Review on πŸ‘¨ Carhartt Men's Legacy Leather Brown Belt - Essential Men's Accessories for a Classic Look by Jason Dahlkemper

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not as good as five years ago.

I've had two of these and each lasted around five years. The best belts I've ever had. When the last one wore out, it wasn't difficult to buy another one. The new one looks and feels significantly cheaper. The old one had a soft skin feel and the new one felt very plastic. On the back of the belt is written "Genuine Leather", which is the lowest quality leather. Can't make out what's written on the back of the old one, but it's probably better quality leather. Maybe this one will hold up just as well, but it's a shame to go back and buy a product that's well made and worth the price only to find that over the years they've made quality materials cheaper. Update 5/23/20: As I suspected, this belt was less than two years old when my previous Carhartt belts lasted about five years. Don't buy it again as the quality has probably only gotten worse, even the price has gone up again. If you are looking for amazing quality look no further than HanksBelts. A little more expensive but high quality genuine leather (top quality).

Pros
  • Made from durable saddle leather for a worn, vintage look from the start. Zippers make it easier to change the buckle
Cons
  • Interchangeable
