Fire-hose Belt
Elvis & Kresse for Vaela
We are excited to be partnering with the fabulous Elvis & Kresse in bringing you this belt. On top of being a wonderful use of a former waste product, this belt goes so very well with our jeans.
This belt is handmade with the Elvis & Kresse signature decommissioned fire-hose. It is 4cm wide and is available with an antique brass buckle and eyelets, or silver finish buckle and eyelets. It's the belt you will never take off your favourite pair of Vaela jeans.
The belt is made to order, which can take an extra day or two.







Elvis & Kresse, The Fire-hose Collection
Elvis & Kresse was founded in 2005 to rescue London’s damaged, decommissioned fire-hoses. After a distinguished career fighting fires and saving lives the hoses were otherwise destined for landfill. We transform them into stunning life-style accessories through traditional craftsmanship and timeless design.
Due to the heroic nature of our vintage fire-hose each piece we make is entirely unique. Every year since, Elvis & Kresse have donated 50% of their profits from the Fire-hose Collection to The Fire Fighters Charity. This heroic material, once used to save lives, gets a second chance to keep giving back.
