Experienced professionals and the prepared never leave home or travel without a SIEGE belt.
With our inside knowledge of the dramatic difference these belts have made and will continue to make in many people’s lives, we are doing our best to make them as affordable as possible. We have kept prices low, especially on our popular Gray Man finish and new laser-engraved Patriot belts. Given how each hand-crafted buckle and belt takes us hours to complete, they are an awesome value. They will also far outlast conventional belts. Until our custom high-density ballistic custom webbing runs out (the US webbing specialist can no longer make it) you can get the sought-after, one-of-a-kind Siege Belt at a price lower than many factory-made premium leather belts with a simple pin buckle and no decorative leather work (they can range between $120 and $220—$300 for some gun belts—and will not last anything like a Siege Belt). Most significantly, one can’t put a price on the peace of mind that having a Siege Belt can provide.

The 1000-Year Buckle
New Patriot edition belts with laser-engraved US Flag – Stars & Stripes design
New 3D Camo finish
Along with the dozens of steps involved in crafting every buckle, for this new finish each scallop in the buckle face is individually oriented and sculpted by hand, and we even go so far as to customize each bolt and prong head to match, by sculpting, polishing, and buffing them before installation. As with all our buckles, no two are identical.
A Lifetime Companion
Most Siege Belts immediately become constant companions to their owners, who will likely spend more time over many years with their Siege Belts than with any other item — by a long shot. He or she will chang outfits from day to day, but the Siege Belt is an ever-present partner (and versatile enough to go with any attire). Even our “indispensable” phones that we carry everywhere end up being replaced every few years or so. Considering this, and what we commonly spend on short-lived work and casual wear and accessories (think of what shoes can cost and how soon they wear out), most of which might be worn only a few times a week or month, a belt that will far outlast them all and be with us always ought to be something really special, that looks great, and can always be depended on.

The experienced and wise will also know that they may in reality be worth much more than their weight in gold and silver, since they secure that which is truly precious — the wearer of the belt.

The must-have belt for everyday carry and travel. Read on . . .
SIEGE BELTS are the brainchild of the late outdoor industry pioneer, master craftsman, Navy veteran, and a serial inventor, Ken Young. Among his notable inventions are the trailblazing Alp Sandals, the world’s first sport sandal (acquired by Teva and prized by river-rafters and many others for its superior stability), the Avery-Dennison FlipBack 360 Binder, and the SIEGE Stove universal Cross-Members.
After a long hiatus, these highly coveted belts are finally back, promising unmatched functionality and durability. SIEGE Belts are not your run-of-the-mill belts; they’re crafted to be your trusty sidekick for life. However, it is important to note that these belts will only be available while supplies last, as they are made with the master’s buckle blanks and custom webbing. The belts are a labor of love, with each one requiring over 35 procedures and taking up to 4 hours to complete, depending on the buckle finish, so we can only make them in very small numbers.
Siege Belts are a great value for a custom-crafted belt, especially so considering that it will last a lifetime and soon pay for itself in avoided replacement costs. We’ve had buyers tell us that they go through two or three leather belts a year, but even if one wears a leather belt for a lot longer than this, with the price of leather belts these days replacement costs can add up. A decent leather belt can cost around $70 and a premium leather dress or gun belt can range between $130 and $200, and these are mass-produced, not artisan-crafted, and often have cheaply-made, thin, chrome plated buckles, with both the leather and buckle soon showing significant wear.
Siege Belts have been sought-after since they were unavailable for so long, and are increasingly collectible, given the very low production volume that the craft necessitates and especially considering that the belt will last lifetimes. The belts Ken sold before ceasing production are already worth much more than what was paid for them!
A SIEGE Belt will pay for itself many times over in avoided replacement costs, and once our customers start to wear one, they immediately feel the comfort and confidence it brings and never want to go back to a conventional belt. Don’t miss out on the chance to own one of these rare, collectible, heirloom-quality belts. Act now and secure your Siege Belt today, and join the select group of the prepared who enjoy the comfort, craftsmanship, longevity, performance and security that only a Siege Belt can provide.
“I routinely carry a CCW (retired LEO). I like your belt because it supports the added weight but is still flexible. When I travel to a restricted environment and cannot carry, I still have options with your belt.”
— RC., Stockton, CA
We also make the SIEGE® STOVE — the most versatile compact, portable, high-performance, US-made, wood-burning and multi-fuel stove on the planet. Precision-made from US-produced aerospace-grade titanium or stainless steel. The Siege Stove beat all nine well-known stoves in Firearms News and Be Ready annual survival guide’s comparison tests. Go here to see the stoves, and watch the expert reviews. SIEGE Stoves have large fuel capacity and heat output while being lightweight and super compact when collapsed, and assemble in around 30-40 seconds without the need for hinges (which make stoves much heavier and less compact, and also vulnerable to warping, resulting resulting in a hinged stove that can no longer be folded and unfolded).
The Ferocious and Fury Buckles pictured above with the brushed “Gray Man” finish are the most popular choice (order here or go here to see our custom buckle finishes). The Standard size 5.5 oz Fury and 3.5 oz Phantom buckles come with 1.25″ webbing, while the Large 6 oz Ferocious and Oval Frenzy buckles come with 1.5″ webbing — with the brown or black side facing out, in whatever length you need. The super comfortable, flexible, lightweight, high-grip, high-density custom ballistic nylon will over time shape itself to conform to the wearer, but unlike conventional nylon webbing or leather, will not stretch in any meaningful way, even after many years of use. Leather does not meet our standards, and soon shows signs of wear, with creases, cracks and warping. In addition, it is not flexible enough to get a tight wrap, and will easily slip in one’s hand. Siege Belts are also amphibious and designed to handle salt water activity, unlike leather and many buckles.
Order your own custom belt, and join the select group of Siege Belt owners, who understand the value of products that are uncompromising and utterly dependable, and the unyielding necessity to always be well prepared at all times and in all places.

