GREAT PRICE - For a Nice All Leather Belt.Review by Rich, 2010-06-11
I don't know if you have done a lot of shopping for a quality all leather belt lately but they are expensive. Yes you can find belts for this price but most are NOT all leather even though they might look like it. I know since I have 2 of them now that are starting to fall apart in just 4 or 5 months. I do have a quality dress belt that I paid over double the price of this one, but it has lasted for quite a few years now with hardly any sign of wear.
This is a all leather belt, I could not find any indication that it is not. It's extremely attractive for casual wear and looks like it will last quite a while. The buckle is fairly heavy with a pewter finish and well made. The belt felt a bit stiff at first, but seems to be softening up the more I wear it. Although it is all leather " probably cow hide " it is not as soft and attractive as some of the leather used on the expensive or designer belts that are out there.
This belt went threw a treatment called oil tanning or chamoising , where stiffer leather is infused with various oils to soften it. The Indians used this type of treatment for the clothes they wore to make them soft and wearable. You can feel the oily texture on this belt, but fortunately nothing has come off as of yet to stain my clothes.
Amazons photo is deceiving as to the color of the belt and the buckle. After you finish reading this review and hopefully give me a thumbs up on it, go to the product page and check out my photo under customer images. That is the actual color of the Belt and buckle.
Also the width of the belt is wrong. They have it at 40 MM wide when it is actually closer to 38 MM which translates into 1 1/2 inches wide. I don't know why they cant give us this in inches to start with. Who the heck knows or even wants to know what a MM " Millimeter " is. I had to look it up.
As to the stated length:: My belt is 4 inches longer than the actual stated waist size, enough to go through the two loops with a inch or two to spare. The fit could not be any better.
When I first bought it I thought the name Columbia indicated it was possibly made in South America. But no it's the company name which probably has nothing to do with South America. It's made in " You guessed it " CHINA.
I hope I don't have to eat my words of praise for this belt 6 or 8 months down the road. I guess time will tell. I'll keep you posted if anything goes bad on this belt.
A little wide & thick

I love Columbia products in general. This belt is good if you need a substantial belt. My opinion is that I like a slightly lighter weight belt for jeans and casual slacks. I was in a Columbia store last week and noticed that they had a lighter weight one that would be perfect.

Sturdy, well made/designed belt.

This is a high quality and beautiful belt that looks nice with casual dress or jeans. Much better in person than even the picture shows. Columbia has got a winner here!

Review by David Williams, 2009-12-28
This is an excellent product made out of high quality oil tanned leather. It is rugged, wears well, and seems to improve in appearance with age. I cannot think of any negative issues with this belt.
