The Vanguard Belt: Premium Quality That Lasts Decades.
Tired of belts that crack after a year of regular wear? Our Vanguard Belt is built to outlast them all. This refined version of our best-selling casual belt offers the same lifetime durability with enhanced craftsmanship for both formal occasions and everyday use.
The Vanguard features polished and dyed edges with precision machine stitching around the entire perimeter. This isn't just for looks - it prevents stretching and sagging that happens to most belts over time. Full-grain leather means this belt develops character with every wear, looking better the longer you own it.
Slip this through your belt loops and feel the difference immediately. The solid brass buckle and matching keeper provide a reassuring weight and distinctive look that stands apart from department store options. This isn't just a belt - it's an heirloom you'll eventually pass down.
Why our Vanguard Belt outperforms the competition:
- Crafted from premium 9oz full-grain leather that develops a distinctive patina over time
- Machine-stitched perimeter prevents stretching and sagging even after years of daily use
- Polished and dyed finished edges for a refined appearance suitable for both formal settings and everyday wear
- Solid brass buckle and matching keeper provide perfect weight and balance
- Solid brass Chicago screws secure hardware while allowing custom buckle swaps
- 1.5" width compatible with standard belt loops
- Backed by our lifetime guarantee - we stand behind everything we make
Please Note: For the perfect fit, measure a belt you currently wear using our sizing guide. If you don't have a belt to measure, add 2" to your favorite jeans' waist size.

Customer Reviews
After receiving this belt, I'm certain I won't need to buy another for a long time.
Was tired of "real leather" belts wearing out quickly.
This one is not cheap but worth it in my opinion.
Since receiving my new belt (1.5" vanguard), I have enjoyed wearing regularly, and showing it off to friends and family! The sizing seems just a bit off from what I expected, but that could be my fault measuring my previous belt.
Material and build quality are absolutely incredible! I can't wait to wear this for the next 30+ years.
Superb quality belt. Excellent details for ordering correct size. Very high quality leather. Doesn’t stretch. Beautiful hardware.
This is an awesome belt. Hands down it's much better than most of the other belts I have used. I'm excited to see how it holds up over the years. It did cost quite a bit, but the quality is worth it.
Better than I hoped for
The Vanguard belt is well made, heritage is a great colour
Excellent product!
Beautiful product! Same as everything i have boughtfrom you.
You know, I've got 4 Popov belts now and I didn't think it could get better than the traditional, full grain, beautiful belts you were already making, but you've done it. You've made a belt that feels even more premium and luxurious. I wouldn't be offended to pay 30% more than what you're currently selling them for. Absolutely beautiful belt. Thank you
In an age where disposable means profitable, Popov takes a different approach. I have not been able to find a belt of this quality since my 2013 carharrt belt, but the vanguard seems even better. When you wear work pants everyday on steel construction they take a beating. other “work belts” have delaminated on me in months, this belt looks the same (with the exception of couple patina scratches you’d expect) as the day I put it on two months ago.
