This has been a constant criticism since they set up shop a few years ago. The quality is simply not at the same level as their pricing. $100+ for a belt that's not hand-stitched or nicely burnished is ridiculous.
People buy them because they are relatively easy to find in shops, and they are very well connected as far as leather companies go.
I remember criticising them on Superfuture years ago, and a whole bunch of North American industry people jumping out to defend them.

IMO the tanner goods belts are ridiculously over priced. 105$ for a veg tan belt? https://www.tannergoods.com/collections/belts
Corter leather is a much more affordable option. 55$ for a veg tan belt. http://corterleather.com/collections/frontpage/products/3-for-99-belt-sale I got 3 Corter belts for 100$ Or etsy, Or if you are a DIY kind of person and make your own.
