I’m looking for a solid leather belt. High quality made in the USA. I see many options online, but would like some firsthand knowledge. I’m an electrical contractor and apparently I’m pretty rough on a belt. I bought one at the local co op two years ago and it’s already worn out. I had one I bought when I was in high school that lasted me until then as an every day belt. I haven’t been able to find one I like as much as that one.
I have a couple of dress belts, a nylon web belt that I wear with camo, and custom made solid leather carry belt that is double thick, but just a solid leather work/ everyday belt is eluding me. Thanks in advance.

I bought a working mans belt from American bench craft back in February, and so far it looks like it did the day I got it.

I’ve got an Amish made belt I bought probably 12-15yrs ago from The Wharf in Northport. It’s double thickness and I bought it to hold up a gun on my hip. It’s still nearly as stiff today as the day I bought it. Plenty comfortable even without a gun but stiff enough to support it. Doesn’t roll over at all. It was $50ish

Amish is the way to go, but they still don't last but a year or two for me. Carrying a ccw with 18 rounds takes a toll on them. My problem is that they look like a "rocking whatever" cattle brand with the letter missing after a while. If you don't know what I am talking about, google rocking R cattle brand and ignore the R in the first image. I guess the weight stretches the belt at the lower back. I know its not the gut that I have been working on for 25 plus years.

Though it is getting better these days, I still have dunlap's disease, which is tough on belts. This one has done well for me after two years of use. Not cheap though. Hanks Belts - The Everyday Belt - 1.5"

Thick and durable. Only belt I've ever had that didn't stretch.

Kester Farms Tack is where I bought the best leather belt I have. Heavy enough to make a good holster belt.
