Okay, so I finally caved and bought this Tommy Hilfiger belt after eyeing it for weeks. Here's the real tea:
First off, the buckle is *chef's kiss* - that embossed logo and enamel flag detail? So classy. It legit elevates my basic jeans-and-tee outfits instantly.
BUT PSA about sizing: The 'order 2 inches up' rule is LIES. I wear 34" pants and the 36" belt had me choking on the last hole. Had to exchange for 38" which fits... but now I've got like 8 inches of excess strap flopping around. Not cute.
Quality-wise, it's... fine? The leather has this weird plasticky sheen that makes me question if it's genuine. My coworker's 3-year-old TH belt looks more premium than this fresh-out-the-box one.
Pro tip: Don't even think about wearing this with dress pants - that 1.4" width screams 'casual Friday'. Works great with chinos though!
Final verdict: It'll do the job if you size up aggressively, but at this price point? Maybe save up for something more substantial. Still gets compliments though!
