Also have that belt. Wore it today. I'd say that it's been with me since 2008. I wear it multiple times a week still feels sturdy af

My AE belt is actually my ex wife's belt from high school, so it's closer to 20ish years old, and still going strong.

Omg I was just thinking this week about how long I've had my AE belt. Early 2000s here too

I have an AE one from 1998 that still looks great.
Worn this belt almost every day for about 10-11 years now and it's still holding on.
I have the same one and probably the same age. I love it
I also still wear my AE leather belt from highschool. Shit works.
We have the same belt. I had it for 12+ years now and it's still holding on despite once using it to tie two rowing boats together
bought another AE one. I was shocked how well they hold up with daily use.
I have that exact same belt. Wore it to work yesterday. It's been my main belt for just as long.
