail communication, quality items made in the USA that are not over-priced, and prompt delivery are great reasons to support this small business, and I look forward to being a repeat customer. Warm thanks and all best wishes, Henry!

Henry Hibbard answers all e-mails personally in a timely manner. He delivered exactly what I ordered, he also, made sure (at my request that the company name did not appear on the outside of the package) and reduced shipping rates so that I actually paid less than I thought I was. I would definitly recommend him to anyone looking for a quality leather product, shipped efficiently, timely, and with utmost professionalism! Great Job, LeatherGoodsConnection.com!


Henry,
I am simply floored at the quality of this belt! Have been looking forward to it for days and find that it exceeds all expectations. Absolutely perfect.
Bravo!!!!!
You are the best. Thanks again,
Michael Limbert

Hi Bill
I just recieved the belt, and I just want you to know that I love it. Thankyou, its the nicest belt I have ever owned. I will wear it with much pride.
Merry Christmas

I wanted to order a wallet and have it specially adapted. He not only agreed to custom make it, but he shipped it two days later. I had the wallet four days later and it is beautiful. The gentleman was a pleasure to do business with.

Bill, just to let you know. The belt got here a couple of days ago. It's a beautiful piece of work. Thanks a lot.
Ron

Have a Merry Christmas, Santa. I had looked and looked and had receieved several people/co.'s to tell me "no" they could not get one done and shipped the way you did. Enjoy your holidays. Rebecca

Bill-
The mailman just dropped off my package with the belts--they are PERFECT! I am wearing the black one on the second tightest hole and it feels and looks great. Thank you for getting them so quickly too. I will certainly be ordering from you again when I need more belts. Have a wonderful holiday season!
Shannon

Henry-
Many thanks for the belts. They are really great - twice the belt for half the price. I really can't believe I used to buy belts at J. Crew and Macys. Looking forward to ordering one of the fancier ones sometime in the future.
Best,
David

Henry,
You rock, I have received the wallet and change purse - I am very pleased. Thank you for the quick turnaround.
Happy Holiday.
Carol Jeffrey

It's been about a month since I received my Working Man's Wallet from you. The leather is softer, the wallet doesn't support itself to remain open 35 degrees when on its side, and it doesn't smell like the leather products it was seasoned with. I still admire it every time I pull it out, and still lovingly smell it every night before putting it on my pocket-stuffs table. I know it's going to live with me for a long, long time.
So, I wanted to thank you again, and keep your business card in case anyone mentions buying a new wallet or belt, or any leather product.
Thank you,
Will.

I was shopping for a good leather belt that would handle a belt buckle. The sites I visited were vague about how to measure, options, and the like. But Leathergoods had a great web site. It took the mystery out of how to measure and had clear options to custimize the belt. The quality of the product is great. ( You get what you pay for)

Bill and the Craftsmen at Leathergoods Connection:
I just received the belt that I had ordered. I am truly impressed. The turn around from ordering to delivery (12 days) was incredibly fast, and I would willingly wait months for such a quality product. I am very pleased with the fit, color, and construction. This is exactly what I have been looking for and now I have finally found it. Please know that you will continue to get additional business from me, and I will be ordering additional items shortly.
Thank you for such a superior quality product.
Kindest personal regards,
John Dillon

Thanks so much. My husband will now have I believe 4 belts from you. He really loves the work you do and appreciates the quality of your product. Thanks again and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!
Keri Moseley

Bill,
Just wanted to drop you a note and let you know that my belts arrived today. I can't begin to tell you how pleased I am with them. Your craftsmanship is evident throughout the belt. Quality material as well. I will highly recommend your custom shop to all of my friends who I know also appreciate the finer quality American made items like the belts you made for me.
I appreciate and admire your skill and craft.
Regards,
Jess Hancock Sr.

Thank you Bill,
I received my belt and could not be happier. The quality is superior to anything I could by locally and even if I could find something as nice it would cost twice as much. The color is perfect, I don't no how you did such a great job based of my vague description but it is fantastic. Keep up the good work.
Shawn

Henry,
I have now bought and received 5 different belts from you and each one of them is unique in and of itself. The most recent one I bought was the braided belt with seven braids. It is perhaps the greatest example of your workmanship of them all. It is truly a work of art the way that this belt is made and how great it looks. The workmanship and quality of the other four belts I have purchased are also quite superb. As so many of your customers have stated, it is a joy to work with you. The time from placing the order to when the belts have arrived at my house is quite amazing in today�s world. To find such excellent quality in your product and the manor in which you deal and care for your customers is a breath of fresh air. I would recommend to anybody that they buy one or several of your products. They will be very pleasantly surprised with the quality and considering these are custom hand made belts, they are a great value in today�s market. I am so glad that when I searched the WEB for handmade belts that I found your WEB site.
Thanks again,
Hal

Fantastic work combined with excellent customer service and communication is hard to beat. He is a true craftsman and made me a gorgeous belt. I would definitely recommend to my friends as well as purchase his goods again myself.

Thanks Henry --
The belt arrived very promptly, and I'm just as happy with it as I was with the first belt I bought from you, before I accidently left it behind in a hotel in Bermuda.
Much appreciated,
Seth

Hi Bill:
I received the belts today and I can only tell you that I was stunned.
Your web site details and illustrates the products completely, yet it doesn't begin to describe their quality. The richness of the oxblood tones I found in the medium brown leather is way more than I hoped for. The size and heft of the #4 buckle belies its photograph entirely. The thickness of the leather surpasses that of any harness leather belt I've ever owned, so much so that I first wondered if the belts would be supple enough to adapt to the buckle without a break-in period, but they did.
Finally, Bill, the workmanship is terrific. Even though I opted for plain belts the care, with which they were made is clearly evident. Thanks again, Bill.
Roy.

Very good quality work. Very responsive to customer needs. Exceptionally quick turnaround. Great website for customer information, selection and ordering. Unique belts individually hand made to customer order. Very highly recommend, especially the harness leather belts. A bit pricey but very high quality and unique. I will definitely shop there again. Bought three belts and am very pleased with them.

Henry,
I got the belt yesterday. It sure did not take long to get here but I am not that far away in Tallahassee. It is another beautiful belt, not quite as flexible as the brown one Bill made for me but I can already tell by wearing it will get more flexible with a little time. It may be that the brown one is more flexible than the new black one because I have been wearing it for a while. I now own a total of 4 of your belts and everyone of them is great. I especially like the bridle ones because they are more flexible and are softer to the touch. Thanks so much for producing such a great product. When I get some more money, perhaps next month there is one more belt I would like to get. Having been in college in the sixties, I used to have a woven belt, they were very popular back then. I would like to get another one and am leaning toward the special seven braid one that you make. Anyway, have a great weekend and it has been a wonderful experience dealing with you and Bill.
Thanks again,
Hal

Henry, Henry!
It came today and is wonderful. Thank you very much.
Will.

I wanted to say that the photos on the net do not convey the real beauty of this handbag. The leather has a wonderful texture, the craftsmanship is beautiful, and it smells great too! So glad I stumbled upon your website.

Hi Henry,
I was out of town and just opened my belt. I could not be happier and already look forward to another.
Best regards,
Jim Rothbarth

Hello Henry, Bill, & Larry:
I have recently ordered three belts, a dress belt, a casual harness leather belt, and a bridle leather work belt. Each of you made one of them and the quality is uniformly excellent. All three are very handsome and of great quality. I love them all. The work belt is the perfect casual jeans belt. I am amazed by the quick turn around time you guys give a customer. I was also impressed with the quick response on the dress belt sent with the wrong buckle. I got the new one within a few days and a refund check for postage to return it. The web site is great with very good images of the options available. Also the selection menu for the customers to select their preferred options is great. Even the attention of shipping the belts in a plastic bag inside the shipping box for protection from the elements does not go unnoticed. Excellent service, very high quality work and materials, very handsome belts. It will be my pleasure to enjoy these fine belts for years to come.

Bill,
I received my construction worker/gunbelt belt yesterday and the fit and finish were perfect! Fine product and great craftsmanship! I couldn't wait to wear it today. I will be ordering a ranger belt and one other I can wear with a silver Indian buckle soon.
FYI, I passed on the web link to my wife and daughter to check out your purses and wallets. It is always a hassle for them finding the right combination of features at retail stores. I encouraged them to consider one of your items that will probably last longer than they will.

My belt came today. Beautiful piece of work. I think if my Daddy had one of your belts I would have enjoyed my whippings a lot more.
Thank you for a really fine belt.

I got home and found the belt waiting for me - it is perfect! I will most likely be ordering another one in black very soon. Thank you.

Thanks again.

Henry,
I have received the belt last Friday. In one word I'll describe it..."GREAT". Great workmanship and quality.
It is alot better than a store bought belt that was falling apart due the abuse that I put it through.

Dear Henry,
I got the belts you made for me today . A real mans belt is what I wanted and that`s exactly what I got . They look very well made, and fit absolutely perfect. WELL WORTH THE MONEY , THANK YOU HANK ! JOHNNY BOY LOVES THE BELTS

Hi Bill -
I got the belt and it is absolutely gorgeous! You did a beautiful job. I thank you for your rush order. I know my husband-to-be will love it and will wear it hard (he's a farmer). These belts are such a great gift idea, I will certainly keep you in mind in the future and recommend you to friends.
Thanks so much!!!

The items arrived today. They are spectacular. This new belt is already my favorite. Need to grow together with the new wallet - it is very different from what I'm used to. Thanks a bunch for crafting and selling great products at a fair price. This is how commerce is supposed to work in America. I plan to do more business with you.

Hi,
I just got the wallet today, and it looks GREAT! I will show some pictures of it on a streetwear forum where I first heard about you from if you don't mind.
Thanks,

WOW!!! Henry! The wallet you handmade for me is of the highest craftsmanship. Truly a piece of fine leatherwork. I will take pride in ownership and of course stuffing it with greenbacks and using it on a daily basis. Thanks, Gene

Got the belts yesterday. FABULOUS work. I'll definitely be coming back for more.

Quality belt construction just as ordered. Quality leather, unbelievably fast turnaround - 6 days from order to receipt of belt. Great price and value. Would definitely order again.

Thank You,

AMAZING! One had a custom color, and ordered on Sunday, and shipped on Monday! I might need the Cordovan dye in the future, since you said it was like a dark tan. I have shoes that are colored "cognac", which is a dark tan without any red that I can see. Maybe I can get a sample of the dark tan color to see if it is a close match one of these days. Thanks for your work!
rts

I recieved the wallet today it is a great show of craftsmanship thanks alot , mike

I got the belt and everything looks great. I had a Circle Y ranger type belt, just a simple leather belt with buckles similar to the one I purchased from you, it was getting a little thin in the back, however it was 15 years old and has been on me every single day. The ranger type belt in my opinion is by far the best design, and you did an outstanding job on this belt.
Clint

Henry,
I received my belt yesterday. I won't waste your time but I had to write and tell you. The fit...perfect. The workmanship...perfect. I have looked for the longest time to find a place where I could buy a good, quality belt but they certainly aren't in the clothing stores. I will buy again.
Thank You Very Much,
Robert Greenawalt

Thanks Bill - I have received the belt and LOVE IT!
Jamie & Kevin Elder

Thank you for your great product. This is the second belt I have ordered from you. I am a Deputy Sheriff and I wear your belt to work everyday, and it is still in great shape. The reason for this order is a different look and a different color, and I know I can trust the product.

thank you for my wallet. the craftsmanship is excellent. plus its American made. keep up the good work. thanks david

Hi Bill,
I just received my new belt today and it is perfect. The workmanship is excellent, the style and fit are great. I couldn't be happier. You can be sure that I will be letting my friends and family know about your great service excellent craftsmanship.
Thanks again!

Henry --
The belt arrived as promised and I'm very happy with it. Very nice leather and craftsmanship. It fits perfectly at the center hole, and its the first belt I've ever had that really fits me, that I haven't had to poke extra holes in or chop off part of the end. . .
Well done. I'm sure I'll be a repeat customer and I'll spread the word.
S.

Thank you so much.The bag arrived yesterday and it is PERFECT. Thank you also for the Chestnut sample. It is the color I was looking for. I will send a separate update for the other order because in addition to the color I would like to specify the strap width. Thank you for your excellent craftsmanship and professionalism!

