Leather Tow Belt in Kotor, Montenegro
I just received my belt today and I must say that I can't stop looking at it. Just like all my other purchases from SBL this item will be fought over when I finally reside on the other side of the dirt. BTW I purchased the wrong size at first and spoke to the nicest customer service person ever.... I believe her name was Diane and she got me on the right path within 5 minutes. Thanks SBL for making products that make me believe in getting what I paid for!
I received my belt this past Friday. The first thing you'll notice is the weight and thickness of the belt. It's terrific to have a nice piece of leather. You'll enjoy strapping this thing on every time you wear it. The reason I only gave it four stars is because after just two days (I wore it on Saturday and Sunday), the back of a rivet fell off the belt (remember, this is the belt that my kids will be fighting for someday--well after two days, I was very surprised). Since it's the backside of the belt, I'm not very concerned, but was surprised none the less. The second small complaint is that the first two punched holes on the belt are too short to be secured down, so you have to use at minimum the third hole for the belt to be secured (make sure you purchase the right size--which I think is a bit tricky. I'm glad I purchased it though, and would definitely recommend it.
I have 2 old bull belts but wanted a belt in the tobacco color so i had to get a tow belt. WOW this thing is thick! You really could tow something with it. I havent worn it yet, but I imagine it might take a little while to break in like me other 2 SBL belts but I expect it to be just as great. If you want a super HEAVY DUTY belt, get this one.
This is what a belt should be...classy, strong, thick enough to not just hold up your pants but also anything you want to strap to it. Bought two in different colors and would not even look for another belt as these are the best I have seen even among custom made belts.
So I've bought so many Saddleback products that my family has considered staging an intervention. From bags, pouches, office gear, etc I've owned much of what Saddleback has produced. This one is a major letdown. The other reviews are correct in saying that the holes at the end of the belt are a huge downside. It allows for 0 flexibility as the years go by and severely limits the "lifetime" function of this belt. For a company that prides themselves as having a 100 year warranty this belt seems shockingly shortsighted. The upside is that the company seems prone to change and improve their products based on functionality so there's hope that this will eventually be remedied. My advice is to wait until a new and improved version of this belt is produced and then buy it. That's what I'm waiting for as I send my belt back for a refund.
