Best Belt Ever

I was given one as a gift probably over 6 years ago. Since then I have given 2 as a gift and just bought a different design for myself. Incredibly durable, stylish, and in all those years never lost the belt stud. At one point one of the little screws in the back got lost and I got a free replacement... I wear this belt every day! I'm sure I will buy more as gifts as well as different designs for myself. Well made!

Amazing Belts

These belts are the best belts I have ever bought. The belt came exactly as I thought. I love this design! The belt will be used by my brother who is a landscaper. We choose the design specially because it is easy open and close, but the design is also so sleek it won't get caught on his equipment as his current belts do. I'm very excited to give it to him for Christmas!

Jillian S. about the Aged Enigma on Distressed Grey Leather Belt

Beautiful

The buckle is a work of art and is absolutely beautiful. The belt itself is surprisingly robust and it feels great in the hands, and it looks fantastic. Because of the pandemic and the holidays creating the perfect storm for mail delays, I contacted Obscure Belts because I was concerned about my shipment being lost. They contacted me the same day and basically told me not to worry. That is customer service. I’m very pleased with every aspect of my interactions with Obscure Belts and I highly recommend their products.

Beyond Perfect

Not only has the belt and buckle met my already high expectation but they have FAR exceeded it. The owner of the shop was also extremely helpful with a question I had so that is always a plus. My order even arrived earlier than estimated. The build quality on the buckle is amazing, it has a nice weight to it which is always a sign of a good high quality material. The mechanism works smoothly, the screw which locks the buckle in place is very easy to remove and adjust. When all is said and done this belt is the best belt/buckle combo I have ever owned!
