Slim Proportions, Strong Presence
The black leather and gold buckle create a sharp and understated presence. Together they give the belt a composed finish that works naturally with suits, dress trousers, and smart-casual outfits.
The Strap Itself
This single-piece top-grain leather strap, 1.15" wide, is finished with a smooth, even-grain finish. Suited to dress trousers and tailored fits, it comes pre-cut so there is nothing to trim before wearing it.
No Holes, Precise Fit
The gold-tone buckle has a low-profile automatic face and locks onto a micro-adjustable ratchet track hidden inside the strap, no belt holes involved. A press of the release lever lets it go, and it swaps freely with any other Hedonist Chicago 1.15" buckle.
For Those Who Like Things Precise
This 1.15" slim dress ratchet belt in black with a gold-tone buckle suits someone who wants a fit dialed in exactly, not approximated between two holes. The smooth leather keeps it practical, and it is easy to build on with other Hedonist Chicago straps and buckles.

PACKAGING
Premium branded gift box
We use carefully selected full-grain leather and premium materials chosen for durability, character, and everyday performance. Because genuine leather is a natural material, each piece has its own unique grain and develops a rich patina over time, making it even more distinctive with use.

Match it to your trouser waist size; the 1.15-inch strap comes pre-cut to that length. The internal ratchet gives about an inch of give in both directions, so the fit stays exact even as your waist shifts slightly through the day. Order the larger size if you're caught between two.
Gold hardware against black leather is a classic high-contrast dress pairing, warm metal set off by the darkest strap color. The slim 1.15-inch width keeps the buckle proportioned to narrow trouser loops rather than overwhelming them. HC branding is laser-etched into the gold-tone face, zinc alloy underneath.
The strap hides a track of fine teeth spaced a quarter inch apart. Tighten the buckle and it grips the nearest tooth instantly, giving over thirty possible waist settings instead of the five or six holes on a punched belt. A lever on the buckle's reverse side releases it for removal.
Yes, that's the point of the 1.15-inch line. Narrow dress trousers use tighter loops than casual pants, and this width sits correctly inside them. Gold hardware and black leather read traditional and buttoned-up, suited to suits, tuxedos at a stretch, and boardroom dress codes rather than weekend chinos.
No. The 1.15-inch and 1.38-inch ratchet systems use different track gauges and aren't interchangeable across the two. This gold buckle will, however, click onto any other Hedonist Chicago 1.15-inch strap, and any 1.15-inch buckle in the lineup will fit this black strap in return.
Yes, free of charge. Up to 40 characters go on the strap's reverse side, an inch from the tip, in Goudy Cursive script. Choose hot stamping or foil in gold, silver, black, or white. Personalized pieces ship one to two business days later than standard, in the usual branded box.