Received the wallet. Just what I needed.Since this is the wallet you still use, maybe a photo of yours today will give us a picture of what to expect in the years to come.
In today�s disposable age, it�s great to be able to purchase something �long-lasting�!
Thanks!
Eric

Hi Henry!
My tote just arrived and it is beautiful! I'm about as picky as you can get when it comes to purses and this one is fabulous! The workmanship is awesome and the brown pebbled leather is so soft. I appreciate that you were able to make the straps 1" wide. Thank you for the quality product, the fast shipping, and for replying so promptly to my email!!

P.S. the braided keychain is fabulous as well. :)

Thanks, Bill. This will be my second belt from you. The first is being used in the northern Sahara in extreme conditions. It's holding up fine in an environment where most shoes and clothes fail in just a couple of months. Don

Received the Leather Belt you made for me
Very nice indeed. The leather tooling is simple, clean, and very attractive - as is the belt and the wonderful patina on the leather is great. Thanks.

Just a quick note to say thanks for a fine belt. The workmanship and quality of the leather are superb. I have been searching for quite some time for a belt to go with a special buckle I have had for many years. I am fortunate to have found your web site. You can be sure I will be contacting you again in the near future.
Thank you again.

Hello Henry: Just a note of thanks for making one heck of a ranger belt, as the Brits like to say, you are " Spot On ", meaning what you say you are going to do , you DO, thanks for the great belt, charlie, Lynton, Devon, U.K.

The belt you shipped me three weeks ago or so is perfect. I really like it, second I've gotten from you. Thanks.

Just a quick follow-up for you. I got the glasses case with a pocket in which you put a clip. It is absolutely perfect. You really do fine work. Thank you.
Philip

Dear Bill,
I just wanted to write and say how pleased I am with the ranger belt you made for me. It fits perfectly and I'm extremely pleased with the workmanship and materials used.
I had previously purchased a belt from a higher priced company in Santa Fe and was very disappointed in the workmanship. There is no comparison the the quality of the belt you made. I now know where to obtain my belts in the future. On future orders will you be the one that makes my belt or would I have to specially request that you produce it?
Thank you again.
Best regards,
Dave Pearman

Hi Henry,
I received the wallet a couple of weeks ago and I would like to thank you.The quality and craftsmenship of the wallet was awesome!I'll be doing business with you again soon...this time I need a new belt.

The quality of the harness leather belt you made for me far surpasses anything available at any price from any store.This belt is a thing of beauty and a joy to wear; it is great to find quality merchandise that is made in AMERICA. I look forward to doing business with The Leather Goods Connection in the future.

Sorry for getting back to you late but wanted to say thank you for the excellent service and especially the excellent belt. It is rigid enough to hold a holster for conceal carry with no problem and good looking enough for me to wear every day to the office. Your shipping was incredibly fast. The price was a deal! Thanks for the great product!
George

Bill, The belt arrived yesterday. Great work - exactly as it looks on your web site. I'm very pleased and will be back. Many thanks, Bill

Dear Henry,
I got the belt this morning (Saturday) and I�m really happy with it. It fits well and is very comfortable. You don�t feel like you�ve been tied in the middle like a sack of grain. The other thing I really appreciate is that you use USPS priority mail. It gets here so quickly. I order stuff from other suppliers and it would fit in a small box like you used or smaller and they insist on using UPS who ships it out to Seattle and then lets it sit until the five days plus a weekend have gone by and then they deliver it, very frustrating. So thank you, it has been a pleasure doing business with you and I really appreciate your workmanship. The first comment from my wife was �that�s really concealed, you hardly notice the black holster against the black belt and black shirt.� I can�t get over what just a little extra width does for comfort. It will definitely last the rest of my life.
Thanks again,
Bruce Pettersen

Thanks Henry I received my belt today. It is gorgeous, and the quality is immediately evident. This coupled with the incredible speed with which I received it means that you can expect me to come back for all my belt related needs. Thank you! Your newest loyal customer, Derek

just to let you know, i bought a belt from you just around two years ago, wear it everyday, and its as strong as the day i bought it....i absolutely love it.

Henry,
I purchased a custom ranger belt, along with another simpler one, and a business card holder from you this past Fall. Absolutely top-notch craftsmanship. I don't imagine that anything finer is available.
Now, my wife wants a new brown leather belt, and I immediately knew where I needed to go... Store-bought just isn't good enough anymore! Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Adam R. Parr

Received belt Saturday 12 January. Very good indeed. Thanks again.

MY NEW BELT IS EXCELLENT AND THE CRAFTSMANSHIP IS BEYOND COMPARISON. I WILL ORDER A NEW PURSE FOR MY WIFE NEXT. WE HAVE ALSO ORDERED BELTS AND HIS AND HERS WALLETS. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
JOHN

Dear Henry, I received the belt, that I ordered, yesterday. I got it for my Husbands birthday. He has been searching years for a really good leather belt. I am so happy to say, when he opened his new belt, he was VERY happy!!! He had to put it on right then, so he got his buckle, put it on the belt and slid it through the loops of his jeans. It fit him "like it was made for him"! When I told hin that it was made just for him, he was so happy! Thank you Henry for making such a quality product!!! I wouldn't hesitate to purchase other items from you! I will, indeed, pass your companys name and website on to my friends! I hope you have a wonderful day. Sharen White

Henry,
Thanks! The belt arrived Monday and it's fantastic!
Thanks,
Mike

That Sir, is a NICE belt. There will be more orders down the road.
Regards,
Dan McHarness

Henry,
I just received my belt in the mail. Great service for the holiday period. The tapered harness leather belt is absolutely way past my expectations. The workmanship is superb. The modification I ask for is perfect. You've gotten a new lifelong customer. Thanks so much. By the way the fit is perfect also, and all I did was follow your instructions on the web. Thanks again!
Mack Sherman

Henry,
The wallet came in today and it is absolutely perfect! It is identical to wallets made by high end japanese companies like Red Moon at a third of the price! Excellent work, my friend!

The Quality of the handmade belt I bought would be hard to match,it is a joy to wear
John Hogg

Thank you, Bill. It arrived yesterday, fits perfectly, and is both beautiful and elegant.
Have a good Christmas!

Hi Henry,
I just wanted to let you know that your belts are great. They have worn very, very well and still look almost new after much use. Too many times we only tell people when they don�t perform to our expectations in some way, but I wanted to let you know that your product is excellent.
Merry Christmas!
Thanks,

The belt looks great and I had no problem adding our silver fittings. The only thing I may need a little help with is the tip. I just think you will be able to fit it on better than I have. I may send it to you after Christmas to see what you think. Thank you very much. My husband will be very happy when he sees it on Christmas. Maggie

I received the wallet yesterday, thank you very much. I like how it looks and it is well made. I know the recipient will enjoy it especially since it is made in America!!!
Paula

First thing my 6 year old said when he saw the belt is "I want one". What better complement than that.
A true work of art. It is beautiful. I will be back again. Thanks.
Stan

Wow. This wallet easily met and exceeded my expectations. Very impressive workmanship. My girlfriend will definitely love it.
Thank you Henry. I'll be sure to pass the word about your site.
Cheers,
Jason

Just wanted to let you know I've been thoroughly enjoying this wallet. I especially love the leather lining you used on the inside. Thanks!

Dear Bill;
I recieved my black work belt today and just let me say WOW! It is so perfect! Exactly what I was looking for/wanted! You did a wonderful job and quickly too! I am so pleased with it, i am exstatic!!!!! It is a christmas gift for my father and it couldn't be more perfect! Thank you so much for the wonderful service and excellent quality, I will recommend you to anyone I know looking for a good quality belt. Thank you so much!

Bill,
Thanks for your prompt service. The belt is precisely what I wanted: excellent quality, fit, and finish.
Kindest regards,
George Roszkowski

Hi Henry,
The wallets arrived more than a week ago, but I was out of town, so didn't get to see them until now.
They are wonderful as expected! Thank you so much :) You are a great master!
-Olesya

Bill and Henry.Just to let you know I received this order and I am more than satisfied!Even my wife took a second look when I removed the belt from the box. I think it would be next to impossible to find craftsmanship and quality of the likes you have built into this piece in anywhere here in Canada.I will most definitely be back.Made in America or Made in the USA and made by who should be stamped somewhere on this product so when people ask ,and they will, I can try and educate them on the merits of not buying made in China or made in Japan or from other copycat society.Not only kind regards but best regards.Bob Graham

Dear Henry,
Wallet arrived yesterday, is beautiful. He loves it!
Thank you,
Megan

Dear Henry,
Hi! I just wanted to let you know my order arrived safely today. Thanks for offering these for sale. My father-in-law has been looking for this type of keychain for several years. His old one is worn out and he really loves it!
Blessings,
Deborah Reames

Bill,
I want to drop you a note that I love your belts. They fit and are made to perfection. I am glad that you are keeping up the leather tradition in America. Keep up the good work.

Fritz Washabaugh

Awesome Product, Much better than in pictures, it seems like this belt will outlive me..
thanks again..
-Phil

I have never done this before, but... what promped the following email? Wondered myself so looked up the order. From the comments window on that order:

Hi. The "actual" measurement on my belt to the hole I use is closer to 37.25" So let's go with that.

I'd like to have the holes in this new belt at a closer spacing than one inch to allow for more accurate adjusting based on daily gut size! If you can space the holes as close as .5" that would be good---if not, then whatever you think is best for "close" spacing on the holes. You can also increase the number of holes for this closer spacing if you think that will work better--7 or 9 holes (sets of holes on this double-tang buckle).

On color--somewhere on the darker side of "medium" brown? Could be my monitor, but "dark brown" looks really dark (almost black.) I'm not super picky on the color--just looking for a classic "brown" belt.

Hope all this info helps. I'm delighted to find a place to actually FIND a belt that's 2.5 inches wide! I've been looking for one forever! It's to wear with a kilt!

Thanks! Looking forward to my new kilt belt.

Here is the unsolicited follow up email:

I didn�t think there were companies like you left any more�high-quality product, no hassles, promptly shipped, custom made, fair price� C�mon! I would have settled for just one of those things and thought it was great. I�m an adept internet shopper, and I�ve never had a better buying experience. Well done, my friend.
All the best,
Tracy Collins

Got home last night and the belt was waiting for me. Absolutely beautiful work. Thank you so much. Can't wait until I can order my next one.
Again, thanks
Mike caldwell

Bill..
It arrived today, and looks great. Thank you much for the quick and reliable service, especially for something clearly crafted with so much care - I'll be back soon for another!
Chas

Henry,
I received my bags, and backback on Saturday. What can I say, your bags are gorgeous. I expected something nice, but what I got was beyond that. I will definately purchase from you again. Thank you so much. It is nice to know that, that kind of craftsmanship is still out there.
Tracy L Hoffman
Mohrsville, PA

Bill,
The belt came today, just want to tell you what nice work you did, and the quality is the best. Any belt you buy in a store, comes apart after very little use. I will be ordering another belt soon. thanks again for the great work.
Bob

I got the belt today. I love it it looks great. Thanks so much. We will do more business. JGB

Henry, Received my bag today and it is well worth the wait. I'm a real pocketbook collector and the two I have of yours are by far my favorites. I have a lot of Vera Bradley bags but when I think of what I spend on them, I could skip two and buy myself another one of yours. Thanks for keeping me informed as to where the bag was. It was well worth the wait. Barbara

Henry,
Your products are FANTASTIC!! Thanks for the fast shipping too.
Sincerely,
Veronica

Bill,
My wife called me yesterday to let me know that the belt had arrived. Her response to it as she pulled it out of the box was the same as mine .......WOW! I really due appreciate all the time and effort you spent with me on the leather swatches and online Q&A. I truly am pleased. I will not hesitate to recommend your services to anyone who appreciates such dedication to one's trade.
Thank You,

Henry,
I received the belt today and upon initial inspection and fitting I am very pleased with the construction, fit, and finish. I tried it on with my holster underneath and it fit beautifully. Thank you for a great product and you can anticipate more business from me as your belt and service are both superb.
Regards,
Steve

Dear Bill,
The belts you made for me have arrived quickly and safely.
They are absolutely fantastic and I'm very pleased with every detail of my transaction with you.

