Allen EdmondsManistee Belt

Perfect belt for dress pants or chinos. Good quality.

Quality belt. I have four. Reasonable price for the quality.

I bought this belt in Walnut to match my  Allen Edmonds Men's McAllister Wing Tip  shoes in Walnut. The color match is spot on. I don't own the Dalton or other shoes in Walnut, but I would imagine the color match would be spot on for those as well. The belt comes with broguing that matches the brouging on the wingtips from Allen Edmonds. The quality of the leather is top notch - it feels nice and buttery and seems like it will age well. I get a lot of compliments wearing the shoes and belt together from people in my office.An important note - as other reviewers have mentioned, the belt does run short. I am roughly a 30 waist and got the size 32 belt, which is almost perfect but is on the short side compared to other 32 belts that I have. A good few inches in length shorter. Since I'm fairly slim, the belt length was fine, but if I was a 31, I would barely be able to use the belt. Get the next size bigger, and if you are an inbetween size (31, 33, etc) I would even suggest going two sizes up, unless you like having the tip of the excess belt ending one or two inches after the buckle part.

The Manistee belt has definitely evolved over the years, but it is still a great quality AE belt. Despite what another reviewer stated, this is a genuine Allen Edmonds product… maybe they just haven’t purchased an AE belt in a few years. The markings on the inside of the belt are the same as other CURRENT AE products. The walnut color matches my walnut AE shoes great…especially my new Lombard Chelsea boots, which I purchased this belt to match.

This belt is very well-built, and demonstrates the excellent, tried-and-trusted quality of Allen Edmonds. I love the brogue details and the two-tone leather. Though it looks absolutely smashing, I am still left in remorse about paying US$100 for a belt (and I even got a discount through an Amazon coupon). I wish something this stylish and high quality were available just a bit more affordably--I'd even feel better about paying $80 for a belt, as I recently did for a reversible brown/orange Cole Haan. In all, Allen Edmonds products are the best in the business, but I am only giving this 4 and not 5 stars because it is so freaking pricey.Finally, just a side note that some other reviewers have been right in suggesting that this belt runs a little on the smaller side. So if you are a 32, definitely order the belt in a 34, etc., as per the belt-sizing standard... Unless you are pretty skinny like me, ordering at your pant size is going to result in a slightly shrink-wrapped belt. Enjoy!

item too small, need to return or exchange ?

This is a real Italian leather belt.Beautifully crafted and manufactured by Allen-Edmonds. HR.

Allen Edmonds belts are really beautiful and nicely made. They fit well and are as expected but my main criticism is that they wear out easily. I've bought at least 4 belts by this company and noticed how easily the front will scrape and mar itself even when I'm being extra careful with the product. Somehow the belt just doesn't keep its tanning very well. I can't justify the costs of an Edmonds belt given its inability to withstand wear and tear. Their shoes are much better.

Belt for trousers. Excellent quality.

Excellent beltn in all respects - aesthetically beautiful, comfortable, extremely well made. Highly recommended.

Great belt. Quality throughout.
