Overtime cork wears beautifully, without the distressing that occurs in leather. The belt can even be machined washed in cold water. Still concerned with the durability properties of the material? Cork has been used as flooring for centuries in high traffic buildings including banks and the lobbies of iconic government structures. All of Cliff’s accessories are handmade and individually hand crafted.
