I told that to a fellow buying one in the store. I also told him that a Shell belt would last him a lifetime. He looked at the belt that I was buying and then said that he was not as fancy as a Villa Park Italian. Poor guy doesn’t know that the mixed ones like me all live in Addison. I ain’t got no trans am.Check out this photo in an email I just got from AE. Their Basic Wide belt is long known for being a short-lived piece, and even their ads show why. That puckered rippling is a sure sign that they will look ruddy within a few weeks of wearing.
I have several other styles from AE that don't do this and are excellent belts, but the Wide belt is not a good one.

I love the rich chili color in these!While I'm overall pretty happy with this pair, I'm quite disappointed in that AE sent me a pair that was not the same one that they sent me a photo of. They sent me a photo a few months ago, and I patiently waited for the sale. Come March, they said they still had that pair in store and would send them to me. Upon closer inspection, I realized the welt was not the same and the pair I received was darker. I didn't realize it until after I had worn them off carpet. But on the other hand, who would think they would send me a different pair since I told them I wanted a lighter colored pair that they sent me a photo of? I have read at least once on here that AE did this to someone else. I guess I'm just disappointed they were dishonest. The customer service I had with Charleston is long gone it seems. Being truthful though, these do look really good for a darker pair. Just not quite what I was hoping for.

Can always leave them outside in that SoCal sun and kickback and enjoy the weather, then after a few beers and maybe a few more, bring them in and bam! Sun faded Chili!It's @donkeyhoatie's fault for showing me that light-colored chili Higgins do exist (although kind of rare it seems).