The pinnacle in artisan-crafted belts
After being unavailable for many years the sought-after SIEGE Belts are back. Read on . . .
Ever since our dear friend and mentor, the late outdoor gear pioneer and inventor Ken Young, stopped making the belts many years ago to work on some of his other inventions (the belts required more time to craft than his schedule permitted), they have been a much sought-after item. Having worn one of his belts daily for over ten years we recognized how uniquely practical and incredibly durable the they are. We eventually persuaded Ken to teach us the belt making craft, and devoted ourselves to bringing them back (as long as we have stock of Ken’s custom high-density ballistic nylon, buckle blanks, and the time to work on them).
THE UNCANNY DEVOTION WEARERS HAVE TO THEIR BELTS . . .
Imagine a belt that is so durable, so comfortable, and gives its wearers so much peace-of-mind, that one can encounter people who have been wearing them daily for decades. At shows we attend, visitors to our booth sometimes express disbelief that a belt we’ve worn almost every day for over 11 years with no signs of fraying is that old, but that’s nothing — at a recent event someone who bought a Siege Belt (formerly Alp Belt) in 2003 introduced himself. He was wearing that same belt! Consider the odds . . . He said that he wears it every day and travels everywhere with it (the day before he had returned from a trip to Hawaii). He had even written the year “2003” on the back of the buckle, so that he could keep track of the belt’s incredible longevity. This is the kind of devotion that is common among Siege Belt owners.
The 20-year old ballistic nylon still looked good and he had no desire to replace it! He had been looking for more of the belts in the intervening years, and had even called Ken, but production had ceased and Ken only had a small supply to give to friends and family. Delighted to see that we are bringing these special belts back, and knowing what a rare find and fantastic value they are, he and his friend ordered more to add to their collections of “must-be-with-me” belts.
At events we attend, we frequently encounter Siege belt owners and invariably they are wearing their belts, with the uniform refrain “I wear it everywhere / every day”. The belt is designed to become one with the wearer, with our flexible custom webbing and the buckle curved to conform to the body, chamfered on all edges and with bolts, prongs and nuts individually rounded and bullet-nosed for maximum comfort. New customers are surprised that a buckle this solid can be so comfortable that one forgets that it’s on.
The belts are a rare item and considering the work that goes into making each one, and what people typically pay for quality EDC items such as pocket knives — even mass-produced ones — they are a fantastic value (they are also far more commanding than other EDC items, most of which are restricted in many places and when traveling). The buckle work takes time and requires careful attention to detail, so we can only produce them in very small numbers.
The inventor of the SIEGE Belt referred to the buckles as “1000-year buckles” owing to their solid stainless steel or brass construction with no moving parts. Added to this is the remarkable durability and longevity of the special high-density webbing. All our belts come with a lifetime warranty.
