Skill
Vito Valenti has over 30 years experience in making a range of scaffolding tool holders, also known as "frogs", together with heavy duty belts. Throughout this time he has developed his own bespoke designs which have proved to be practical and extremely durable. These designs along with his innovative production techniques have earned him the reputation for providing genuine handmade articles, which are long-lasting and excellent value.
Quality
All frogs are hand-crafted from high quality leather hides to ensure comfort and durability. They are hard-wearing due to the heavy gauge leather and are also studded for extra strength. The variety of products comes from Vito's long association with his customers and his understanding of their requirements. Please note that all our frogs are designed to fit onto belts of up to 2 inches in width.
History
Vito started his career as a shoe-repairer in Sicily, branching out into various other leathercrafts, initially a range of made to measure belts. His skills also include the making and repairing of equipment associated with horse-riding, dog-handling, golf, fishing, camping and many other leisure activities. Locally he is "famous" for rescuing various run of the mill items which customers are loath to throw away.
I never go anywhere else for scaffolding holders – Vito's are the best by far.

The belts are really strong and the frogs well designed. Makes my job easier having reliable equipment.
Mike Mitchell, Scaffolder
I bought one of Vito's belts fifteen years ago and it's still going strong!
Tom Gray, Scaffolder
I first asked Vito to make my belt & frogs 30 years ago and I still have my belt. My frogs have been changed only twice in all that time. The prices are good, the quality can't be beaten, if you want the best look no further.
Peter Kernaghan, Scaffolder
I'd definitely recommend them, everyone at my place uses them as they are far better quality than any others.
