I hate belts that rip apart after less than a year of wear. Can anyone recommend me some manly man leather belts that will survive all the abuse I give it? No weaksauce belts plz. Only thick leather belts preferably in dark brown or grey.

I've been really happy with the quality of my Dries Van Noten belt. After a year of continuous tough wear it's still in tip top shape.

I just bought a handmade belt from Wana in London, round the corner from Saville Row. Fat, brushed nickle buckle, expensive, but looks like it'll wear forever.

I with leathergoodsconnection had more interesting buckle designs. Everything else looks really good.
