Do you offer custom paint fill colors?
Yes. You will need to send us a sample of the color and we will do our best to match it.
How are Black Diamond Belt Straps Measured?
All Black Diamond belts straps are made with 5 holes, spaced 1"; apart. Each strap is measured from the leather end closest to the buckle, to the center hole (the third of five holes). strap size is based upon this measurement only, and does not include the length of the buckle. For odd sizes, round to the next larger size, and use the hole closest to center.

If you cannot provide a vector file, please submit the best file type available based upon the list below. (Ranked in order of preference, 1=best)
