Carhartt Men's Signature Casual Belt

Comment

I had to order 3 and return 2 to get the right size. I have 2 older Carhartt Mens Journeyman Belts that are a 50 size [black and brown] I had to return earlier ones of those as my size was way too big, as it is, ive drilled at least 6 to 8 holes to make those fit. i have lost some weight [yeah] and while i did wear pants at a 54 back then..... My actual size now, using a cloth tape is about 51, but i do have some pants that are a 50 below is the Carhartt size how long the leather actually is, and hole to buckle is longest farthest hole to end of leather belt New Carhartt belts. May 2018 Size. Leather measure. Hole to buckle 50 54 51 48 53 49 1/2 46 51 48 i kept the 46 !!!!!! which actually fit, but i wish i was really down that far!! some reviews have said that a 48 was too small [short] what universe are they in??!? Other than measurements, these are great quality [as most carhartt stuff is] These are made of good leather and metal, and have lasted 8 years and while are worn, still are OK So, not cheap, but end up being OK per year LOL

My father was in the leather business. He owned a factory that made cobbled shoes for nurses and nuns. Every summer my brother and I were allowed to work there. I just received my belt. Its not leather. Its a slurry of leather particles molded with glue into a form that can be processed into a form that could be made into a belt. Think particle board. Is it useful? Oh yeah! But not for a quality belt. I would expect this misdirection from anyone except the company I bought it from. The belt is worth $12.

This is a great belt. Its thick and its one piece. Not a laminated and glued belt like you typically find for less. This is my second one and they just keep on going. They will stretch so get your exact size. UPDATE: 6 months later. The second one I ordered is clearly a bonded leather with a thin top layer. It has really stretched and on the inside of the belt you can now clearly see the little chopped and formed pieces of leather - contrary to what I indicated above. I guess you cant really tell until you get some use on it. At least I cant. The belt is really soft now and it feels like its going to give way. As I read through the reviews, you can sure tell the fake reviews. Its almost like they get paid per review. Subject is usually "Five Stars" and then a three or four word review follows. Bottom line: there is no way this is a full grain bridle leather as indicated by the description. Mine has not fallen apart like others have reported in their reviews. So is it worth the $30? Hindsight says probably not. But, it is about half the cost of a high quality, full-grain, legit belt made in the good ol USA. Its your call.

Buckle Broke just a moment ago while taking my trousers off. I am so disappointed. The belt itself seemed strong but the buckle didnt last for 5 months the least! I was expecting to have this belt for a long time for at least 3 years! I am very disappointed.

The belt looks aesthetically pleasing when its first purchased, but after a few weeks of wear the quality issues really start to come out, after just a few months of use is already falling apart. A buddy of mine said that carhartts quality has gone down recently, I dismissed it as maybe just one bad product but this belt along with a few other items that I had purchased from fleet farm allowed me to see the degradation in quality that this one great company has come down to. Its saddening because I used to swear by carhartt but I can no longer do so.
