Vano uses genuine leather derived from animals. Where the leather comes from and how it is tanned is unfortunately unclear.
Ethics
Vano has a long history. In 1947, the then harness factory was transformed into a belt factory. All belts, suspenders, and bags are still made by hand in Tielt, Belgium. The result is an honest product to be proud of! The leather and fasteners are purchased, but from cutting, and crafting to stitching, dyeing, and assembly are all done manually at Vano. Vano belts have received the Unizo authenticity label for artisans ‘Handmade in Belgium’ because of their high-quality standards. The ‘Handmade in Belgium’ label unites entrepreneurs who make quality Belgian products using traditional methods.
Materials
Looking for a belt that fits you perfectly? At Vano, you have a wide choice of shapes and colors. You can choose between a round or oval buckle, rectangular or square. The colors range from classic black, brown, and cognac. Each season Vano complements its range with pastel or bright colors.
The specialty at Vano are belts, but in addition, you will find various accessories such as key chains, wallets, bags, and even suspenders. The suspenders are elastic and equipped with metal clips and leather loops, so you can easily attach them to your pants.
Circular Economy
On the website, you will find information on how to choose the right belt for your body. In addition, they encourage proper maintenance of leather goods. If you rub your belt with shoe polish every now and then, the life span will increase.
By using only artisanal craftsmanship and quality products, Vano hopes to combat the disposable industry. Curious about Vano’s belts and accessories? Take a look at the outlets below:
