No.

The suede used is not like other materials and will not "soak up" that much sweat. I sweat quite a bit when training and my 13mm sole leather (sans suede) belt actually stains very slightly whereas the 10mm suede does not. I give it a quick brushing every few weeks and it looks nearly new.

No problem. Don't underestimate your potential or the need for a good belt. Heck, we spend hundreds (if not more) on leather jackets. A $100 - $150 belt will last you a lifetime.

The Fedora Lounge is probably not the first place I would go to for advice on weightlifting belts! That being said, I used to do some competitive bodybuilding and powerlifting in my younger day and still train 5 - 6 days per week at age 60. I have owned and used a lot of belts in my day. If you...

Along with the great caps I also like those saddle shoes Eric. Not sure I could trust myself to keep the white ones clean though!

Congratulations! The jacket, although new, is already showing some nice graining. Wear it in good health!

Ouch! :)

Place your order now and maybe you will have it by the time you finish your Masters degree! :)

We share similar temperament. At the very least I would have to re-direct my energy to blowing off a few hundred rounds at the range or perhaps shooting for a PR in the bench or deadlift. You fellas have way more patience....and tolerance.... than me...........

I have the same cap Eric...and I am even wearing it today. Glad I got mine while still available. One of my favorite caps! Enjoy!

Beautiful grain right out of the box. Will be curious to see how it develops over time. Congrats!

I think Jared pretty well summed up this long-time debacle.

I have three GW jackets that I purchased used. I really like them all but no way in hell I would wait even two years, much less four. Too many things can change in that period of time. YMMV

I concur wholeheartedly. 4 F (-15 C) air temp with wind chill at -15 F (-26 C) this morning in the snow belt capital of Ohio. Been wearing my ANJ-4 the past 1 1/2 weeks.

And it is itchy to many of use. I have one alpaca lined Aero and it will be my last.
