Of the 4 leather belts I have, my favorite is the 15 year old Gant cowhide belt, but it's worn out. For years I struggled to find replacements until I came across the Main Street Forge (MSF) leather belt. The measuring instructions are helpful for determining the correct belt size. The quality of the belt is first class. The elasticity is higher than expected than the Gant belt. The hole sizes of both leather belts are the same. The MSF has 7 holes that can come in handy in unexpected situations. The 3rd and 4th holes are comfortable but I like the 3rd better. Quality demands a price, apart from the fact that it is a product made in the USA. I keep it.