Today I received my custom designed belt that you created for me......... BEAUTIFUL just as I fully anticipated and you came through with the final creation with flying colors. Great color finish and decorations nicely cast brass buckle. What can I say but thank you for sharing your expertise in the creation of my belt.
Your offerings and finished product are the best I have seen. It took time searching the web and finally found your site, it was worth the time searching to find you and get something I will treasure.
I will be sure to share your address and my experience with anyone looking for great leather craft.
Thanks so much: geo Hoffman

Great. Thanks.
I am replacing a belt my wife bought me for Christmas this year (bless her). After a few months it started falling apart. It was getting to the point where I feared it would completly fail in the middle of the day, and leave me beltless. Sure enough, it was made in China. That made 3 articles of clothing in the past year, that fell apart, and all from China. I now look at the tag before I purchase.
Skip

This is a gifted craftsman with excellent customer service. I now have two exquisite handbags at a very reasonable price, given the workmanship. The website is an education in itself.
Linda

Henry - I have put my new bag to work and it is perfection.
Thank you,
Randi Anderson

Thanks guys.
This is my third belt and my second ranger belt. I am not replacing one, just adding one of a different color. They all fit perfectly and look great. My dad always wore one and if he were alive today I would order him one.
Gary

Dear Henry,
My new purse arrived in the mail today. The leather and craftsmanship are beautiful to see and feel! I can't wait to carry it tomorrow and for many many days to come. Thanks so much.
Sincerely,
Linda Davis

I never replied to you on this... Thank you very much. The belts are well loved and worn. I appreciate your excellent service, will recommend you to others!
Melissa

Hi Henry,
The belt and wallet arrived on Friday. Both are fantastic. My wife is jealous of the purple belt and wants one for herself, so we may have another order for you shortly.
Thanks lots,
Aaron

A great belt and so inexpensive for a UK buyer, for such fine-worked leather. Thank you very much indeed.
Christopher Maytum

I purchased your ponderosa truckers wallet some time ago. I am a biker and carry it with the leather lanyard every day. The quality was outstanding, and I would recommend it to any one who likes quality leather. The only modification I made was to put a snap on the bottom to seal the wallet shut. I would like to see one with a zipper all the way around and I would snap one up in a hurry. Keep up the great craftsmanship.

Calvin Harris

Hi Henry - Got my new drawstring/sling backpack yesterday and I love it. The designer leather translates nicely in this bag with just the right balance of heft and "slouchiness". I particularly like the easy access of the drawstring top and the roomy pockets on the side. And your new logo is great - classy and discreet. As always, couldn't be happier.

Joanne

Hey, I have just received your Ponderosa 10-2 wallet and am writing back to let you know what a fine product it is. I am truly satisfied with my purchase and my friend's recomendation was not wrong. I will be looking forward to breaking this wallet in and seeing how it withstands the cold canadian winters. Your craftsmanship and attention to detail is impeccable and I have never seen such a unique wallet in person before. Everything is fantastic and I cannot wait to see how this beautiful leather ages. My next belt purchase will be from you for sure! It was a pleasure doing business with you. Cheers.
Adam

I LOVE it!!!

Thank you!

You're a genius!!!

Jayne

Henry,
I�m sure you have seen your share of belts, but I wanted to let you know that I finished the belt project I started using supplies from your page and am very pleased with the quality of your products and the product they yielded. I think I am going to turn this into a hobby and try some different belts with stains and such once I get the funding to do so. The leather you use is pretty awesome. Thanks again, �Andrew Reineberg

I've been looking for a first quality belt for years-this is it!Really pleased!
David Russell

Henry,
I just wanted to make sure I thanked you for the bag. I have been away and have been very busy! I wanted to express to you that once again you do superb work. I love a simple bag made with quality workmanship and beautiful leather which is what you bring to the table. Believe it or not that is extremely hard to find. I bring my bags around the world and am always PROUD to carry them. Thank you and Have a good day!!

Kim

Henry,
Just wanted to let you know that the belt arrived today and I really like it. I am basically replacing a life long favorite and kept the old buckle. The new belt is even nicer than my old one, which had been the best that I had ever owned. Glad that I found your web site. Keep up the great work.
Greg

Mr. LeClaire,
I received my belts today, and words can't express my thoughts. The mind can come up with some great pictures and ideas, but your product is beyond my imagination. You could have charged me twice as much and I still would have been impressed. It is truly custom. They fit perfect, the color and workmanship is second to none. I would like to thank you for getting me my money's worth, to often today are we disappointed with custom items, but you truly have a God given talent. Again, thank you so much.

Adam Moseley

I just want you to know that both of my orders have arrived. I am more than pleased. "Elegant" is the only word I can think of to describe my bags and accessories.
Thank you for the lovely items. (Oh! I did think of another word...)
Vivian E. Dixon

Bill,
The belt arrived and it is superb. It is so well made that I really don't see how the bridle dress belt could be any better. Thank you for your kind and patient emails and for making something that I will get much enjoyment wearing. I know that any future leather needs will be crafted by your company. Kindest regards...Tom

Henry,
Received the belt you made very very pleased with it so much so I'll be back in the near future to order again
Thanks Again
Kevan O'Malley

Mr. LeClaire,
My two belts arrived promptly in the mail today. Sturdy and handsomely crafted, these are probably the finest belts I've ever purchased and worth every penny spent. A fine example of quality American craftsmanship. Thanks again!
~Dan Vallejo

Hey,
Great job! I absolutely love the belt. I'm so glad you made it and you did it so fast!
Tana

Dear Henry,
I love the wallet! I probably should mention this work of art in my will so that they won't fight over it when I'm gone. On second thought, I just may take it with me. Thank you so much...Tom

Leather Goods Connection is the most unique leather company on the web. Very few companies will take a custom buckle and apply it to their own custom made belts. Henry Hibbard is a master at his trade and works well with his customers. Thank you very much for a job very well done once again.
Andrew J. Coleman

Hi Bill---
Received my new belt a couple weeks ago. Love it love it. Have had several compliments. You promised and you delivered. Service was excellent also. I will pass along all info regarding your fine company. Maybe I can sell something for you!!!
Thanks again,
Lowell Eddy

Hello Mr Hibbard,
You made me a beautiful alligator purse about a year ago with my hide. I get many compliments and enjoy it tremendously.
I forwarded the scraps to your friend in TN and had wallets made. I have lost his name & address & phone number. I think it is Dark's Leather. Could you forward that to me?
Thank you very much.
Ronda

Henry,
The bag arrived and it's lovely.
Thanks.
Helen S. Schwartz, Ph.D.

Received my work belt today. The craftsmanship is perfect and the color is beautiful. I'm going to enjoy this for many years to come.
Lloyd M.

Hello Henry.
I received the belts and handbag you made for me. Oh my gosh. We ARE talking gorgeous. Of the belts the braided is my favorite due to the color of the leather. WOW what fabulous work.
I am not a handbag girl so it takes a bit to impress me. I'm impressed. Beautiful clean lines. I wasn't sure I liked the colors I chose when I first opened the package but I like the mix the more I look at the bag. Kind of understated classy, I think. I'm sure that you have a lot to do w/that.
Thanks again.
Becky

Its a great pleasure to have the benefits of Web shopping and personal service at the same time. Not many craftsmen offer Henrys expertise via the Internet--or even in person.
Michael Putzel

Henry,
It's a great wallet totally love it, it fits perfectly in my back-pocket and it just has a great feel to it.

Dear Henry...Thank you VERY much for a quality product...I haven't had access to leather products such as yours in a very long time. Leather was easy to find in Miami and I have no shops to deal with in Mobile, AL. I will use you again for future leather needs. Thanks again...Jim Swagerty

Henry,
Just got 'em in the mail today. They're excellent -- exactly what I wanted!
Thanks,

I want to tell you how much I am impressed with your cigarette case. I ordered one then wanted more colors they are just perfect.

Caroline

Mr. Hibbard:
Just had to send a note of thanks for the incredible wallets I just received. Before I opened them I could smell the new leather and knew then I had a great piece of quality in my hands. I have the Ponderosa and Working Man wallets and the quality and workmanship are hands down the best I have seen. I know these will last for many years to come. I have owned many over the years and usually get a couple of years wear out of them before they fall apart. One recent purchase lasted about six months and it came out of one of the better so called leather stores. I am physically active on my job and need a wallet that holds up to those demands and I can tell these will do just that. I ordered both since I couldn't decide which one I liked better and now have to decide which one to use. I think I will use the Ponderosa only on the weekends!
The skill, quality and workmanship show on your products and I will carry them with pride.
Much continued success,
Kelly Greer

Henry,
I got my Working Man's Hand Sewn Wallet today. I'm very impressed with the color and general construction. Very solid and rugged. And the wallet shipped Monday and arrived today, Wednesday. Outstanding service and product. I will recommend your products to my friends and family.
Thanks again,
Mike

Hello, Bill,
My belt came yesterday. What an excellent job. It's a very handsome item, and I will be recommending you highly. My girlfriend is eager to see what you offer in the way of bags and wallets. I am very satisfied.
All the best,

Bill,
The belt is absolute gorgeous! Thank you for your prompt service, attention to detail & extraordinary product.

I received it today. You did an excellent job. It's a fine belt and appears to be more than capable of fulfilling it's intended purpose as a gun belt. I will contact you in a few weeks and let you know how it holds up after breaking it in. Thanks for the good work and prompt service.
Len J

Hi Bill, I would like to thank you for the wonderful quality of the belt you made for me. I wanted to wait a month or so to make sure I still loved it and I do. Now I need a wallet to match.
Kevin Core

I received my belt in fine shape. I really like it, and I hope to order another in the near future.
Thanks, Bret

I have purchased two wallets from LeatherGoodsConnection.com one was for personal use and the other as a gift. The quality is excellent and well worth the money spent. I am considering purchasing a third within a few months as another gift. I just can't speak enough about how impressed I am with the service and the quality. Excellent job.
Aaron

Received - great belt! I may have to order a couple more in other color combos. Thanks.
Paul A. Krupela

Received the belt and it looks great! Thanks for great workmanship and service. Really appreciate your use of Chicago screws instead of cheap snaps.
Take care,

Hi Henry,
Just wanted to drop a note of Thanks! I love my new bag. While I was waiitng for your website to take orders again, I looked around and found absolutely nothing and now I have the perfect bag for me.
Thanks again, Jackie

Henry.
The Orange belt is perfect! Thanks! for making it so organge and getting it to me right on time. I really appreciate it and look forward to making more belt buckles in the future.

I love the wallet. The quality is better than i expected. Well worth the price. THANK YOU!
Scott Hamilton

Bill - we received the belt yesterday. Really outstanding workmanship! Thank you. Alan Andersen

I received my order promptly and wanted to say thank you and tell you how perfect the items are. I've been looking for the key holders since Volvo used to give out something similar in the 90's. Again, I appreciate the swiftness of the shipment and quality of the items. I have your site bookmarked!
Sincerely,
Clare Wylie

Hi Bill,
I just received my harness belt and I am pleased beyond expectations...beautiful! Let me tell you, I have done business with other leather providers and their work is but a product. Your leather work is craftsmanship and I can't express just how much I appreciate having it. Thanks also for the quick response. Next, I would like you to design a retro 60s' wrist-watch band for me... but first I need to buy the watch.

Richard Sessler

Hi Henry, I received my belt and needless to say I am very pleased and impressed with the quality and craftsmanship of it. It is not what one sees in local stores, Orvis or LL Bean. I wish to dress up the belt as I feel the brass roller buckle does not do the superb leather justice. Please let me know the cost of the #1, 4 pc.,3/4" buckle set Thanks again for a superbly crafted product. Best regards, Jerry

I have received my long long belt very pleased with it and craftmenship
thanks
Alfred Busch

Got My Wallet today!!
AND I'm a Mighty Happy Puppy!!
Thanks Bob

Bill,
I received my belt today - excellent workmanship! I am very pleased. I have a number of ranger belts, purchased over the years, but none can match yours. Thank you for the prompt turn-around on my order. You can be assured that I will be ordering another in the near future.
Great service - thank you.
Randy Dill

Henry,
My wife, Debi, gave me one of your ranger belts for my birthday. It is truly a work of art! I'm hardly a cowboy, although I've lived in Texas all my life. I'm not wearing boots for anybody, but I did go buy some light brown shoes with wheat stitching to match the billets and a Zuni inlaid buckle set to top it off. Thanks for everything,
Tim Turner

Henry.
I received my black knapsack (large backpack) yesterday. Workmanship amd design are top knotch. I was not disappointed and my expectations have been exceded. Thanks again. I'm sure this ol' bag and I will see more then a few miles that we both have left on this earth. Then hopefully the bag will pass to my son, where it can go on riding from my Road King to his.Okie doke. Be well.
Until the next time.....Bob Gaube

Thanks for the 1st class belts I have got today ! Fantastic quality !!

