Can someone shed some light on the Brooks Brothers belts and why there are so many different styles? Basically im looking for a black leather dress belt to go with my suits.

Here are a few belts that i am considering but from reading the description on the BB website i still dont know the difference between the first 3:

1)Calfskin Belt
2)Leather Belt
3)Vegetable Tanned Belt
4)Feather Edge -> edge tapers in

Im looking for something that will last so it has to be a single piece of full grain leather.

I own BB belts, and I think that you will find a better quality to price ratio buy purchasing a belt from Allen Edmonds (from their website.) I recently picked up a black belt from there and I am happy with it.

BB has some good sales.

If you can, wait for one of their 25% off sales. This makes them a good value.

I did purchase a suede belt at full price once as I had a giftcard and I needed that belt immediately. Besides, I was at the Madison Ave. store and I knew my local BB did not cary it.
