Buckle Up Learway Style... Buckle Up Original!

About Me

Learway Originals started in 2006 when owner and designer Linda Lear was doing some window-shopping in New York City.
“A thought came to me,” says Lear, “to design a line of hand-crafted, unique belt buckles that could be worn for any occasion. I wanted to create buckles that were uniquely designed taking inspiration from my personal interests, places I visited, friends and family.”
What started off as a hobby quickly became a full-time business for the Ocala, Florida native after a trendy boutique in the Sunshine State spotted Lear wearing a custom buckle and asked to carry her line in the store.
Hand- fashioned from a combination of natural materials, vintage jewelry, and Swarovski crystals, Learway Originals offers both elegant and whimsical styles for men, women and children.
Many of today’s hottest country artists proudly wear Learway Originals including Jason Aldean, Trent Tomlinson, Mark Wills, Jake Owen, Steve Holy, Little Big Town, Megan Mullins, Bobby Pinson, Lee Brice, Ira Dean, Keith Urban, Heidi Newfield, Emerson Drive, Chad Brock, George Jones and wife Nancy, among others.
Learway Originals have been featured nationwide from print to television including the Grand Ole Opry, CMA (Country Music Association) Awards, ACM (Academy of Country Music) Awards, GAC, CMT, Nashville Star, Country Weekly, Rolling Stone and more.

My Interests

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING…

"Linda's buckles are part of my everyday wardrobe. Since the day I met her I think I've worn my buckle every day. They are purely original, beautiful and I get compliments everyday. Linda is a sweetheart and someone I'm proud to call a friend." (Jake Owen)
"Both Nancy and I have a Learway Original Buckle, and we love them. They are truly unique. Our buckles were customized especially for us, and we enjoy wearing them." (George Jones)
"It’s awesome that she's able to come up with such creative and original pieces. I've received so many compliments on mine, and it fits my personal style with the John Deere theme. I love wearing things that are different – not the norm you see on everybody." (Lee Brice)
"I don’t have much custom artwork, and I consider this artwork. To have something that someone took the time to make just for you is really cool. I know I’m not going to see this same buckle on someone else walking down the street." (Mark Wills)
"If you're looking for a rockin' belt buckle, think Learway Originals." (Mike Melancon, Emerson Drive)
"I absolutely love Linda's work. I asked her to do a bass clef design, and she came up with something so original and creative it blew me away. I always get compliments when I wear it." (Aden Bubeck, bassist for Miranda Lambert)
"Learway Originals created a buckle for me based on my personal style that I feel reflects who I am onstage and off." (Jeff Cease, guitarist for Bucky Covington) .. .. .. <4A88YyfRMe218=>
