Brands that are very good at making belts. Not brands that sell expensive belts just because of their reputation.

I am very happy with the quality and finish of the belts I have bought form Leather Goods Connection. They are not dress belts, but are made in the US with pride and quality.

Coach and Boss both have good belts. Not very sure about the Boss since I only have 2 belts from them and both are of excellent leather.

Paul Stuart.

Allen Edmonds not bad, BB has a range of belts, the more expensive ones are nice.

Hugo Boss is ok but not for over $100.

I would say Coach....

Are you talking leather quality or construction - I mean a belt is pretty much 2 pieces of leather and a buckle attached to it. Not much to construction except the stitching.

I have 6 or 7 AE belts, they are okay, but I find the dye comes off the light brown ones and the look worn very fast.

They still make things in the U.S.? I thought everything was made in China these days.

Maybe? I don't know. I'm set with belts about 2 years ago, I bought around 10 belts from them and 8 of them are made in US.