One of the best sites I've seen on the internet for ordering a custom made item to fit you properly, and for selection, quality, and customer satisfaction. I would rate this merchant very high in all areas for this type of purchase. A pleasure to find and do business with this store.

Hey Bill!
I got the belts ('straps') a week or two ago and have been meaning to write to tell you how great they are -- in fact, they're AWESOME. Thank you for an excellent product and wonderful service -- much appreciated.

Henry,
I just wanted to let you know that I received the belt today. it was far better quality than I had expected. I plan to purchase more belts from you in the future. I really appreciate the speedy delivery. again I can't say enough about how happy I am about the whole experience. we need more sites on the internet that are as prompt as you have been.
respectfully,

Henry,
I received it today! I just wanted to tell you that it is beautiful - materials, construction, aesthetics. Thank you very much. Now I will have to go back to your site and order some belts!
All the best,

Belt arrived today, and it fit just right and looks great. Thanks.

Wonderful wallet and belt. Quick shipping, good price, great quality. Would definitely purchase from again.

I received my handbag yesterday and I love it! You are a wonderful craftsman! Even though your website is excellent, It's very difficult to have a visual from the internet. I am totally satisfied and feel it is even better than the photos on the web.
Thank you. I plan to use it for many years to come!

Henry,

Thanks for the wallet I just recieved. I have ordered several wallets from you now (one for myself and the rest gifts for others). The quality of your products is superior. The only way to appreciate this fully is by seeing and using them in person. Thanks again for an excellent service. You can expect more orders from me. Thanks again, Jeremy

Bill and Henry,

Hi Henry, I received my wallet today----very nice----can't believe how fast it got here!!

I recieved my wallet and belt Tues. the 26th of December. Thank you for the prompt delivery, for two very fine products, and for keeping the art of craftmanship alive in this country. If I ever need replacement for my wallet and belt, I will surely be a returning customer.
Happy New Year,

Thank you so much for your quick service. In spite of my ordering a custom belt at the last minute, it arrived in time for Christmas. It is exactly what my fianc� wanted. He's ordered numerous other custom belts and the one you made is by and far the best. Thanks again,

Hello Henry,
I received my coin purse today and it is perfect - a dead ringer for the one I lost a week ago today in a taxicab in Zurich Switzerland. I ordered a replacement purse on the day I returned and have received it already. Isn't the Internet wonderful?

Irwin Kraus

Heya, Bill
The belt is awesome! It's a dead ringer for the old one, and I'm really happy about the polished back. I'm going to get one for my brother for his birthday (which is christmas). I'll get the measurements and place the order tonight. Thank you very much for the speedy delivery of this quality piece. I absolutely love it.

Want to thank you for the quick service and outstanding workmanship on my Ponderosa wallet. It has exceeded my expectations. I've received many compliments and I look forward to many years of service/use from it.
Thanks,

Dear Henry -
Just wanted to let you know that I received the belt yesterday and love it! The loop hangers are a nice design and carry the weight of the gear just fine. This makes three belts and one checkbook from LGC, each better than their store bought counterparts. I appreciate the care you take with your work and remain your loyal customer.
Best regards,
Mike

Hi Henry,
I just received the new belt you made for me from extra thick gun-belt leather. Wow, it is FABULOUS!!! I absolutely LOVE the thickness of the leather - it's so sturdy!
It's just wonderful. Thanks very much.
Best,
Greg

Bill,
The belt arrived Saturday. I've gotta tellya, a belt's not a belt unless it's _real_ leather! Your belt is perfect in every way! Believe it or not, your belt is only the 2nd I've had since I made my 1st 5 braid back in '73! I used to do leather in the early '70's, tooled belts, purses, clogs, etc. I remember cutting belts and other patterns for purses and clogs, watchbands from tanned hides, dying the leather, tooling and the like. I don't miss stained fingers, but I kinda miss the feel of working with the leather, and yes, the braiding of belts too. Now I'll hand rub a little mink oil into your belt and hopefully this belt will last 33 years, like my 1st. I'm certain your belt will outlast me and my grandkids will find it after my passing and say, "Cool! I wonder how they made that!" It's great to have a real belt again!
Handcrafted is always the best!
Thanking you kindly!
Dave

Hello Henry.
I recieved my order thank you, and wanted to send a quick note to say how nice the merchandise is. The biker wallets are well made and of quality leather, and the trucker wallet is just beautiful.....gorgeous kid leather, wonderful interior and perfectly detailed with the coins.
Many many thanks.
Merry Christmas and best wishes for the New Year.

Hi - I tried to email yesterday, but I don't think it was successfully delivered- not sure. I received the backpack - it is wonderful! The workmanship is beyond compare - you are truly an artist. Thank you, and I will be returning - after I finish buying stuff for everybody else. Really like your website and your style of communicating w/ the readers - you are a really cool guy, Thanks!

I just received the backpack - it is absolutely gorgeous! The workmanship is incredible - not one single stitch out of line! I am very impressed and will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you!

Dear Henry:
Just received the belt today. Fit, finish, craftsmanship are all superb. Thank you, you are a true craftsman.
If I have a few $$$ left after Christmas, I will probably order another, but truck repairs must come first I'm afraid.
Thank you again and I will pass your card along.

Thanks for my really stunning, classic large equestrian handbag, Henry. I had it made with a plain flap (no closure), and it's exactly what I was looking for. Lots of little nooks and cranies to put stuff and keep it organized, and simple lines that never go out of style. Perfect!

Thanks for the chain wallet! It's perfect!

Thank goodness for the American craftsman.

Hi Bill,
I got the belt OK last time I was in England. Wonderful bit of kit it is too. I'm very pleased with it. You assumed correctly with the centre bar buckle in that 2 floating keepers were required.
It's a pleaseure doing business with you and I have no doubt we will do more business in the future.

My handbag is home now. Thanks for the repair . . . it's amazing! I really had to look CLOSE to find it. And you even returned the little yellow clip that I had attached my note with . . . I wouldn't have missed it, but thanks just the same. Anyway, thanks again for restoring my bag to it's original beautiful self! The substitute I used was a distant second!

Henry,
The wallet I ordered from you is exactly what I was looking for. It should hold up well and I have showing it off to all my friends. It is breaking in nicely and becoming more comfortable in my pocket. I have ordered a better quality chain that I believe will compliment the wallet nicely. I placed an order for a 15" King's Braid chain in Stainless Steel from Dreamseeker, you can view an example of it here: http://www.maileofthedreamseeker.com/designs/kingsbraid.html Thank you for your fine products and excellent costumer service. I will certainly buy from you again and tell all my friends about you.

I really appreciate the obvious concern you have demonstrated in our discussions involving the crafting my belts. Craftsmanship and customer service are pretty much lost arts anymore.

I will be sending pictures to Henry this week of my wallet to see what his take is on this project!

Thanks again and look forward to doing business with you soon

Just got my handbag yesterday. I LOVE it!! It is so much nicer than you could ever depict on your site. Really love the lining material.....That's not going to rip or tear like the flimsy stuff you see in most purses! And I don't know if those "key leashes" were standard for you or not, but if you put them in just for me, VERY much appreciated!!

Thanks so much!! Couldn't be happier with it!

Hi Mr. Hibbard!
I love your website :)
I absolutely chuckled the whole time I was reading your "ordering info" section. Until of course, I have to put my own question into words; trying very hard not to sound like one of those idiots...
I don't know if you'll be able to help me. I have had a heck of a time finding a Chicago Screw that will fit my friend's belt. Do you sell these screws individually? If you do, can you tell me how to measure them so I get the correct size - I've tried two already and if it's not right in front of me it's difficult to gauge. I do know that it is silver or nickel, not brass, but that's about all I know. If you need to sell them in small bundles I would still be interested, I guess a few spare screws couldn't hurt! (I guess we have all been there...)

I am not in any huge rush, please contact me, any form, whenever it's convenient for you! Thanks in advance :)

Sincerely,

Jenny Nielsen

Henry,
Thanks for hangng in there with me, I know it was a probally tougher than most orders.

I appreciate it and will be looking forward to getting the belts.

Just wanted to say I received the wallet on Friday. It's just what I wanted and it's even nicer in person than it shows on the website. I'm just thrilled! I hope my brother will like it as much as I do - I'm sure he'll love it.

Subject: Fish Skin Wallets
Greetings Henry,
A subject from the past eh?
Prior to having you make wallets for us, I bought a handbag for my wife, a 2 pocket zippered handbag in brown. The bag has been fantastic and still shows no signs of wear. Truly a great investment, but I'm sure you hear that all the time.
Anyway, Karen managed to catch the strap in a car door and it is now cut, half way through. I need another strap, in black.
Please let me know the price of a replacement strap so I can order one.
Haven't had much luck with the wallets, but it was a good try. I've carried the prototype you made since the time I received it. The leather is wearing very well and the finish is amazingly durable. It is really a great product...
Let me know on the handbag strap.
Thanks,
Dave

Hello Bill,
Received belt today and it is beautiful. You are to be congratulated. Great craftsmanship. Thank you!
Dick Morrow

Good morning Bill,
Just to let you know that the (Dark Brown 1 �" / Brass Buckle) leather belt that I ordered late last month had arrived over the weekend.
I had looked for a plain leather belt over here in the UK to replace the one that I've had for over 15 years. All the belts that I had seen were either fairly poor quality, thin material or just looked too flashy (Coloured studs, stripes and buttons etc...)
The belt is exactly what I was after and your craftsmanship is first rate. I'll be able to wear the belt in a fortnight, as it's a birthday present and if anyone comments on it, I'll give them your details.
Thanks once again for a top service and a quality item.

Best regards
James Ramsdale

Hi, Henry:
I received the buckle and Chicago screws today. I must tell you that I was not just pleasantly surprised, but actually very much impressed by your attention and your service. You were about the 10th belt maker I found on the web; but the only one who seemed to care for an unusual order.
Let me promise that if I ever need another piece of leather goods, be it a bag, a custom belt, whatever, you and your company will be the first and only one I contact. Your web site shows the same care, and is funny to boot. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Again, my thanks to you. If you want to include this letter, or parts of it, as a reference, feel free to do so.

Henry,
I received my handbag on September 28th and it's great. I'm very impressed with the quality of the product and the leather itself. You were right, I am very pleased with it and I will not be returning it. Thanks again and maybe I can get some of my friends to order from you too.

Sincerely,
Lynda

Thank you for making these wonderful products. I was thrilled to find your site. About a year ago I bought some cheap imported belts that quickly disintegrated. So I recently bought two of your belts. I've been very happy with them so far. You make and sell excellent products. Thank you.

Hi,
My tapered harness leather belt arrived. Wow do my custom Hopi conchos and ranger set look great on this. Measurement info was right on.
I'll be ordering a tapered ranger belt soon -- for another custom set. Yeah, it helps to have Native American friends who are artists.
Mary Ann Unger

Bill
just got back in town from vacation and my ranger belt was waiting. I have searched for years for the "perfect belt". I own a half dozen various ranger belts, and while they are nice, they all leave something to be desired. Let me compliment you on the perfect belt. I could not ask for anything more. Even the 4 piece buckle set rivals a 4 piece silver Vogt set that I own in looks. I tried it on with my sidearm and I am 100% satisfied with how sturdy the belt is under the weight of a pistol, magazine, handcuffs, cellphone, etc.

Your website is extremely accurate in depicting your merchandise and the sizing instructions are near idiot proof. In the age of shady internet vendors it is refreshing to find someone who can back up their claims with top notch quality. Money well spent. - A customer for life.

Hi Henry!
Thank you so much for the leather envelope you made for me! I received it in the mail today and it is absolutely perfect! I think I would be interested in another one, soon. The craftsmanship is unbelievable and I am so impressed at how great it looks. I told my sister about it and I think that when I do make another order, it may be for more than one.

Much Appreciated!!!!

