I see people making gorgeous belts with really thick leather. I mean, 7-9oz, double layered! That would be up to nearly a cm thick! And so heavy too! Other than durability, is there any reason for such thick, heavy belts? Don't they weigh down on the waist? And then, add other stuff in pockets!. Wow! Rather than hold trousers up, I would worry that they will pull then lower. Just wondering.
