Lavemi Men's Real Leather Ratchet Dress Casual Belt, Cut to Exact Fit,Elegant Gift Box

Update May 7, 2021: It's been almost 3 years. This belt is still worn daily. It's looking a bit scratched up, but the mechanism still works like it was brand new. The belt is separating in places and falling apart. I've had to cut additional pieces off the buckle end of the belt because the teeth that hold the buckle to the belt stopped gripping the belt and would fall off at inopportune times. All in all, I've worn this belt, daily -- even throughout the pandemic -- for 36 days short of 3 years and it still is wearable and the mechanism works like new, but it is worn, and it is time to replace it. I will buy another one just like it. Update May 17, 2019: It's been almost 1 year. This belt has been worn daily. For the most part, it still looks and works like new. But I have one complaint that I didn't have a year ago. The buckle portion has started falling off the belt every few days or so. The teeth that grab the end of the belt no longer hold it securely. I will need to cut another half inch off the end and re-seat the teeth into the end of the belt so it holds it tight again. No stars removed from my review. End of Update. I LOVE this belt. I will wear a belt until if falls apart. For me, that's often 3 to 5 years of everyday use. Then comes the time to buy a new belt and I can never remember how to size a belt. Is it my waist size? Is it an inch or two longer or shorter? I just never remember. This belt is truly a one size fits all and it's up to me to cut it to size. The instructions in the product description said to add 9 inches to my waist size and cut the belt at that length. The instructions that came with the belt, said to add 7 inches to my waist size and cut the belt at that length. I chose to err on the side of caution and add 9 inches to my waist size and make the cut there. I figured that I could always cut it again if it was too long. Well, with waist + 9 inches, it really is too long, but I've been wearing it like that for a few weeks now. When the belt was brand new, I could hear the crispness of the ratchet. But now with a few weeks of wear, the ratchet sound is much quieter. I'm hopeful that it just means that it's getting broken in, not worn out. But still, I've got another couple of inches to cut off, so if it wears out, I can cut it again, which will move the spot where the ratchet catches and it should work like new again. I would definitely buy this belt again. I might even buy a couple others in different colors. And certainly they would make good gifts.

For the price, these are great belts. In particular the ratcheting mechanism for tightening and loosening is fantastic. It’s not a high-end leather belt. With that said, I wear them everyday. I mentioned “them” because I purchased a brown one as well as black. Additionally, you can mix it up with all outfits since you can change the buckle by switching between different ones while keeping the belt. Holds pants extremely well because of ratcheting and quick release. I’m hard on belts - toss them around. These have held up well. Would I buy nice leather belts in the future? Sure. But I plan on using these as long as the company makes them.

I love this belt way more than I expected. Its very adjustable, so it should fit almost everyone. Its nice and thick, and supports a concealed carry holster easily. It does look pretty nice also, so you can't go wrong. Depending on use, you may have to replace the actual belt part after a year or two of use, but for the price it's not a big deal. I can't see myself ever using a traditional belt again. This thing is incredibly easy to put on and take off, but it doesn't lose grip or loosen while you wear it. The ratcheting mechanism is strong.

Great Functionality – But Not Truly Leather I really like this belt for its functionality. The ratchet mechanism is smooth and makes adjusting easy, and the cut-to-fit feature is a great touch—makes it feel almost custom-made. I’ve actually bought two of them and will probably buy more. That said, I’m taking a point off for the material. While it looks like leather at a glance, it clearly isn’t. One of my belts cracked after just a few months. I’m not sure how they can claim it’s 100% real leather, and honestly, I wouldn’t expect that at this price point. I’d happily pay several times more if it were made from genuine, high-quality leather. Still, for the price, it’s a solid choice. Just go in with the right expectations.

Nice belt. Good quality and adjusts as needed.

I love this type of belt design! I first purchased a clip like style belt in Thailand and I literally had it for 6 years. They are so convenient when you want to tighten or loosen your pants. I knew it was time to let it go, but I didn't want to! Well, I found the answer! I love that it's plain, yet so clean and stylish at the same time. It was easy to cut it down to my size. My dog ended up chewing it a bit but ehh, i guess he loved it too! Thank you!

Best belt I've ever owned (and I'm old). Planning on getting others in different colors, since this hasn't worn out at all in more than a year of regular use.

Good & Average

This belt is nice and tight and its so easy to take off the belt

Horrible product. The product top layer just came off on wearing it for the first time, very bad quality.

Easy to change the length extra comfortable and durable

Great quality
