Yeah I hear ya! I had occi suspenders that for close to 20 years. Still not a damn thing wrong with them.

That’s what made me finally start buying their stuff. All the reviews of their leather are saying 15-20 years as a baseline. Only complaints I ever see is weight. Started with just the 2” belt cause my cheap ones were about to die, got the 5 in 1 hammer loop cause my cheap one died, then got these suspenders last week cause my belt was starting to kill my hips. Plan to replace my other pouches as they die also. The Ox Tools Outback isn’t a bad pouch for the money, but I figure I’ll still kill it pretty quick.
