KORE Men’s Top-Grain Leather Track Belts | “Express” Alloy Buckle

Awesome Belt!!!! I own 4!!!!!!

They have exceptional customer service. I filed for a return due to wrong color and wasn't happy since I was going to have to order a return label due to no printer. They shipped me the correct belt with a return label. Glad it worked that way as I did want to try the belt.The fact it is so easily adjustable is fantastic. Very simple to use and feels great. Looking at buying another in a different style.

This was a hard review to write. This belt is both the best belt I have ever worn but for the absolute shortest amount of time. The belt was delivered May 21st it is now June 19th so I got just shy of one month of use out of the belt. And for the premium price tag I was hoping for slightly longer.Lets start with the good. When it comes to comfort, functionality, adjustability, ease of use and cool factor it is simply the greatest belt there ever was. It adjusts perfectly to your waist size. If you eat too much is is easily re-adjusted. It is the perfect stiffness. It looks sharp. It's all around awesome.On to the bad. If you look at the pictures it delaminated. The advert says it is made of real full grain leather but they don't tell you that is is only a piece no wider than a fingernail glued to the rest of the belt. And this was from normal wear and tear. I work in IT so I basically sit around all day, it's not like I was doing action sports and the belt didn't hold up. In the short month I wore the belt it only experienced some brisk walking at best.Final thoughts, this is the belt for you if you want to own the greatest belt ever for 1 month.

"NOT a Gun Belt" the description warns—as if fearing a class action lawsuit or somesuch. But it's certainly rigid enough to be a gun belt—far more so than any typical leather dress belt.Kore offers a variety of belt and buckle styles. I like this one because it looks like an old-school belt, and doesn't draw attention to itself. I don't want a buckle that says: I'm a gun belt! Even if it's not 1.5" or whatever is required to finally meet that threshold.I can't comment on durability and longevity—hence 4 stars for now. Certainly wearing a kydex-holstered EDC on this belt will put more strain on it. If you plan to EDC, I'd suggest getting the stitched "dress" belt, or going with Kore's 1.5" designated gun belts.

Belt has been great for appendix IWB carry. Doesn't sag or flop over even with a full size pewpew.The buckle looks good enough for formal attire but in the couple of months I've been using it already shows some scratches on the finish.Update* 15 months of usePictures for reference. I've been wearing this belt 80% of the time for the past 15 months. I only have 2 other belts purchased at the same time that I switch to every now and then (they are in better condition). I'm going to keep using it as a daily beater but I wouldn't wear it in an outfit with a tucked shirt.

So, I got these based off a recommendation by Ashley Weston (shameless plug, but she knows her stuff.) After researching and comparing other belts, Thank goodness I followed her advice and picked up these belts.The belts come with a nice carry bag for when your travelling, which is a nice touch.The belt itself is really good quality leather with just the right amount of thickness and stiffness. The end piece doesn't lays flat when wearing the belt. The end piece on other belts i own tend to stick out, which looks tacky.The buckle really clamps down on the belt once trimmed. To get a nice straight edge I recommend using a ruler and a razor box cutter. I used sharp scissors, but the leather curled (which is normal) causing an uneven edge. This caused a separation between the top and bottom leather. Not a big deal with a straight razor cut leather trim.I got a black and light tan color with the "express" buckle. As mentioned based off Stylist Ashley Weston's recommendation for its classic look. I will be ordering a darker brown in the near future to match another pair of shoes and sport coat.Adjusting the belt is really simple with the small, nearly invisible adjustment lever on the bottom edge of the buckle.With these you get the best of everything. Quality, fit, comfort, and classic style. No holes or leather warp that lessen your look or make it look like you don't care (or can't afford a new belt). Do yourself a favor and get these. You will have a clean look that draws complements and the right kind of attention.

I've had this belt for 3 years and I have to tell you it's the best belt ever. I wear it everyday to work. Not a scratch on the belt. The bucket shows some wear but very minor. I use to replace my belt every year with those cheap belts you find in any department store. Not anymore Kore belts are worth every dollar.

The stiff leather is thick and still looks practically the same as when I purchased this belt 6 months ago. I thought it an expensive purchase but it has been worth it. I have worn it everyday since I received it and am amazed it has held up so well. I first received a gift of a similar but much cheaper "as seen on TV" ratchet type belt a few years ago and really liked it. The problem is the quality of the leather. It cracked/split and looked really bad after this same length of time I've owned the Kore belt. I received a second replacement "TV" version as a gift but the quality was this time very poor. It constantly slipped so I just used that belt and the older buckle. Poor quality control I guess. Anyway, I think it's nice to read a review after someone has experienced a product for sometime. I would definitely recommend this Kore brand to anyone that likes this kind of belt.
