Who is BUCK!T...?

Hi! We're Craig & Jamaica, and we run this bicycle-based, eco-business in Girona (SPAIN)

We produce handmade products from a variety of upcycled bicycle parts, tyres and tubulars of all colours, styles and descriptions!

 

We travel absolutely everywhere by foot or bicycle and don't own a car, never have!

Wherever possible we use sustainable methods, products and materials. 

The tyres we use are donated by Pro-Team mechanics, customers / fans and our local bicycle shops - every belt is one less tyre in landfill! 

​ 

If you live in Girona and have tyres to donate, please click here for more information...

belt- / watch- strap is made from used and/or defective bicycle tyres or tubulars

wallet bodies are made from tubular tyres, with inner-tube pockets inside

string for tags and pendants is from tyre side-walls & elastics are cut from old inner-tubes
tags, 
envelopes & cards are all made using 100% recycled paper (post-consumer waste)

wallet boxes + presentation cards (eg. watchbelts) are made with upcycled card

belt- / watch-buckles are sourced locally or within the EU

chainlinks (for earrings) are new and are extra links discarded when fitting a new chain

Prior to assembly / manufacture, the upcycled materials are cleaned using eco cleaning products & good old fashioned elbow-grease!

Our materials...

As most* of these tyres have been ridden on streets, through parks and down singletrack; they may contain small debris like glass, grit, thorns, etc. Although we inspect & scrub each one thoroughly prior to sale, we can't guarantee to have removed every offending stowaway.

 

*Almost all BUCK!T belts are made from used bicycle tyres or tubulars. However, a small number are made from defective tyres returned to suppliers. In both cases they are tyres saved from land-fill!



Note: BUCK!T is in no way aligned or connected to any bicycle tyre manufacturer(s).

All tyre manufacturer's names and trademarks remain the property of those respective companies.

A note from our 'legal' department...
How do I know what size belt to order?

Most of our belts are cut to length to suit your order, though some have already been finished to a specific size.

Our belts are sized according to your waist measurement - the easiest way to measure this is by measuring around the part of your body where you will wear the belt, and then giving us the size in cm or inches. This is particularly pertinent to women who have to decide whether they want to wear the belt through their trouser loops or perhaps around their natural waist. 

Each belt has six holes punched in it, giving you a range in size of 5inch / 12cm (eg. 32-37" / 81-94cm)

We will size your belt so that there are a couple of holes either side of your sizing.

Gents, if you wear jeans with a waist of 32inch, then order a 32inch (32") belt 

​​

 

How do I order a belt?​

Browse through the belts in stock, choose the one(s) you like and add them to your shopping cart.

Note: You can filter the available belts by type or colour to make your choice easier.

When you order, make sure you let us know what size each belt needs to be finished to.

Checkout & pay using your PayPal account or a VISA or MASTERCARD credit or debit card.

(All our payments are processed using a verified PayPal Merchant account - a trusted and secure payment portal)

We will usually ship the belt(s) within three days of your payment. 

 

Do you make custom orders?​

Of course! We have made many custom belts, wallets, ID-belts and watchbelts over the years!

These are either made from our own stock of tyres OR for a special request or occasion, or we can turn your own tyre(s) into a wearable memory of an event or race that you took part in. We can even do custom keepers with stitched detail to illustrate a climb or course you've ridden. We love a challenge, so put it to us...!



What are your shipping options & conditions?

Parcels are shipped with a tracking number via Spanish Post.

Note: Small items (watchbelts, wallets, etc) normally ship as a "letter" and may need to be sent as a "parcel" in order to add a tracking option.

Should you prefer a courier, this can be arranged, though outside of Europe incurs a heavy fee. 

For insurance, please also contact us and we will bill you the additional cost before posting your order to you.

(Please note that it is often possible to ship two or more belts for the same price as one!)