Bill,
We received the belt today. Thank you so much for the fine work! My son is very pleased with the belt. And I am so glad you took the initiative to add a keeper. I hadn't thought the way the buckle worked would require one, but realized after attaching it, that it in fact, does! So thank you for thinking of that, too.
Sincerely,

Hello Bill-

My new belt came this afternoon. It is EVERYTHING that I had hoped for ... an exact duplicate of one given to me in 1972. The only difference between the new belt and old one is that the new one is 2" longer. I am hoping that this belt will last as long as the last one ... if so, I will never have to replace it because it will outlast me.

Thank you for the great service and great product!

Dear Henry, I just received the order i placed on july 29th today is aug, 2nd. I wish i would have found your website in April. I placed an order on Lollipopleather.com for a wallet for my husband for our anniversary. The anniversary came and went. E-mail after E-mail were exchanged with them, excuse after excuse. As of the 28th of july 3 months after placing my order, the last straw was they are in the process of moving. The next day i find your site, what a god send i place my order and in 4 days i got my order. 4 days from Georgia 3 months and counting from Florida. My husband loves his "GIFT"

I give you 10 star rating I will order from you again

Henry,

My girlfriend flipped over the Womens Clutch Purse Wallet. Shes a very hip girl, does most of her shopping in thrift stores, wears a strange assortment of jewelry Ive never been able to make sense of, and looks, in the end, terrific, but Ive always been afraid to buy things for her. Her pickiness is entirely unpredictable. And anyway, she loves the wallet. Uses it every day. Looks longingly at me when she pulls it out of her purse (one of many bought in thrift stores, incidentally). So, thank you. I think my next bad-purchase-choice will be more easily forgiven in light of this one.

Thanks again, Jonathan

You have made me the perfect hand bag. The workmen ship is great. Just the right size. I love the color of the leather. I am glad I went with the cedar as main color. The leather is so soft to the touch.
I am going to have you make me another one in the future. I will recommend your handbags to everyone that I know is looking for one. There is nothing like a hand made handbag. I have been looking for one like this for several years. I am glad I found your web site.

Thank you very much.

Dear Henry,

I have never waited for an order with such excitement and anticipation before. When my Maxi Tote arrived today all my expectations were fulfilled. I never had a chance to select exactly what I wanted in a bag -- down to the strap size -- and this is the bag I have been looking for. It compares favorably to the Coach bags I used to buy. Actually, I took a look at my old Coach "binocular bag" and your workmanship is not only better -- the lining, the D-rings, the straps -- but the price is more affordable. Thank you so very much.

I second that emotion on the Leather Hobo handbag... just received my black one yesterday and it's perfect. The size is just right - not too big or too small. And I love the flat bottom that sits nice and stable wherever you set it. Leather, workmanship, style... all excellent, and I couldn't be happier.

Henry,

I just received my forest green leather hobo handbag today. It is gorgeous and I can't stop touching it! Its funny how important it is to like my handbag, but given that its something I wear everyday, like a good pair of jeans, or a closer analogy, a good bra, I guess its not surprising. Its got to be comfortable, functional and personal and I have to love it or its worthless. So thank you for your fine craftsmanship. Its hard to convey how meaningful it is to me that I can turn away from the Targets, mall department stores or in this case previously, the Coach store, to buy something that is made just for me. I'm already looking forward to my next handbag....any chance you'll expand the range of leather colors available? There's nothing like a good red leather bag.

Thanks again!

Cynthia

(Now that's a feed back, that's going to be hard to beat. I told you I couldn't write this stuff myself.)

Thanks for the notice. Your website was a great selling tool. I looked at several stores and web sites for a good looking belt. Your website was very informative, had lots of pictures so I could get an idea about the product, and the ordering process was very easy. I am very excited about getting my hands on the finished product.

We received our squeeze purses. They are exactly what we wanted. We plan to order from you again in the future. Thank you for the terrific service!

I received the belt and I'm very happy with it. You do beautiful workmanship.
Thanks Bruce

Henry,

I should've sent you this note some time ago, but I work 12 hour shifts and lose track of days, sometimes. I wanted to let you know that the belt had arrived, and is very fine. It fits perfectly with my kilt, and a couple of folks have expressed interest in knowing where they could get one like it.

Thanks again for your time and your fine craftsmanship.

Henry,

Received my belt today. Fantastic workmanship. You were right about the screw studs on your website - much better than the press studs on my old belt. It really is a great bit of kit. Given the years my old, cheap belt lasted its quite possible I'll never need another. (Though maybe I'll come back to you for a second one in black).

Kind regards

Henry,

The belt fits great and looks great!! When I need another I'll be looking up your website again.

hi,
i purchased a leather belt from your company two years ago and i couldn't have been more satisfied. all my buddies go through their cheapie belts within months. mine is still in better shape than my friends'. my wallets, on the other hand, are not the same story. that's why i'm looking foward to purchasing a working man leather wallet from you guys. i had one question: is it possible to get the monogram gold letters on the inside of a working man wallet? i'd like to have my initials placed but i'm not sure if it's possible from your end. hope to hear from you soon.

Dear Henry,

I received my leather wallet and change purse/pouch today and I just wanted to let you know I am thrilled with both of them. The craftmanship of the wallet is just beautiful, and, in any department store this would've cost me 2-3 times more, and it probably would've been made in Asia somewhere. I've already asked many of my friends to visit your website for other goods.

Hope to buy goods from you again!

Hi Henry,

I just received the belt you made for me this afternoon. I thought the age of hand made, custom goods was long gone, but you have renewed my faith in the pristine craftsmanship and quality that is so often lacking in the vast majority of today�s products. Thank you so much for the belt; I truly do appreciate the work and care you put into your product and it clearly shows in the end result. I definitely plan on purchasing from you again, and you can be assured that whenever a friend of mine is looking for a quality item, I will refer them straight to you.

The quality of the leather and the workmanship were reminisent of the quality I was accustomed to while living in the U.K. in the late 1950s. The overall quality is worthy of the highest praise. The cost was remarkable for its fairness. I cuold not recommend it more highly.

Hi, Henry -

I received the goods today. The checkbook came out great! I like how you handled the custom compartments very much, and my wife is very pleased with it also. The belt is beautiful! One small catch is that the buckle I ordered for it attached at the midpoint and not the end as I thought, so I lost about an inch in length and am not quite center- hole on. This is definitely user-error on my part, but I am getting by on the #2 hole and am now motivated to take an inch or so off the ol' waist this spring... The alternative, I suppose, is another buckle and undoubtedly another belt. Not such a bad thing when you think about it.

Thank you very much for your quality workmanship, it is always a pleasure doing business with you.

Mike

Received it today thanks. My brother used to make these types of things, so I appreciate the hand-made effort. I got so annoyed when the belt I bought in a mall store turned out to be a cheap split leather, even though it was just the same cost as the one from you. I look forward to wearing this one, and maybe routing some business your way.

cheers

Henry: Thanks for the prompt response. I am working on my ranger belt design, I would like to include the Cognac Alligator billets if still available? In your opinion, would they contrast well w/ the bridle leather strap in dk. brown w/ blk stitching? As to buckle sets, I do not have one and would like to use one of yours, some type of western theme in a four pc. configuration, any suggestions are welcome I have several mass produced ranger style belts but after seeing your work on the Biker style belts you did for my car, I can no longer accept the factory stuff. Your belt work is the best, already visitors to my shop have commented on your work, as recently as this afternoon. I plan to order several belts from you and after I get "dialed in" on the ordering process, you'll hear from me again. For now I wish an attractive dress belt. I'm a bit of a "cowboy" and love the western theme's...Help...Thomas

Hello Henry:
I always liked ranger belts a lot but never have one (and I've been in Houston for about a year) Doing a bit of research, i dropped in your site.

First of all let me say I found your belts stunning!. I'm no expert, but never saw prettier belts before. And your page rocks too. I'm neither a law student, but reached the end of the pages.

It's impossible to ignore the huge amount of info and humor you gladly share. As I went on reading I realized how little do we know about leather care in general. I've copied everything (for my personal use) just in case i need it.

This being said, I'm interested in one of your great ranger belts. Trouble is I can only choose one (by now) My choice is the Burgundy Bridle leather belt with a silver buckle (end bar). I think you deserve to know what kind of people like your belts. Well, I'm 60.

Please quote total price including insured shipment to Barcelona, Spain (zip 08021). If I can buy it without having to sell the house, i'll send the measure, taked as you clearly explain in your page.

Thanks for your help and kudos for the belts!

Obviously I had not thought about looking on the internet to find a leather crafts-person such as Henry. I ordered the MAXI Tote bag with a couple of modifications and all were done to my satisfaction and joy! I no longer need to continue what seemed to be a never ending search for the handbag of my dreams.

Henry,
I am very grateful that I stumbled across your web page through eBay. I have been searching for a number of years for a leather handbag that had exactly what I required for the perfect handbag. I have a RELIC brand canvas bag, much smaller than the one I ordered, however the bag had what I wanted for a handbag for me.

I ordered the MAXI TOTE BAG with exactly the features I wanted. Do you know how difficult it is to find a handbag with straps that are not only adjustable, but will also fit over a bulky winter coat?

I love the handbag!! It is perfect and my search for the perfect handbag. When the time arrives for a "new perfect handbag" I will know exactly where to find it; at leathergoodsconnection.com.

I received both my belts in todays post.

I am very pleasantly surprised - "Practice makes perfect". This second belt is much better, if that is possible, than the first. The workmanship - Stitching, cutting (Especially the flare - An absolutely a perfect fit to my custom solid gold buckle), and general finish are simply outstanding. I realize that the flare portion was probably a pain in the butt for you, but I truly believe it makes all the difference in the world - Sets this belt far above others.

Henry,

I can't thank you enough for your fantastic quality. It's always scary ordering from an unknown - but you exceeded our expectations. My wife is thrilled with the two belts I ordered.

Alright, it has to be said: If you appreciate hand-crafted leather goods that exemplify a devotion to craftsmanship and a seasoned eye with attention to details and aesthetic sensibility, you cannot go wrong with Henry. I ordered 2 harness belts a few weeks ago and was so pleased to get them in the mail and start living with them. If you don't have piles of money to waste, if you love the idea of collaborating on a custom-made belt from scratch, if you are tired of settling for "good-enough" mass-produced, soul-less belts, then you really should consider ordering a belt here. You really feel like you are communicating with someone who cares about your requests and shares your interest in designing the perfect belt. Somehow that's all possible on-line! Thanks so much Henry--I'm really happy with the belts.

I ordered from this craftsman for the first time - a customized belt for use with a silver/turquiose buckle received as a gift. Having no similar belt to use for measuring, the web site was helpful in ordering the correct size.

I also used email for clarifications both on custom options before ordering and buckle installation after receiving the belt. Email responses were prompt and helpful.

The vendor sent emails confirming receipt of the order as well as when the completed belt was shipped.

Overall, this was an easy and accurate purchase of a custom crafted item. I would definitely use him again and recommend him for this type of merchandise.

This merchant is, without question, the best I have ever done business with. Quality of product was outstanding, response was the best, and the price was truly outstanding. We had searched through many stores, searching for the item, and Leather Goods had it exactly. We knew what we wanted and his web site matched perfectly. Until we looked at LeatherGoodsConnection, we wasted a lot of time and gasoline searching. Thank goodness for this vendor. We have a big family throughout the U.S. and intend to do more business with LeatherGoodsConnection, and will pass the good word to others.

I recently purchased a custom-made belt from LeatherGoodsConnection.com. The on-line instructions for ordering a custom belt were extremely clear and included definitions for terms I did not understand. The price was comparable and shipping costs reasonable. Ordering the belt with options was easy.

I received a e-mail confirmation of order receipt and another when the order was shipped. The belt arrived in the time advertised and was well packaged. The belt was made per my specifications.

This was my first purchase from this site and highly recommend it to others.

Hello Henry -

I received my handbag today (Nov. 21, 2005). The leather is beautiful and the craftsmanship is top notch! I am extremely pleased with my purchase and decision to seek out leather items "Made in the USA."

I was so excited about the bag, my husband asked me when I am planning to order my spring handbag!! You will definitely hear from me in the future.

Thank you for providing excellent customer service and a quality product.

Best Regards, Kaylene

Henry,

I received the Maxi Tote Thursday. It arrived in perfect condition. The bag is beautiful. All I could say when I saw it was �WOW!�. The leather is so smooth and the stitching is lovely. I am glad I decided to get the center divider. It makes it seem like 2 bags in one. The lining is great too. The size of the Maxi Tote is just right. Other bags I had looked at were either too large or too small. Thanks for all your hard work!

