Review on Gelante G2016 BK L Men's Genuine Leather Accessories & Belts – A Long-lasting Style Statement! by Sean Garrison

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for a suit, not for everyday use

I rarely leave reviews but I was compelled by the terrible quality of this belt. I don't know what I was expecting but not this. I have a faux leather belt from ASOS and two handmade belts, a saddle leather belt and a real leather belt for reference. I didn't expect this belt to be of the same quality as my crafts, but I didn't expect my cheap faux leather belt to be of better quality. First of all I don't know if it's full grain leather as it claims, the weight and feel of the strap doesn't feel right. Something like styrofoam? Secondly, looking at the finish of the belt told me that it would not be worn more than once. And finally snaps. The clasps feel cheap and bulky - I couldn't get the belt buckles through either end of the belt. Overall this belt looks like part of a cheap suit and not for everyday use. I could get something better from Wish lol. For reference, I live in new and vintage leathers - from pants, jackets, shoes etc to leather accessories and I have a combination of leathers (lamb, cow, exotic etc) so I'm very comfortable. I am confident in my review of this belt. So yes I will be returning this belt without question. I'm not sure whoever gave this belt a good review has ever worn/had quality leather, but they don't. Great for a costume but not for everyday use as advertised

Pros
  • There's something to it
Cons
  • Hard to say
