Hardware may show minor oxidation and fine handling marks. Leather may show small surface scratches and natural grain variations. Each belt has its own unique character. With appropriate care, the marks and color changes that develop through use will gradually enhance the aged quality and personal style of the belt.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeather\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWipe clean with a soft dry cloth after use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply a small amount of leather conditioner (e.g. neatsfoot oil or beeswax conditioner) when the leather appears dry — buff gently with a soft cloth, following the direction of the scale pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct sunlight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not use bleach, solvents, or harsh chemical cleaners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not scrub the embossed surface — use gentle motions to avoid flattening the scale texture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWipe hardware with a dry cloth to maintain finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural oxidation and patina on aged zinc alloy is a feature of the distressed aesthetic, not a defect\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse a breathable dust bag when storing for extended periods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStore flat or loosely rolled — avoid tight coiling which may crease the embossed pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"i7Bags","offers":[{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 95 cm \/ 37.4\" ]","offer_id":50494550442177,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-001","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 100 cm \/ 39.4\" ]","offer_id":50494550474945,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-002","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 105 cm \/ 41.3\" ]","offer_id":50494550507713,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-003","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 110 cm \/ 43.3\" ]","offer_id":50494550540481,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-004","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 115 cm \/ 45.3\" ]","offer_id":50494550573249,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-005","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 120 cm \/ 47.2\" ]","offer_id":50494550606017,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-006","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Amber Brown \/ [ 125 cm \/ 49.2\" ]","offer_id":50494550638785,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-007","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 95 cm \/ 37.4\" ]","offer_id":50494550671553,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-008","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 100 cm \/ 39.4\" ]","offer_id":50494550704321,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-009","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 105 cm \/ 41.3\" ]","offer_id":50494550737089,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-0010","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 110 cm \/ 43.3\" ]","offer_id":50494550769857,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-0011","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 115 cm \/ 45.3\" ]","offer_id":50494550802625,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-0012","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 120 cm \/ 47.2\" ]","offer_id":50494550835393,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-0013","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ [ 125 cm \/ 49.2\" ]","offer_id":50494550868161,"sku":"I7B-BELT-WCE-0014","price":97.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/3911\/4945\/files\/vintage-western-crocodile-embossed-italian-leather-belt-amber-brown-5.jpg?v=1786551717","url":"https:\/\/i7bags.com\/en-no\/products\/vintage-western-crocodile-embossed-italian-leather-belt","provider":"i7Bags","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
