Hey all! I want to get my hands on a real, leather cowboy belt--one of the wide-ass ones maybe 1.5 - 2" in width. One that you can change the buckle if you want and will last the rest of my life. We don't have a cowboy store where I live so I'm looking for one online.
I've bought SO MANY belts over the years that say, "100% genuine leather" only to turn out to be layers of paper, cloth, and some shit that looks like gauze bandages. They wear, tear, and completely fall apart in less than two years.
So, have any of you bought a sturdy belt from a reputable online dealer?
**Please, for the love of fuck, don't Google "real leather belt" and then post links!! That's not helpful. I can do that myself and have--many times. It's virtually impossible to tell from photos until you have a belt in your hands. Sometimes even then it's difficult to tell if it's real leather or Chinese junk destined for the dump. I'm looking for people who have actually bought one and the name of the retailer.
