A Good Leather Belt is NOT Hard to Find


A GOOD LEATHER BELT IS NOT HARD TO FIND


The question is how will you know if your belt is real leather?
Honestly it's very hard to tell by just a label or stamp on the back.  All too often the belt is NOT genuine leather but a leather-like product that has none of the characteristics of true leather.  Generally you will not find out the truth until you have worn the belt for while.  Then, it happens.  The belt begins to crack right where you buckle it.  The holes split.  You begin to see a cardboard like layer showing through.  Oh not again!  Yes, that is probably a layer of cardboard in between a two pieces of bonded leather.


The best way to know you are getting a genuine leather belt is to buy it from Sole Survivor. SOLESU belts are made of full grain leather.  Full grain, properly tanned leather does not split crack or peel.  SOLESU belts are made using only high quality hides sourced from professional, reputable tanners.
