Dickies Men's Leather Mechanic No-Scratch Work Belt - Buckleless, Snap-On Belt

Immer wieder gerne

This belt looks exactly as pictured and it is a clever design that is easy to use. Sadly, the material is plastic coated or plasticized leather or something because it doesn't feel and wear like real leather. It isn't awful, but it just isn't great. It feels more plasticky than anything.I work on a lot of trucks, especially fire trucks and personal vehicles, both of which are extra important not to risk scratching. This belt does work as advertised and make it safe to use without worrying about scratching any components, especially those with paint.The belt looks decent and works correctly, but it just seems to be cheaply made. Both how it feels in your hand and while wearing it, but also with how the material wears over time. I can already see that it is not holding up nearly as long as a regular leather belt.

I love this belt. I used to wear one of these. It was the first brand I tried so I didn't think much about trying a cheaper option once it was pretty stretched after years of use. Price was the sole factor for me chosing something else. This belt is great quality and a good buy at this price. The $5 I saved was not worth it. The other belts held up well but were not as well constructed l. And that choice to go with the cheap belts was a painful choice my wife and I. This belt uses a single prong with a ball on the end. The other belts I've tried had double prong with no ball on the end. First off the single prong belt is easier to use. Secondly let me tell you if you're going to accidentally step on one of these belts in the middle of the night you want it to be this one. The other belts never went into my foot if I stepped on the prongs but I had some amazing blood blisters. And the prongs on the cheap belt would bend if stepped on, especially if you step on the leather side of the buckle. Once they get bent they weaken and bend from normal use. They eventually broke off and now I'm very thankfully back in a Dickies.

I am really glad I bought this belt! It's perfect. It does everything it was designed to do. There's no exposed metal, you can tell there's a metal plate sewn into the leather which includes the metal pin that sticks out toward you instead of having a traditional buckle. It kinda feels backwards at first putting it on, because instead of having the extra length of belt go over the belt into a loop after buckling, this one you slide the extra belt under through a loop and then notch it, if that makes sense. If not, you'll see what I mean when you get the belt, and either way it's not a bad thing, it just feels different at first.The best part to me is the fact that this belt will NOT set off metal detectors, as I have to pass through one every day at work. It's the only real reason I bought this belt so I am very pleased to confirm that it doesn't set them off.A huge added bonus is that this belt is probably the most comfortable belt I've ever owned, due to it's design of not having a metal buckle right at your waist. I have to bend down and over a lot at work, and sometimes which a buckled belt it could pinch or otherwise cause discomfort; not so at all with this belt, it completely eliminates any of that.The sizing is great too. I am a 33 waist, which means I usually have to find 34 pants/shorts and wear a belt. For the record I got the Medium 34-36 size, and it turned out perfect for me. There are seven notches in the belt, and I am right at the fourth/middle one.Lastly, the price was what? $12? And the brand is Dickies, a terrific brand which is known for work attire so I know it will last a long time. Perfect!UPDATE: I ended up coming back and buying a Small size of this belt as well. I must have lost a bit of weight, because I started needing the 5th hole and sometimes the 6th on the medium. The problem with that is, it creates a lot of extra belt and having that became a bit uncomfortable, so I figured the Small would be more my size. First, I will mentioned I paid $17 this time as I guess the price fluctuates, but still well worth it in my opinion. When I got it, it looked like it would be too small, but if you line the belts up side-by-side, the holes do match up to where what was the 6th hole on the Medium is only the 2nd on the small, meaning there's very little "extra" belt to have to tuck in, so whether I go with that hole or a little looser on the 1st hole, either way is more comfortable. I've added some pictures. The Small is 40" long, the Medium is 44".

Usually buy Snap On, but this was cheaper, snap on has 2 prongs to hold it in place, this only has one, but otherwise very nice product and reasonably priced!

justo Lo que nesesitaba

Nice light leather construction. I cut the tag off immediately since it was too visible. Got the medium size. My weight fluctuates a bit so I'm between the 3 middle holes wearing size 30 or 32 pants. Holds true to the name "No scratch". Thinking about getting a black one too.

I really love this belt . Anti scratch , leather and it fit . I would recommend this .

Leather and strong

Love these belt. Fit as sized

Took off a star because the initial sizing instructions said to go 2 sizes up from your pant size. I'm 36 waist and wear large for anything not sized in numbers. Based on this I ordered their size large 38-40 and this ended up being too big. It works on the tightest loop and their medium 34-36 would've been perfect. Looks like they've changed their sizing guide instructions and made it clearer and more accurate. Otherwise works well as a belt and don't have to worry about scratching the car when leaning against it.

Good fit , well made.

Great belt this is my second one, Last one I purchased in June 2021 lasted till I stretched out the last hole out
