Steel Toe Studios Recycled Cog Buckles

Steel Toe Studios is a small blacksmith shop out of Seattle that has started a “Cyclone” line of recycled and repurposed bicycle cogs, transforming them into belt buckles through hammer, heat and ingenuity. Some versions even open bottles, along with holding your pants up. Belts created from recycled inner-tubes are available through Steel Toe to match the aesthetic, courtesy of fellow Seattle recyclers Alchemy Goods who accepts used tubes from shops around the country, giving them a second life.
