Spec me a new belt

Hi,

Keep getting belts that snap, I'm a big bloke and don't have problems finding belts that fit but as they are usually pretty cheap they keep on snapping when I tighten them up (Feel free to make fat jokes you jerks lol).

I'm looking for a good quality leather belt that wont snap after 5 minutes!

Make sure it's 100% leather, none of this coated stuff. It will last you ages

Budget? I have a Dunhill one for work and an Austin Reed one for casual. Both are great.

Oh come on, do you really need to fall back on the Internet to suggest you a belt? walk into a clothes store, see a belt you like and that fits your girth, pay and leave.

Actually what you suggest is what I have been doing for the past few years... They don't tend to last long!

Have you considered wearing braces instead?

Now it's quoted I can't even go back, untie the rope and subtly change the mistake....

I don't think belts are meant to be used to try and force your flab back. Off they are going to break.

Wow Bhavv... so nice of you to make fun of someone who has a weight problem!

I'm sure you would love it if someone made fun of you for one or more of your flaws...
