BREDAL Belts was started in 2009. The idea was to produce high-quality leather belts for men, an idea that had already been conceived and developed during Bredal's time at Levi`s Norden 30 years earlier. In the luxury market the right partners are absolutely crucial - it took time to find them.

BREDAL is not a leather belt - but rather a "statement". It is the final detail - the first thing people notice. The finishing touch to an outfit. Designed in Norway, crafted in the USA.

The hallmark of an exotic leather belt is that it has two layers. They all have a lining (backside) of Belgian or Norwegian cowhide, combined with an exotic animal - such as crocodile, alligator, ostrich, bison, lizard, etc.
These products have been on sale in Norway since 2009 in 8 of the finest men's stores in the country - such as Gunnar Øye and L`ESCALIER in Oslo and Bogart Cosmo in Trondheim. This was discontinued in 2021.

Now the time has come to add more products to the BREDAL brand by offering exotic leather accessories, as well as offering women an exciting selection, such as belts and bags, clutches, etc. Latest news in 2024 is Wild by BREDAL exotic Sneakers. There is CITES documentation (shows legality) on all species - except ostrich, bison and ray which do not require this. See separate tab Read more about CITES at the bottom of the page.

BREDAL - on the wild side - the online store is operated and owned by Bredal & Partnere AS - a marketing and branding company that has been operating since 1999.
