“HTC” (Hollywood Trading Company) is a handmade stud belt maker from Los Angeles.

This is HTC’s narrowest belt, measuring 0.75 inches wide, with long ends designed to peek out from under the hem of a top.
A simple design featuring a clear-stone-set flower motif and a single stud in alternating order.

This is a belt that develops a unique character and patina with use.

Stud belts were produced in the 1930s to 1950s. Today, they are rare items, with only a few dozen available on the market each year.
In 1994, after going independent, owner ZIP STEVENSON discovered stud belts—the belts he believed suited denim best—while buying from across the United States. However, they were so difficult to acquire in the sizes, quantities, and conditions that customers needed. So, using tools and jewelry from that era, he began making them himself. After a year, he had perfected a handmade belt that met his standards and made you forget the passage of 70 years. This was the beginning of ZIP and belts.
Five years later, in 2000, the brand was established as HOLLYWOOD TRADING COMPANY (HTC) and has since become a belt brand loved around the world. HTC takes pride in being one of the few brands in the United States to still manufacture MADE IN USA products and will continue its unwavering commitment to handmade craftsmanship.

As every piece is entirely handmade, there may be slight variations in the placement and angle of the studs.
