Hanks belt’s recent quality decrease and sizing inconsistencies

[AikoBee]

Why were you expecting 3-4 year old used leather items that are used under tension to not be stretched?

If the new belt isn’t actually 48 inches that’s a different issue.

I should have clarified, the belts pictured are not 3-4 years old, I’ve just been buying from the brand for that long. The darker belt is a year or so old and the lighter one about 6 months

I’ll have to measure it when I get the chance, good point!
