minus-squareafraid_of_zombies2@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoYou guys aren’t washing your belts? Alright.
minus-squaretheangryseal@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 year agoI’ve never even thought about it. I use leather belts and I throw them out after they wear out. You can’t exactly toss them in the machine. Now, the belts I’ve had over the years that were made from cloth went in the laundry with everything else. I don’t know why I never thought about this.
minus-squareTankton@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYou wear out leather belts? I swear I still have the same 3 leather belts I had 15-20 years ago
minus-squareRetix@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoThere’s a lot of shitty “leather” belts that look great but fall apart rather quickly. I also tend to go through belts on my work pants, but I work construction and that is hard on the leather

minus-squaretheangryseal@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoExactly. I have one really expensive belt my uncle gave me that I’ve been wearing since about 2012 and it’s just fine. I have trashed several Walmart belts in that time. I have a Dickies belt that has held up pretty well too.