Hello Henry,

I just wanted to let you know I received my leather zip case today. I am very impressed with the workmanship and quality of this case. I bought the case for my cell phone...it is a perfect fit. So, I would like to make a suggestion: consider changing your product description to include cell phones as well as eye glasses. It is the perfect case for many cell phones and the smooth, soft interior will help prevent scratches to the easily damaged display screens. Just a thought!

Again, thank you for a very fine product.

Hi Henry,
Got the belt today. The quality is first class all the way. Your customers are right, there is no comparison between your belts and the "department-discount store" belts. I had also purchased a belt from a local uniform shop months ago as I was looking for a wider belt (1 3/4") and they were the only local place where I could find one. The belt was half as thick as yours and the finish cracked off. I will definitely be a repeat customer of your merchandise. Thanks for the ease of ordering as well. Your website makes it very convenient to order and you shipping time is excellent. Also, considering the quality of your belts, the price is more than worth it!

Hi Henry,

Apparently the belt was delivered to the City Hall mail room yesterday afternoon and I got it this morning, and is it a BEAUT'. Everyone in the office was also impressed.

You truly are a master artisan.

I've got to tell you, when I got the silver belt buckle as a birthday present years ago, I had no idea how or where to find a belt that would fit it. And back then, I was wary about ordering something like that on-line. I figured that a leather goods retailer would have to hold the buckle in their hands to find the proper belt and size to fit it.

When I phoned around trying to find someone who had anything remotely matching what I was looking for I ran into dead ends. Until one day I had the good fortune to have a leather goods dealer tell me "that buckle was designed for a ranger belt." Ranger belt? What the heck is that?

I knew I was at the end of my journey when I googled Ranger Belt and found your on-line store. After seeing your work and reading your straightforward descriptions of your work, I knew I had struck gold.

And now I have the proof. You've won me over. I just hope you have apprentices and journeymen if you ever decide to retire. (But honestly, Henry, don't even think of retiring.)

Thank you so much, and may you continue to prosper.

As soon as my City Handbag arrived, I began using it and I absolutely love it. The last shop where I purchased a handmade leather bag, it was unlined and unstructured. But your handbag is well designed and crafted, and it looks so beautiful and tailored. It's exactly what I've been looking for and couldn't find anywhere else. Having the custom options like the long shoulder strap and the brass fittings gave me just what I wanted at a reasonable price.

Hello Henry,
The wallet is great, thanks a lot! I already recommended you to a couple of my friends, so you may get some more business. I might have a few suggestions for changing the wallet the next time around. I didn't realize that one side of my wallet had leather pockets for credit cards. That might be an improvement, although I really should limit the number of things I carry in my wallet.

Anyway, I'm really happy with the wallet and look forward to using it. I'm sure it will hold up better than the wallets I've bought in the past.

To everyone out there who is thinking of putting in an order for a custom-made bag with Henry. Go for it! You will love the results. I have just received my commissioned bag and it is fabulous - far better than the original. The deep chocolate leather works very well with the silver hardware, and lighter stitching and the result is a bag that has a slap-bang, up-to-the-minute contemporary feel. The pebble-finish seems to be this season's "must-have", and the bag would truly not look out of place in a top department store. I am extremely pleased with the bag's chunky feel, down to its solid bottom complete with four feet, and sturdy handles. It is built to last.

Henry was great throughout the negotiation process, and answered all my queries patiently. Once he finished the bag he let me know that it was ready for shipment, and it arrived safely packaged, well within the 10 days he had specified.

Put simply, I'd seen enough on Henry's website to convince me that he could do what he said he could do, and in the end, I simply trusted in his workmanship. I was not disappointed.

I ordered a ranger style belt with a buckle set. I was surprized how soon I got the belt - it came in just 5 days, even though I requested a width of 1-5/8 and 7 adjustment holes instead of 5. The price was quite a bit below competitors, and I spent a week shopping around the internet. The belt is beautiful and obviously very high quality. It was everything he said it would be. I carry a gun on my belt in plainclothes every day. His website said that the thick harness leather he uses is perfect for this, and it is true.

Henry,
Sorry for the late post here but after getting your tapered belt and using as intended ( for a holster) I must say that this belt is second to none. I have a couple custom made holsters that I use and before getting your belt I was looking at belts made by famous holster makers that would cost up to twice the money and not one bit better than yours. I look forward to ordering one of your ranger belts. Keep up the good work.

I know they are craftman and not marketeers, but it it would be a good move to add a thank you (maybe stamped on a leather scrap} and also give some kind of discount on a future purchase. Real silver would be a nice option if price was reasonable. The product is of quality.

Hi Henry, I got the belt around noon today. Wow � it�s a beauty. It is everything you said it would be on the website. I wear plain clothes with a paddle holster and badge on my belt almost every working day of my life, and I can tell you this 1-5/8 width Harness leather ranger belt is the nicest, best looking, most solid feel belt I�ve worn. And you accommodated my special requests (1-5/8 width, and seven adjustment holes) and still managed to get the belt to me sooner than promised. You exceeded my expectations � that�s pretty refreshing.

Thanks!
Sgt. Stephen Guenther

Henry,
The belt arrived today. The dark brown and tan leather combination looks great. I installed the buckle and tip. I could not use my silver loops as the thickness of the belt leather made them to small for the belt tip.I had some dark brown leather loops which I used instead. The fit is perfect.

Thank you very much.

Leather Good Connection was the most easiest site to get around. And the small backpack I ordered is just the most ultimate bag. It fits all I need to carry in it. The leather is so supple...it feels like butta. Anyone looking for a great backpack will not be disappointed in this one.

Everything about my purchase from this company was very good. When it was determinied that there was a difference in the shipping charges posted on the site and the actual cost of shipping, I was sent an e-mail stating that the amount charged to me was less than that I had agreed to online. The product was shipped quickly and was exactly as pictured on the web site. I have absolutely no complaints about this purchase.

Henry:

There are not too many leather work craftmans who take pride in their work but you, are one of the few�Your work is above and beyond excellent! I ordered your small backpack and asked that the straps be shortened a little because of my height. I have a very petite frame and therefore would not need a strap that was too long. You did a superb job. The backpack is just the right length. Your workmanship is �perfect� and it shows how much pride you have in your craft right down to the soft supple leather you use, even right down to the decorative tabs on the zippers. I know that this small backpack will last a very long, long time.

Again, thank you very much.

Aloha from the State of Hawaii!

I recieved a personal letter from the owner/seller upon shipment of the order. Very professional and informative, when I then recieved the package it had his business card with a phone number and contact information if there was any concern. The product was well made, exactly as described on the site, and shipped well.

Henry,

I grew up in Norwich Connecticut and remember visiting your shop as a kid.

Black ranger belts are hard to find. I searched the web and liked your site the best. After ordering, I scrolled to the info about your company and what a surprise.

In college I wore a vest my Dad had bought at your store in the 70s and I'm sure he's still wearing belts you made (if not still carrying the wallet he got there). We have photos of my Mom with her purse you made too. I remember well visiting the shop and admiring the belt buckles and a pen that converted into a pipe (I must have been about 10).

What a nice coincidence. I'm now a dad myself. I'll tell my parents you're still busy.

All the best,

Dear Henry Hibbard,

I recieved my belt Wednesday, which was quite pleasing as I wasn't expecting it so soon. I've given the belt a couple days of wear and am very happy with it.

I've been looking for this style of belt locally (in the North Florida area) for the past few years without success--I wanted one to replace the belt my brother had given me about 14 years ago (which has seen much better days, considering it's probably older than me). Doing a quick look online, I found only one other place that sold double ring belts. But the choice between Big Retail and handmade was simple.

I expect I'll be order a couple more belts from you after the first of the year..

Thank you,

I received an excellent response to questions put to this supplier, and the order was acknowledge immediately. The fact that my account was not charged until the product was made was appreciated by me, and because the supplier had had a problem with the postage I had chosen he informed me. He advised me of the time it would take for me to receive my goods and this was accurate.

My only complaint was the amount of import tax I was required to pay, and the amount of handling charge the United Kingdom postal service charged me.

I consider the purchase of my goods from this supplier was easy and I received excellent service.

I sent in my order (I thought) for a belt, no buckle, for my husband for Christmas. Within a very short time, I got a confirmation from Henry, and we quickly discovered that I had not ordered what I really wanted. Henry and I emailed back and forth all day, with him making suggestions as to how I could get the information he needed to make the belt the right size, but without spoiling the surprise. The morning after I orginally transmitted my order I emailed the correct information to Henry. Later that afternoon, I got an email from Henry telling me that my belt had been shipped by Priority Mail. It arrived two days later, and it was EXACTLY what I wanted. I would recommend this merchant to anyone.

First time buyer and a small order. Responded to order immediately and shipped promptly. Had order in just a few days with no problem. Will use again, gladly.

Hi Henry. I got it today and love it. Exactly what I wanted. I may be ordering one for my brother but I need to talk with him first. Thank you very much.

Received my new "Henry" yesterday and was delighted, as I always am, with the quality and functionality of my new Small Backpack. It has a trendy style, with lots of great extras added like plenty of pockets and a key clip. I especially love the fabric sail cloth Henry uses to line his bags - it has become my choice over the pigskin because it looks great all the time and is as tough as nails. Also, the replacement wallet I ordered for my husband (the dog ate his!) was perfect and he was delighted with it. I have to admit I used the excuse of ordering him a wallet to add to my own collection� ;-) I couldn't be happier with all the items I've ordered from LeatherGoodsConnection and will be a customer for life.

Joanne Klauber

I placed an order on your website. I was very impressed when I e-mailed for a question about the product I wanted to purchase,it was answered very quickly. I like that. I plan on purchasing more in the future and will spread the word. Have a great day.

Henry,

I love the bag. I have already received compliments on it. Thank you for all your hard work and patience, especially for responding so promptly to all of my emails. Did you notice....patience is not one of my virtues.....Ha! Ha!

Very easy to work with. Made special effort to get me what I wanted. Shipped within timeframe specified. Very good workmanship, very good material. Would buy from this merchant again and will defininately encourage others to buy from him.

Hi Henry,

I just got the wallet yesterday (fast!) and it's really, really nice. I can't wait to give it to my boyfriend for his birthday next month. I'm very impressed with the wallet and your prompt service.

Thank you!!

I have been looking for this belt and wallet for three years and after receiving I was completley surprised to see they are what I have been looking for ever since I bought my last ones from a peddler in Kentucky at a Town Picknick. I might add dealing with this indvidual was beyond my expectations, he was very knowlegeable.
Bob Cleary

Henry, thank you very much for your advice. I took the plunge (pun intended) and soaked the belt in water for 2 minutes. I just rubbed the surface lightly with my fingers and the salt stains (and residual water stains) have all disappeared. The belt did shrink slightly but I am sure that once it is around my ample girth it will stretch back out :-) As expected the belt is a bit stiffer but that should go away with use as well. I declined to use distilled water, but that is still an option if the stiffness is maintained.

I tried some leather 'waterproofing' rub (that I had purchased years ago for boots - it is derived from Emu [the large bird] oil) on a small section of the non-visible side of the belt and it severely darkens it. I will just try the belt with its current darkness instead of worrying about a sealer of any type. I don't make a habit of getting the belt wet.

Tom

Henry,
Thank you so much for everything.
I enjoy doing business with you.

Henry,
I received the belt today. Thank you. It is exactly what I wanted. I am very impressed. I have owned belts from Orvis, Galco, and Filson and yours beats them all- in quality, craftsmanship and style. I'm sure this belt will last a long, long time. Thanks for such an excellent product. I will be contacting you soon for some other items.
All the best,

Hi Henry,

My beautiful bag arrived safe and sound and to say I am impressed is a total understatement. The quality far surpasses that of the original one and will no doubt last longer than I will! You are a genius .. many many thanks for all your hard work and skill. Rather than have another bag made of a different colour I am looking to maybe set you a fresh challenge, if that is ok? Like before I will send the old bag to you so you can cast your expert eye over it (if that suits) but it will not be for a couple of weeks. A huge THANK YOU once again!

