Shipping & Pickup

  • Ma’iingan Designs ships within Canada (and other locations may be available upon request).

  • Processing times vary depending on the item. Ready-to-ship items typically leave within a few business days. Custom pieces and kits may take longer (details will be shared before payment is due).

Belt - making Kits

  • Each kit includes the materials and supplies listed in the product description. Some kits include optional add-ons. Please read the full listing to choose the right tier for your project.

    If you need one, a standard utility knife from a local hardware store will work.
