Has anybody bought Eloxite belts or buckles? If so, did you like them?
I know several people buy bell caps from them, but wondered about their other products.
Thanks in advance, Chuck

Yup, I have one........was looking for something "not" so western looking. Its pewter colored and is in a rounded triangle shape. Very nice quality. Not el cheapo looking although it was inexpensive. I would buy a buckle from them again. I havent tried any of their other things though.

Yep, I've used them a lot in the past. I like the screw on bezel design and the prices are pretty good. The only complaint I've had is the curvature on some of the back plates on a few of the western designs makes a gap between the the edge of the screw down bezel and the back portion of the buckle that I didn't care for. Others fit real well so it's either a variation among the designs or else some of the bezels are not quite deep enough for a thicker cab. They did sell loose extra bezels though so I got a few and that solved the problem for some of them. I did have the belt loop attachment break on one buckle but that was only one out of dozens so I'm thinking it was just defective...Mel

Thank you all!
I'm looking at the slab buckles, t-bar straps, and basket weave belt. I like the idea of using a slab because I think it puts the emphasis on the rock and it can pass for a more formal belt (as Shannon said, not so western looking).
I'm making a belated Xmas gift for my brother in Oregon, so I'd like it to be decent.
Thanks again, Chuck

*S* I used one of the slab buckle mounts once. They do really accent the stone but man they are a heavy belt buckle, esp the model # 19-515 for thicker slabs ( 1/4"). Man that sucker on a good belt is a freaking weapon. I got no butt so it sort of pulled my pants down instead of holding them up *L*...Mel

LOL Mel.
Well, my brother is 6'2" and ranges from 250 - 325 lbs. I think he has enough trouble keeping his belt up. LOL
I've ordered 19-507. I hope the combo isn't too heavy, otherwise I'll go with the T Bar.
