New belt smells like fish.

Take it back and tell them their belt gave you an STI. Record the conversation and host on YouTube.

There is a very warm plaice in my heart for threads like these.

Efour · 18 May 2011 at 17:48

So it didnt smell at any point before when you bought it, put it in the jeans, etc?

Some things fishy thats for sure.

Any chance a 'Lady Friend' could possibly have 'Flossed' with it?

This. A £18 belt sold in a high street chain will cost them probably £6 to buy in. Shipping and distributors and wholesales etc with their cut and the belt probably cost £1 to £2 to make in the Far East.

Pretty common, particularly with a dying method in denim. Some of them smell horribly fishy. Always best to check, even if it's a good whiff instore

Im buckled here

Roll belt in dog poo, no more fishy smell..

Hastarius · 18 May 2011 at 18:25

Are you giving us the whole story?....there's certainly something fishy about this thread.

Nitefly · 18 May 2011 at 18:27

Take it back to the shop. This seems fairly obvious

I picked it up and took a long hard sniff, and yea, it stinks of fish.

ROFL.

Just tell it's too fishy and unworn.

Ok, I'm a student so £18 for a belt is quite a lot to me considering thats basically 2 nights out.

And yea it didn't really occur to me to sniff it in the shop, never really had this problem before. I would return it but I have removed all tags. So far I think I'll try the febreeze suggestion, or maybe the lemon juice one? I watched that program once where those two old women go and clean people's house and they seem to use it a lot.

And yea I'm pretty sure a girl didn't floss her beef curtains with it, thanks for the image though.

Maybe it's not actually a belt... maybe it's a cod piece...!

You beng a student is irrelevant, £18 is still a fairly cheap leather belt
