Elastic belts are free size and normally don’t tear at all. meaning they can last for life.
I am kind of surprised that they are not commonly recommended in the anti-consumption/ buy it for life communities. Despite the fact that replacing normal belts with them at scale would save the world shitload of resources that are spent on normal belts annually.
Side note: I don’t recommend wearing jeans or suit trousers on daily basis, as there is more durable options that can last for longer time.
Photo is for example, as this is a generic item.


Do you have any recommendations? Cause I go through one of these probably every two or three years.
As I said elsewhere, I bought my last belt from Hank’s belts. 100 year warranty leather belt. That is a different style belt from the one in this topic though and so perhaps not what you want.
If you are looking for the style of this picture a web search for “lifetime warranty belt” finds several options that are this style - but since I’ve never heard of the company until they showed up in a search I cannot recommend any. Do some investigation on the company and decide which one to risk buying from.
