Theres 2 things I'd note about the belts that I didn't know before hand. One is that they are THICK. So thick that I can't really move a large teklok around on it once closed. The teklok will close, but it's a snug fit. So snug that I took some 600 grit sand paper and rounded off all the many corners and sharp edges from the teklok so it wouldn't eventually cut into the belt. The second thing is that they are made to be cut down to fit a smaller size, but you'll have to do some work to get it there. I'm a size 30-31 so the 32 belt is just to big. When I went to cut it down to size, as it's designed by the company, I found that there wasn't a second set of threading like there is at the end of the stock belt. Probably not a problem since it's glued together, but I don't want the chance of the threading coming out or anything giong wrong with it over the full 100 years of it's warranty.
The size 34 I sent back because it was too big next to my old handmade belt (made from horse tack)
It's thicker than this image gives credit, how thick? my micrometer puts it at .395", or just over 3/8".
When you go to cut the end off to shorten it you'll find that you end up with an unstitched end
and that it's pretty hard to get a needle through 3/8" of leather o_o. The end thats cut is also untreated
a little resolene and quilting thread later
and I ended up with a ghetto rendition of the original.
100$ might seem like a lot for a belt (I ended up paying about 130$ after shipping because I sent the larger one back), but it's worth it. I have no doubt that I'll be wearing this belt for decades, as well as using the bifold wallet from them.
