Allen EdmondsManistee Belt

item too small, need to return or exchange ?

Excelente. Muy elegante.

The Manistee belt has definitely evolved over the years, but it is still a great quality AE belt. Despite what another reviewer stated, this is a genuine Allen Edmonds product… maybe they just haven’t purchased an AE belt in a few years. The markings on the inside of the belt are the same as other CURRENT AE products. The walnut color matches my walnut AE shoes great…especially my new Lombard Chelsea boots, which I purchased this belt to match.

I bought this belt in Walnut to match my  Allen Edmonds Men's McAllister Wing Tip  shoes in Walnut. The color match is spot on. I don't own the Dalton or other shoes in Walnut, but I would imagine the color match would be spot on for those as well. The belt comes with broguing that matches the brouging on the wingtips from Allen Edmonds. The quality of the leather is top notch - it feels nice and buttery and seems like it will age well. I get a lot of compliments wearing the shoes and belt together from people in my office.An important note - as other reviewers have mentioned, the belt does run short. I am roughly a 30 waist and got the size 32 belt, which is almost perfect but is on the short side compared to other 32 belts that I have. A good few inches in length shorter. Since I'm fairly slim, the belt length was fine, but if I was a 31, I would barely be able to use the belt. Get the next size bigger, and if you are an inbetween size (31, 33, etc) I would even suggest going two sizes up, unless you like having the tip of the excess belt ending one or two inches after the buckle part.

I like this belt and have worn the exact same one in black for over a year. I bought the brown one only because of convenience and that its a known product and fit to me. The belt is nice and it lays well for a professional look with suits and business casual. I think the quality and life expectancy of this belt is good but not as great as it should be for the price. You can find a better value, if you have the time and desire to shop. If your time is valuable and you don't mind paying more, this is a good belt and it will show up in your mailbox, bada-bing!

This belt is very well-built, and demonstrates the excellent, tried-and-trusted quality of Allen Edmonds. I love the brogue details and the two-tone leather. Though it looks absolutely smashing, I am still left in remorse about paying US$100 for a belt (and I even got a discount through an Amazon coupon). I wish something this stylish and high quality were available just a bit more affordably--I'd even feel better about paying $80 for a belt, as I recently did for a reversible brown/orange Cole Haan. In all, Allen Edmonds products are the best in the business, but I am only giving this 4 and not 5 stars because it is so freaking pricey.Finally, just a side note that some other reviewers have been right in suggesting that this belt runs a little on the smaller side. So if you are a 32, definitely order the belt in a 34, etc., as per the belt-sizing standard... Unless you are pretty skinny like me, ordering at your pant size is going to result in a slightly shrink-wrapped belt. Enjoy!

This is a real Italian leather belt.Beautifully crafted and manufactured by Allen-Edmonds. HR.

(Edit: Read to end)I needed a new, larger, Manistee belt after I put on a few pounds. Previous review saying they're fake had me worried, but the seller was Amazon.com Services, and the picture in the description seemed to match the AE belt I had (Tan not black inside). What I got was presumably the same fake belt that previous buyer got. It is nowhere close to the quality of my AE belt in EVERY. SINGLE. WAY. This is a cheap department store belt with AE markings applied. First it is incredibly flimsy. See picture comparing my used AE belt to the bend in this brand new belt. The used stiffer belt is in the back and the flimsy belt in front is the brand new fake belt. The difference is very substantial. Second, The inside leather is black with a stamp. My real belt is embossed in tan leather. Third, The finish isn't the correct color for AE walnut. My real belt matches my AE walnut shoes perfectly. This belt's finish also doesn't match the depth and quality of the AE belt at all. Third the buckle seems to be the same size but is noticeably lighting and makes a much more pinging sound when handling whereas the real belt makes a clunking sound. This truly is a horrible excuse for a AE belt. I feel bad for the people that bought this and think this is what AE products are. This is not even close.Edit: Well I ordered the same belt from another retailer and got the same belt that Amazon sent. Unfortunately I think AE quality has gone downhill since my previous Manistee belt. Really too bad. Still one star.

Belt for trousers. Excellent quality.

The belt I received was a fake. Very light weight poorly packaged and not even real leather. Do not fall for this scam! They need to be removed as a seller!!!!!! Stay away

Excellent beltn in all respects - aesthetically beautiful, comfortable, extremely well made. Highly recommended.

good leather, great finish, just a bit short for my taste.

Great belt. Quality throughout.