With very best wishes,

Val

Henry:
IT IS AWESOME!!!
You have me hooked.
I'll email another order later this week, along the lines of what I had asked about earlier, which is a one inch inside billet, 2inch outside, this time in black, but with only the provision for a 4 piece buckle, I'll provide it. I have to swap the 3/4 inch set for a 1 inch set. Then, I'll send the set to you for incorporation into a belt. That way, we'll know it works.
thanks again!!!

Subject: My two most recent belts
Henry-
  Even my wife (who can be a very severe critic) has expressed great admiration for these two creations of yours. Also, several of my locker room buddies have admired them. Haven't gotten you any added sales as yet, but we are trying.
Best regards,
Pat Davis

Henry,
  My ranger belt arrived last week and it is absolutely beautiful - far and away the nicest belt I've ever owned. Just curious, but why do you omit the keeper that keeps the two ends together?
  Thanks again for an exceptionally high quality product.

Best regards,
John Ketchum

The belt is so awesome. I will be buying a few more from and other belts of width for regular wear. I also told my fellow umpires of your great work, and they are going to check you out.

Based on the quality and fit of my two new belts just received...I will predict that you have a great future in the leather goods field!! Many thanks and best regards.

Pat Davis

Could it be� another "favorite" Henry Handbag? Got my new Crescent style last week and it's exactly what I was wanting. Great size that I won't be compelled to overload, and looks really classy with the starburst stitching. The nicest feature is the flat bottom that helps prevent it from tipping over when I set it down. I've always been a leather snob (think it started back in the '70's with my faithful pair of Frye boots)� and I ordered my first couple bags with the pigskin lining which is really beautiful and luxurious. Now I'm absolutely hooked on the super-duper sailcloth material. It's tough as nails and stays looking perfect. Okay, so far I've got the Courier, City Bag, Maxi Tote, Anytime Backpack, Weekender, Career Briefcase, Cosmetics Pouch, and all kinds of little custom bags for Palm Pilots and such. And now my new Crescent� As long as Henry is making these beautiful items, I'll be a customer.

Joanne Klauber

Henry,

I received the belts today and I am very very pleased with the workmanship and overall appearance. In particular the 7 braid. How did you do that? Your measuring criteria also worked.

Thank you.

This merchant went out of his way to assist me in ordering the custom made belt I wanted. I had several questions, which I emailed to him over the time period of a couple of weeks, prior to making my purchase. He was very prompt and detailed in answering them- often within a half hour. This merchant displayed a lot of patience.

The quality of the belt that I ordered was very good. I ordered the belt with the spacing of the holes in a special pattern to accomodate my changing weight, and he did an excellent and accurate job. The quality of the leather, buckles, etc. was excellent.

I would definatly do business with this merchant again.

Thanks so much, Henry.....I can't wait to see and use the bag that I've been drooling over on the website for the past couple of months (and looking for that style for the past several years).
Penny

Geez.. that's scary...Hope I don't let you down.
Henry

Hi Henry,

HOLY MOLY.....there is NO way I'm disappointed! The bag came last night (wonderfully fast shipping, by the way), and wow, it's fantastic! Far better than I'd hoped for, and FAR better than the one I'd seen years ago and had been looking for ever since.

Since I'm pretty sure it would break one of the Laws of Womankind to say it's the Perfect Purse (after all, who would want to jeopardize further shopping excursions by admitting that???), it is gorgeous, the perfect size and color, and amazingly soft leather. Even the strap is I think the nicest looking one I've ever seen!

I'm keeping the webpage in my Favorites, for sure ;-)

Hi,

I received the handbag that you made for me today. I just wanted to say thank you. I was very apprehensive about ordering a handbag this way. I had been looking on the net for over 6 months. I finally decided to order through your site. The handbag was far more than I ever expected! The workmanship and quality show and they are exceptional. You understood the changes that I asked for and they are great. The other unexpected surprise I had, was my Coach wallet and cosmetic bag match ( the color) perfectly. This handbag is perfect! Again thank you and I wish you well with your business.

Got my checkbook cover in the mail on Saturday, just what I was wanting. Thanks.

Hi Henry, just received the handbag late yesterday and it is fabulous, thank you so much. You did an excellent job, Sheila

Hey Henry,

Hi Henry, I received the goods yesterday and am very happy with the results. I couldn't wait to give the wallet to my husband. It is so beautifully handcrafted.

  After exchanging several emails with the craftsman at LeatherGoodsConnection.com we came to agreement on the size, color, hardware, and price of a custom handbag that I wanted based on a picture of a similar bag I saw in a magazine. I got this custom bag for over $500 less than the one pictured...its roomy, easy to carry, everthing I wanted...including a great shade of chocolate brown. Mr. Hibbard certainly knows how to put it all together.

Thanks for making the strap longer than requested too! You were right.

Lisa Scherber

Got the belts last week, they are exactly what I am looking for. I look forward to doing more business with you. Great products.

Thanks

Bill Oswald

Hi Henry,
Looks fantastic.

I generally wear western belts with tips and keepers but wanted a black belt with plain brass buckle to wear with Levi�s and to match my black bike leathers and boots. Also, all the silver buckle bits on a traditional set scratch paint and I wanted to minimize that possibility as well � both riding and working on the bike.
The belt you made looks fine and should work perfectly (assuming I measured correctly). Perhaps this can be a new market for you? Even though there is a �biker look� just about everything, I don�t think there is a �biker belt� � at least not for pants. Maybe we just created a future classic.

Bill

Henry,
I just received the belt today and it is perfect. I am so glad I found your site, this belt is exactly what I was looking for. Can you send me another one just like it? Same size, same cc#, same color. I am so happy with this one I would like another.

Henry, I received the handbag the other day and I did not have time to thank you. As usual your work is impressive. The leather is soft enought to satifsfy me being the fanatic that I am! I just wanted to thank you for the excellent quality you put into your work. Kim

Thanks so much for the custom work! The piece (a leather cover for a custom guitar amplifier) is absolutely gorgeous, fits perfectly, and arrived promptly. The leather is just as beautiful as you described, and I am thrilled! I had an idea that you helped me refine, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. I can't recommend your work highly enough! Thanks again, Henry!

Henry-
I'm blown away- It's absolutely fabulous and fits perfectly. Thanks so much! I sent a comment of praise to your website.
I can't believe that leather! It is my favorite leather color of all time, and the weight is perfect for what I wanted. I hope you have some more of it! I'm trying to think of other things you could make me!
Thanks again- you have totally nailed it! I love it!

Wow you are fast, its only Tuesday and you only just started it yesterday, I will keep your website for future orders, my husband rides and buys alot of leather products. Thanks again, Kim

Henry,

I just received the custom maxi tote and the custom city bag with the flap closure. I could not be more pleased with your excellent craftsmanship! These bags are exactly what I was looking for that I could not find anywhere else. It really makes me feel good to say that I own custom crafted goods. Furthermore, It makes my husband feel really good that he will no longer be dragged out of the house day after day and hour upon hour pocketbook shopping when we both know that I won't find something that I will be happy with. I am completely happy with my purchases. I look forward to doing business with you again.

Thank you,

Stephanie Fowler

I really love your work as you can tell since I ordered 3 belts in one week! If you order a belt with a buckle, do you also get a keeper loop? If not, no worry, they look just great without the loop too. My Lt. Brown belt arrived Sat. 2-21-04 nd looks just great but did'nt have a keeper loop. Keep up the great work; thinking about a Ranger Belt around Christmas time.
Thanks again,
Ross
(Reply: Center bar buckles do not use a keeper)

Hello Henry

This is just a breif note to say thanks for the great job you did on Bernie's handbag. She loves it.

I think there is a real markeing opportunity here. You should think about the gift voucher idea I was looking for originally and also follow up sales campaigns e.g. a purse to match the handbag, discount for friends campaign etc.

Anyway. Thanks once again and best of luck.

Mark

Henry,

The covers arrived today. They made it just in time for my next trip, and they're wonderful. The leather is everything I thought it would be. The extra snaps on the closure is a great touch. I am completely and thoroughly satisfied. You ever need a testament, just give a holler.

Thanks so much. It's been a pleasure doing business with you.

Thank you Henry. I received the wallet and I would like to tell you how pleased I am with it. I like the leather, the workmanship, nice metal fasteners, and no dumb logo...
Thanks again for a fine product and excellent service,

Hi Henry,
  Awhile back you made me a handbag using a copy of one I gave you. It was a hobo style. I saw a picture of it on your website. It has a shorter wide strap and a zippered top. Well, I am most happy with it. You do the most beautiful work. You also thru in a keychain that I love. I have not lost my keys yet because of the long leather braid, I can find it anywhere. Well, the reason for my email is that I would love another custom bag same style just a bit wider so I can fit more stuff in it. I was thinking of a different color also. Let me know if you know the style I am refering to and if you want me to send you measurements. I am also looking for a soft to the touch leather. Let me know what you recommend.

Thank You, Kim Jacobik ( from Preston near Norwich which I believe is your old neck of the woods!)

Thank you so much. The belts are perfect. I have been looking for months for belts like these.

Thanks again, Mary

Thanks, Henry, for the quick and personal service. Marian

Dear Henry,

I would like to thank you for the quality work you have provided. I received the two belts today and am very pleased with your workmanship, and the quality of the leather. I have found that during my many purchases online that the photos do not always show what is received by the customer. Thankfully your photos are a good indication of what you provide. Thank you once again for conducting quality work in a timely manner, you have done a wonderful job.

I received the wallet yesterday. I'm very happy with the final product. You are definitely a fine leather craftsman. Everything's right where I wanted it. The tougher liner is evident. My wife is already thinking about what she might want in a custom handbag. I told her she needs custom pockets for her gun, handcuffs and badge. Talk to you next year about the handbag. Thanks again, and have a great holiday.

I just received my customized Maxi Tote and have to say that it is my new favorite "Henry". The Black Dove leather is beautiful and the features of this bag are just perfect for my needs.

Dear Henry,

I received the checkbook cover you made (zippered to hold regular checks) and I have to tell you, that is the most beautiful thing I�ve seen in a long time. You do quality work; it�s truly a work of art. I have ordered a wallet for my husband and am sure it will be the same quality. I�m very glad I found you. My husband and I own a mold shop and are trying to hold on to it but it hasn�t been easy. No one understands anything about manufacturing in this country but China understands that it�s the backbone of any economy. I am so happy to find something made in this country. I�m assuming you make this wallet. I look forward to receiving the wallet and will tell everyone I know about your quality items. Thanks again.

Just came home to find my bag. I wanted you to know I'm *very* happy with both the quality of the construction and the 'look.' The color is just what I was looking for, also. I'm sure my husband will like his wallet when he opens it Christmas a.m. Thanks.
Lisa

Dear Henry,

Thank you so much for your excellent work on the new cases. You did so much more than

we asked and I really appreciate it. The design improvement to the elastic is excellent. You should be receiving an additional check for $40 in the mail soon.

We are very pleased and I will be sure to spread the word about your good work.

Thanks again,
Jennifer

Henry:

  The eyeglass case arrived today in good order. It appears to be just what the doctor ordered.
  I can't imagine that there isn't a market for this type of case to be worn on the belt. If memory serves, it was a common item maybe 20 to 25 years ago, then disappeared. You might want to test the acceptance of this style. I'll volunteer to be a satisfied user.

Thanks & good luck.

  I am very pleased with my purchase from LeatherGoods Connection. My handbag is stylish and very well made, plus the customization requests that I had for the design were impemented beautifully!

I would definately go back to LeatherGoods Connection for future leather purchases before I would look anywhere else!

Thank you so very much for the fantastic bag. I received it yesterday, and it is perfect - it looks great and functions wonderfully! I really appreciate your careful craftsmanship, and your willingness to customize the pockets and such.

Best wishes!

Title:Leather Goods, A Great Idea
  With an explicit description of what I wanted, LeatherGoods was able to design a custom bag for me. The guy, Henry, was extremely responsive. I was actually shocked to have gotten an e-mail as timely as I did. He even gave me a sketch of what he was going to do. Overall, I was very impressed.

Henry the bag looks great!
The camouflage really gives it a masculine edge

Thanks a million.

Regards, Mike

Henry,
Recieved buckles today. They are perfect, exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much, also thanks for the extra.
Thanks again, Gary

Dear Sir:

I received both my bags today and I must tell you they are truly much more beautiful than in the pictures on your web site. I must confess that I bought one as a gift for my mother, but after receiving it today I don't think I could part with either one. I am the owner of three Coach and two Dooney & Bourke bags, but these I can tell already will be my favorites. Thank you for the express service and the beautiful workmanship. You will get my next order before Christmas.

