Smathers & Branson

Smathers and Branson is an independent label that specializes in creating needlepoint belts. Inspired by needlepoint belts they received from their girlfriends as gifts, friends Peter Carter and Austin Branson became interested in these accessories. Sharing an entrepreneurial spirit, and realising there was no brand who sold these types of belts, the duo set about founding their own brand. With a focus on quality, Smathers and Branson’s products are lovingly crafted in Vietman by skilled craftsmen; in turn providing employment opportunities for thousands of people.
