WPG Irvin

[Bombing IP]

Does anyone know where I can get a buckle for an Irvin ,I took my Irving out to wear and tried to buckle up the belt and the buckle was missing .The center prong was still there ,I can only assume it broke in half and fell off .The stitching that secured the buckle is complete . Most strange ,If anyone knows a source let me know thank you .

Hi Jeff
The first thing that comes to mind is
I would call WPG to see if they’d swap it out for you or at the very least send you a buckle. Your jackets not that old if I remember correctly. If that’s a fail ... then maybe one of the guys in the UK can suggest a place where you can email to acquire one .

Burt thanks ,but as you know their customer service is retarded non existent everyone is on f in valium. If I were to wake the silly bugger up he would send me another piece of shit for the cycle to start again . Actually looking for something better . Wish Johnny Boy was still on the forum !.

How about Aviation Leathercraft? They make them and could possibly supply one?

Unless you bought from them which I did not they are not going to sell you one .Also having there name cast into the buckle would be another reason not to sell it to me .

Happy new year.

Anyone like to guess what this sold for.
I was wondering the same thing about buckles I quite fancy making a couple of belts just for the hell of it.
The Eastman buckle looks close to original so I guess they must source them from somewhere.

The leather on the above has become reptile like ? .So tell us what it sold for .
