Are there any genuine leather quality track belts?

True Story:

When i was a Bochur in Yeshiva in Eretz Yisroel, i walked into a suit store to buy a belt. Not knowing the Hebrew word for belt (its Chagura) i used the only word i knew for belt from the Chumash.
"Do you sell an Avnet?", i asked.
The owner looks at me with a semi-confused look. "What are you", he asked me, "the Kohen Gadol?"

 ;D ;D ;D

Wow and that just reminded me of a story. When I was in the Mir I went with all the rest of the guys to THAT lady in meah shearim who sells used yerushalmi bekeshes. After choosing one I liked I wanted that nice geshmak belt too, so I asked her if she has any avnetim! She understood me immediately ! Now I wonder if I shud have said chagurah  ;D
(Still wear that bekeshe every Purim ;D)
nothings impossible- the word itself says Im possible

actually in that context and the intent of you wearing it, avnate is not the worst word to use

Timberland full grain leather from Costco.

Guaranteed that the buckle won't last as long as the leather.

Don't know about that one but I never had a buckle wear out.
Only on DDF does 24/6 mean 24/5/half/half

Don't own any.

Therein lies the difference. These reversible buckles are held together by a small pin that wears out.
