How a belt is made

  1. Bowls of grape skins, beetroot, black tea and yerba mate beside dyed leather swatches

    Tanned with plants

    The leather comes from male pampa steers. It is tanned naturally with oils and pigments from grape, beetroot, tea and yerba mate, all from northern Argentina. No chemicals.

  2. Leather hides drying on wooden racks under a wide sky

    Dried in the open air

    Then it rests for 90 days in the open air. Nothing is added afterwards: no coating, no backing layer. What you see is leather.

  3. A sewing machine stitching embroidered leather in pink and navy

    Stitched by hand

    Each diamond is embroidered stitch by stitch. Every pattern is different.

  4. A round HAND MADE stamp pressed into tan leather

    Stamped, signed, sent

    Every belt carries the hand-made stamp, pressed into the leather. Then it makes its way from Argentina to you.

Designed in Zürich.
Made in Argentina.

La Cuarta was founded in December 2019 in Zürich by Yann Menge. Every belt is a small piece of that place and of the one it comes from.

The belts are designed in Switzerland and made in Argentina, in a factory in the province of Buenos Aires, where the leather is tanned and dried the old way.

Our belts are originals, as you are.
Abrazo, La Cuarta
