It would probably help if people who post here were more specific in what they are hesitant about with the item. Like if I posted two military inspected jackets from say Kapital and Visvim I would make it clear I was only asking which one is cooler looking and had no interest in which was more authentic. Otherwise, one could easily assume I was looking for an authentic repro type thing.
For the racial thing, I really do think XWT only said Jewish to emphasize that Ralph was not Native American.That’s all I’ll say about that.
Ok, I'll give this a try. What do you guys think about these belts FROM A PURELY AESTHETIC POINT OF View?
NB! I don't care at AT ALL about the following properties:
1) authenticity
2) cultural appropriation
3) heritage
4) country of manufacture
5) price
6) SF approved or not
I only care about the following properties:
A) If **** looks good
B) Quality (but only to certain extent)
Now, can I please get a yay or nay on these two belts, when taking the above into consideration?
6) is at odds with A)

I may be wrong, but I don't think I've ever referred to Ralph Lauren's Jewish background.
But in any case, I personally wouldn't buy an RL reproduction of a Native American piece. In this specific case, I just think the originals are better in every regard. They're cheaper, more authentic, and your money goes towards supporting the communities that made these things cool in the first place. If it's a vintage-styled piece, the distressing also typically looks better on the original/ more authentic vintage piece, rather than the piece that was made to look distressed/ worn.
With what you’ve posted before if I had to choose I’d go with the Kapital because I don’t see a lot of black in your wardrobe. I don’t currently care for round buckles but I’m always changing my preferences anyway and if you like it who cares what I prefer. Kapital seems bold in close up but when you wear it most people won’t even notice at first anyway so that makes it kind of cool.Ok, I'll give this a try.

Looks wide enough to me, but I typically wear S or XS. I could see the scale being too narrow for a guy that wears L or XL.