Gloria

Henry,
Thanks so very much. The strap came today and was a perfect match for my daughters pocketbook. She said the quality work was great, but then I could have told her that. Barb

Dear Henry,

Just a quick note to let you know I Love My New Bag!!! It's the perfect size I needed with all the 'little' things that make the difference! That side pocket not only holds my pens and hair barretts, but my cell phone too! (that has been impossible to find in any other bag around, because I have a larger model i1000+ Nextel phone...)

I'm showing it off to all the girls at school (& church) who think they need to purchase "Coach" and other over-priced designer bags to have quality. Never again for this girl!

I am extremely hard on handbags and need 'tough leather' to hold up and I can already see it's going to be my 'best friend' for a very long time to come! Your website is being shared with all my friends, so hopefully that will send you some more orders:)

Thanks again for the excellent work you did for me! I couldn't have asked for more!

Please let me know if/when you get more colors in. I'd sure like this same bag in red, etc...

God Bless, Susan May

Hi Henry,

The leather zipper binder you made for me is beautiful and exactly what I had in mind. Buffalo Calf was definitely a great choice of leather for this item - it looks and feels very rich and will give me many years of service. Thanks once again!

Received the 2 belts this weekend, both look great. I am already hearing compliments. Thanks

Wow, are you FAST! Belt arrived today. Many thanks, Henry! It's beautiful!
Stephen

Hi Henry,
Thank you for your careful concern. My buckle adds 2-3 inches. I have several different buckles and change from time to time. I appreciate the care you take to ensure a proper fit. I shopped on ebay and a number of websites and your belts are the best bargain of the lot!

My shopping experience was wonderful with handmadeleather goods. So much so that I will be contacting Henry with my own belt order in the near future. I love my husband's belt. It's beautifully crafted and it looks wonderful with the buckle!

Amani Francis

Great product, price and delivery! I really like the wallet!
Jon Tomasson

My leather day planner binder arrived today and it's just perfect - love the leather (matches my briefcase!) and all the great pockets. Thanks again, Henry!

Just wanted to let you know that I received my leather order, and I am very pleased with it. Very nice leather, with that wonderful leather smell.
It seems to be very well-made, with sturdy zippers. I look forward to years of service from it.

Thanks again,

Lynne Kastal

The belt arrived today. I'm very happy with it and I wanted to thank you for your help. Since I'm trying to lose some weight, with luck I might need a slightly smaller size in a few months and, if so, I'll probably be a repeat customer.
Best wishes.

Bernard

Henry,
My bag came today and it's beautiful ! Thank you so much ! I love it. I'll recommend you to anyone looking for a bag. They are just perfect.

Alison Scofield

Henry,

Just received my order & all the items are wonderful!

-The nylon zipper does appear to have been the better choice.

-I must also add that I'd just about given up hope on finding a leather belt of this quality. I have a belt from 20 years ago that I can now retire because you've crafted it's worthy replacement!

Thank you so much!

Hi Henry,

Your package arrived today and I was again completely delighted with my order. The career briefcase is just beautiful and the additional shoulder strap will sure come in handy. I loved the matching clutch purse - it was exactly what I had in mind. What a perfect set this will be for work - can't wait to show it off!
Joanne

Henry,
The bag arrived yesterday and it is perfect! I love the leather you used. It looks just like Andrew's old bag only better of course. He is going to be so pleased. Thank you very much.

Henry,
  You did a fabulous job. The bag is perfect, exactly what I wanted. Your work is very neat in detail. I am so happy I found you. The leather is extremely soft and I love the lining it looks very durable. Thanks again and I am sure I will keep in touch. I love the fact that I can have something made customized. You do excellent work!!! Oh and the key chain is beautiful , you truly are an artisan. I am sure I will get compliments and I will send them your way.
Thank You,

Hi Henry,
I just received the handbag and belt. I am so excited with both. Your workmanship is exquisite. I plan on going back to your website to order another purse in brown�this time with the pigskin lining!
Thank you so much for all your care, talent, and skill. I will treasure your products with lots of TLC for years to come.

Dianne Ruth, Ph.D.

Henry,
My package arrived today. Thanks for such a beautiful job. Words can't do it justice. So unusual to see such quality workmanship these days. Needless to say your web site is bookmarked.
  How long have you been doing the leathercraft? Your web site is something to go through. I could almost smell the leather as I went from page to page.
  Thanks again for doing such a great job. It is exactly what I have been trying to find for a number of years.
Barb Davis



Hi Henry, I never got to thank you for the prompt delivery of the black leather belt and I also wanted to tell you how nice it was doing business with you. I could not believe how quickly the package arrived in my mailbox!

My friend loves the belt and everybody is happy ;)

Have a nice day and to future orders...

Got the belt today. Looks good, fits well. Very happy.

Thanks

Henry:

You are AMAZING!

I took a trip to Blairsville, Ga., Wednesday morning, and did not return until 11:30 p.m. When I returned, there was a box left at the front door. After opening the box, I saw the most absolutely GORGEOUS handbag that I have ever seen! I am a handbag fanatic, especially for very large purses, and the size is perfect! You were right when you said that the one you made is much better made and much better looking, the leather is fantastic, in color and feel! And, I do believe, without a doubt, that you did not charge enough. For that reason, I would like to send you another payment, maybe two, in the form of money orders. I will send it to you as soon as possible, and if you do not receive it right away, don't think that I have forgotten. This is too important to me.

The picture that I sent you was probably (I can't really remember) torn out from "Elle" magazine and is of an original bag from the designer "Jo Sander", and is priced at, here goes, $1,740.00 before tax. Now, there is no way I could afford a bag like that and, even if I could, would be crazy to do so. Now, you can see why I searched the internet for someone like you. And I really lucked up and found you, far greater than I could have ever expected.

Thankyou again so much! I will be spending some time now figuring out what to put in what pouch, but it will be worth it! Oh, by the way, I will not need to shop for anymore purses ever, as this will be my bag for life!-

Yvonne

Henry,
  My order of five belts arrived and all are exactly as requested. PERFECT. Terrific workmanship and sizing as your detailed instructions indicated. Many thanks.

You are a really a skilled craftsman! I cannot believe my fortune in locating someone like you! The only way I know to repay you, besides the money (which I have a feelilng that you are being underpaid). is to tell and show everyone, by way of the purse, how skilled you are and what a nice person! Thank you again and I will be talking to you!

Henry,

The belt arrived today. Thanks for your fine craftsmanship! I couldn't be more pleased. It's getting hard to find such high quality and prompt personal service these days. You can count on me to order additional items from you in future.

Henry,

Thanks for the update. Talk about great service! I'm looking forward to my new belt. Thanks also for the heads up about the leather suspenders. Definitely something I'll keep in mind.

Henry,
The bags arrived this afternoon and they are awesome! The cedar is absolutely gorgeous, so I have ordered the custom-made purse with the pouches in that leather. Just email me if you have any problems or need to contact me. Thanks again!-

I absolutely love the purse that I purchased and it's kind of nice to know that it was made especially for me. I received a lovely email from the man who made it when he started making it and when he sent the product. Can't get much better service than that and on top of it all a superior product. I have never had a nicer bag!!

Comments:
This was really a great experience...I had always had inhibitions regarding doing business over the internet especially with someone I never met and/or heard about...This proves that Honesty and Great Craftsmanship still exist.

Received the bag today. It is awesome. I have places for everything, and I can lug it all over Virginia without killing my shoulder, thanks to the waist strap.

Personally, I think it is much better looking than a Coach bag.

Thanks also for the cards. There were several people waiting to see what you came up with, so I will hand them cards.
Thanks again.

P.S. My husband said, it should take a while for me to kill this one.

Hey Henry
  The pictures you've added to your handbag descriptions look terrific! They're perfect for showing the dimensions of the bags in relation to a real person, and your models look great, too.
Oh yeah, I washed Chuck's wallet by accident in the pocket of his jeans and once it dried you couldn't even tell. There's no way any other wallet would have gone through that and still looked good.

Hi Henry,
I received my handbag on Friday it's great!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you for doing such a nice job. I may have you make another one but not as tall, let's see how this works for now. Thanks again, I really am thrilled to have my favorite handbag again.

My City Handbag arrived yesterday and it's everything I knew it would be - beautiful leather, great style and absolutely perfect craftsmanship. I'm so pleased with all of the pieces I've purchased from you over the past 6 months, and will be using them proudly for many years to come.
Thanks once again, Henry.

Hi Henry!
Great web site! I just wanted you to know that the wonderful wallet you made for me years ago at the Norwich shop is still going strong. That must have been more than 3 or 4 years ago, I guess...

Hope all is well. Ham and Faith have moved up here to the Cape to be with Norm, Patsy, me and our families.

Best Wishes,
Love,

(re: making copy of old handbag)
Dear Henry

The handbag arrived today and it took my breath away. The job you have done is just incredible. I forwarded your preview email to my daughter and she fell in love with the bag all over again. Originally I bought the bag for myself but my daughter conned me out of it. :) The old bag has been with her since high school and has traveled with her to Italy, China, Taiwan, England and Chicago where she was a student. You have more than come through for me. I can only say many thanks again, and I hope to be able to use you again soon. If you have any business cards send me some so that I can give them out.

thanks so much,
Ellen

(Re: Anytime Backpack)
Rave reviews! Everyone was QUITE impressed. This morning I had everything packed in it - binder, water bottle, pocket pc, makeup bag, glasses, phone, with room to spare. I ended up pulling the shoulder straps through the short handle and carrying it into work that way; I'll use it as a backpack when I'm out and about and carrying it for longer distances. Fits very comfortably and is a terrific size.
Loving it!

Your product details are excellent & the write-up attitude is mah-velous.

PS - The leather quality of the belt is very good. I love it!

Henry,
  I just received your package in the mail. Outstanding!!!!!

  Your craftsmanship and attention to detail in duplicating my wife's wallet is obvious when looking at your final product. She is going to be thrilled with this birthday gift! And thank you again for re-stitching the original wallet. It has been a pleasure doing business with you.

Hi Henry,
  The custom Franklin-Covey compact size binder you made for me is just perfect and exactly what I was wanting. As usual, the stitching and attention to detail is beyond compare, and this is a beautiful addition to my "Henry" collection. For Franklin-Covey planner users, they will sell just binder rings (call customer service) and Henry can work his magic with his beautiful leathers and craftsmanship. Mine includes a business card/ID window, inside pockets and pen loop. Awesome! Thanks again, Henry.

Thanks again,

Very satisfied with service, they even contacted me by email to verify belt size. Everything was shipped promptly.

  Received my Weekender today and Henry has outdone himself again! This is the most handsome, well-made bag of it's type that I've ever seen, and having had other items made by him, this is no surprise. Every element of the bag has been well thought out and executed with the finest of materials, always with form and function in mind. A similar designer-label bag would cost at least twice as much, and not be half as well made. The other items I've purchased from Henry (Courier handbag, cosmetic case, etc.) are breaking in beautifully and I'll carry them with pride for years to come. The Weekender is a great addition to my collection - thanks AGAIN, Henry!

Hi Henry,
My previous e-mail was the "website quality" comments but don't even BEGIN to convey how happy I am with everything. At one time or another I've owned every major designer brand of handbag, including Coach, Brighton, Dooney, Brahmin� you name it. They absolutely pale in comparison to your work. The stitching is perfect and the quality and weight of the leather is unbelievable. These are without a doubt the finest leather items I've ever owned and I will show them off every opportunity I get. My husband was crazy about his new wallet. And the keychains are the coolest, funkiest things ever. The cosmetic case is beautiful as well - what a great size and I love the outside pockets. Many, many thanks for all you've done - count on hearing from me again in the future!
Your friend, Joanne

Wow!

Just wanted to let you know I received my beautiful leather goods yesterday and they are even nicer than I could ever have imagined. The handbag is just gorgeous and exactly what I wanted. The case you designed fits my pocket PC like a glove, and the glasses case is perfect! Every item I ordered was made with such painstaking attention to detail. I'll be proud to show off and use my beautiful leatherwear, as well as give your work my highest recommendation. Your website is great as well - love the info on leather care. It sold me!
