  2. Love baggy old Bills and baggy old Mercer. You know, their shirt labels used to read, "Baggier - Better."

    1. Andrew, if you have a shoe repair person nearby, they can usually shorten a belt. I've had a few worked on for $10 each. Hope this helps.

    2. dredging up this old comment. First, I followed this advice and had a luggage repair place shorten the belt. Great suggestion! in pricy Bethesda, that's a $20 job. Second, after I wore out one of these rigging belts, I found a pair of them, very lightly worn and in my size, on Poshmark (in February 2025) for $40 each. These are unique, particularly the buckles, so I was pleased about finding a few more.

  4. If I could revive certain makers of clothing and haberdashery, YRT would be high on that list.
