Reply to comment by PersonVotedDown in My Levi's leather belt. 15 years and going strong. I wear it almost daily. by vainamoinens-scythe

You have to get single piece leather belts. Ive seen double-layer $120 belts fall apart on the welt, but I'm on year 12 of a single piece leather $30 one that's still going strong.

Double layer is fine as long as both layers are full grain leather. I have the Hank's double bison belt (two layers of buffalo hide, it's really thick) and it's insanely durable. It took a while to stretch and settle in but I expect it to outlast me. It comes with a lifetime warranty if by some fluke it doesn't.

I'll have to look into that one. I've had many, many double-layer belts fail from the welt ripping or just falling apart, I'd like to find one that lasts!
