PBF Men's Brown Full-Grain Leather Belt – Heavy-Duty Double-Prong Buckle, 1.75" Wide

Surprised to see it is real leather. I worked part time around 2 years in leather industry and having a bit knowledge about leather. I can say this is 100% real leather. Exactly as described 1.75 inch width and fits perfectly in my jeans loops with complete ease. I usually wear 48 inch belt and this belt size 46-48 is exactly what i wanted. The thickness of this belt is perfect for carrying any tool and it will really help me to hold my device. Currently I'm working with Australia post and highly recommend this belt especially when you are having a lot of movement at work and have to carry tools/devices etc. I will surely update if something goes wrong in future. Excellent quality, worth the money.

I wanted a simple belt made of real leather and this is it. So happy with my belt. None of that fake or ground up nonsense.

Good belt works perfectly 👍😊

Thick, heavy, functional, does a great job. I've found it especially helpful for concealed carry, strong enough to hold a quality holster and even the heavier handguns while retaining comfort. The double prongs takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it proves to be extra sturdy.

This is no chincy thin, off the big box store rack belt. It's good thick hide consistent throughout the length, good tooling and burnishing on the edges. The stitching is well done and the hardware appears to be good and solid. I expect this to hold up well and if any issues in coming months will adjust the text here.A common rule is order a size up to go over thick jeans, and another size up if you're going to carry IWB. Amazon suggested ordering next size up in my app so applied all 3 haha. I suggest ordering true to size regardless for these belts. First thing I had to do was punch new holes and trim off the excess length. That's on me, not the manufacturer. This is a good solid belt capable of holding up your pants and whatever else you attach to it.

I ordered the belt according to the sizing instructions and was pleased that the belt fit as I had hoped. It is sturdy, yet not so stiff as to feel you are wrapping a piece of tire rubber around your waist, and not so soft as to lie like a limp noodle.I use this as my uniform belt and can attest to it regularly holding to the rigors of heavy items being supported by it, as well as it's intended purpose of keeping my pants in place.I highly recommend, due to the quality of the belt and the affordability of the piece.

Bottom Line First: Buy this belt. Competitive belts of this design and quality are priced much much higher.THE GOOD:Very good quality and priced right compared to similar full grain leather belts.The leather is thick and has a good feel to it. Two months of daily wear and no sign of cracking or stretching as with belts made of lower quality leather or man made materialsFits well in belt loops in Lee Riders, Wranglers, Levis - snug and perfectly fine except as noted below.SIZE: I bought the 34-36 size to wear with 34" waist trousers. It fits well but is just a little bit long - not enough to be an issue but I would prefer it to be slightly shorter.THE BAD:The prong ends are blunt and sharp and difficult to insert into holes. You can see in the manufacturer's photo that they are just sharply chopped off and not tapered or rounded as o0n most other belts. Ten minutes with a file and emery cloth to round off the prong ends and slightly taper them remedied the problem for me.Secondly, the double thickness at the buckle end where the belt folds back on itself and has two snaps to retain it is too thick and bulky to fit in the belt loops on any of my jeans or other trousers. That prevents the belt from being centered and leaves the buckle skewed to one side. Also, the bulky arrangement is slightly uncomfortable and may be why some others have complained about the buckle irritating their stomach. To remedy the problem I had a cobbler remove the snaps, cut the rear, folded part back leaving just enough to retain the leather loop, Thin it slightly to a taper and tightly sew it permanently to the belt itself. Now the belt fits in the trouser belt loops enough to center properly and the buckle area is less bulky. The holes on the belt front where the snaps were removed is not a problem as the the belt end covers them up.This is probably not an issue on larger waist sizes due to the longer distance between the two front trouser belt loops.For those using it as a pistol belt or tool belt worn outside trouser belt loops the original buckle arrangement would not be an issue.I really like this belt - even more so now that I addressed the issues that irritated me so I gave it a 4 rating. If it did not have the two issues I noted it would easily deserve a 5.
