NOT a Vanguard Belt
What you see here is NOT a Vanguard Belt.
A new Vanguard Belts customer replaced this sad strap of name-brand Chinese-made stretchy synthetic garbage with a new Vanguard TS Belt. He asked me to give his old "belt" a proper Viking burial. I have instead chosen to use it here as an example of what NOT to buy from your local retail store.
If your belt looks similar to the one in these images, it's time to replace it with a proper belt from Vanguard Belts. Try one out -- I'm confident you'll love it.
Don't keep wearing that tattered, shredded Chinese abomination any longer. You deserve a better belt.
