It's happened I'VE RETIRED.
However, I will continue to produce belt buckles part-time on a mail order-only basis (part of retirement meant
moving to a more affordable location and I currently live in Ashland OR). Please plan ahead as availability is very
limited.

2024 is our 75th Anniversary!!
Jim Hayes established the company in 1949 when he came to Aspen to see the FIS races, and decided to stay. Renting a cabin for the winter from Charlie Patterson who later built the Boomerang
Lodge on the site in the late 1950's.
And my personal 40th Anniversary from when I first started working with Jim in 1984.
This special offering for our anniversary is a limited edition of 20 numbered and signed belt buckles, in the classic rectangle with Aspen Leaf on the front, to fit
1-1/4" belt (the back pictured above).
Ten of these will be going out to select local non-profits for fundraising purposes as our way of saying thank you to the community. $2050ea.
USED
SMALL RANGER SET
3/4" belt $600
One in stock
This buckle set is currently mounted on a thin 3/4" belt, 33" waist.
Another option would be to buy a tapered belt to fit from my belt-maker (wider around the back).
This buckle was made by my ex-husband Stephen Bates for our son, Tamas Bates in the mid-'90s.
He's since outgrown it and Ranger Sets are not really my style so I haven't worn it enough to keep it.
Snowboarder Belt Buckle
1-1/4" belt $500
This buckle was one of several new designs I made in 2017, and is the last one left. Unfortunately kicking around on display it's received several deep nicks which I can't remove. Probably unnoticeable after a year of wear, but a deep discount in price now.
Below are offers coming up for discounted belt buckles which I need to make to photograph for my catalogue. They would be available early 2024. Please email me if you are interested.
1. To fit 1-1/4" belt, rectangle plate, but slightly smaller than the usual medium plate. Hammered background. A plain (un-veined) Aspen leaf, with your initials engraved in the leaf. The back is slightly scarred, but can be hand-engraved with a short inscription. $500
2. Same as above, but with your logo instead of an Aspen Leaf and no initials. Also the Hallmark stamp on the reverse is slightly cut off. $400
