I'm a pilot and I use these belts for the reasons you mentioned while flying. I got a couple of the canvas casual belts as well for summer fun. I would not use these belts for a dressy occasion or with a suit though. Because of the way the system works the belt buckle area looks bulky and too casual. I would not compare the leathers from Allen Edmond's to the Anson. The Anson leathers are cheap looking.
I was comparing the price of Anson belts with those by Joseph A. Banks & Men's Wearhouse. I found that prices are about the same or less however Anson has a bigger variety of buckles & colors to choose from.
Track system belts have gotten very popular, and they don’t bend around the buckle as much, making them last longer. I like Anson since I’ve met them a while ago. The variety is nice as well. Thanks for watching.
Tom, I have an old ratchet belt. The buckle weighed a ton compared to my regular belt buckles. How are the current a son buckles in terms of weight? Thank you.
Yes. On their website, it says they use premium full grain leather. I’ve had some of them for over 5 years, and haven’t experienced any cracking at all.

Hi what color is the brown strap you were demonstrating with?
Tom, I have an old ratchet belt. The buckle weighed a ton compared to my regular belt buckles. How are the current a son buckles in terms of weight? Thank you.
They aren’t too heavy. Maybe a bit heavier than a traditional belt, but not by much at all.
Thanks for watching.
Do they sell them in stores now?
It looks like they are still online only. Thanks for watching.
Seiko? If so, which model?
Seiko skx009
Really great belt recently bought one and would like 3 more.
Sorry Tom but for my hard earned money kore makes the best ratchet belts for men, hands down. Esp if you carry a firearm.
Are they real leather?
Yes. On their website, it says they use premium full grain leather. I’ve had some of them for over 5 years, and haven’t experienced any cracking at all.
