Saddleback Leather makes good wallets, haven’t tried their belts.
Nextbelt has a nice ratcheting system instead of holes for sizing, makes adjusting easier, especially if you carry.

A recent thread recommended Slidebelt and Hank's. Slidebelt is a little ghetto, but gives you a perfect fit. Hank's are high quality and will last you a long time. Only thing I don't love is the buckle seems a little weird, kind of off center.

I've been wearing a crossbreed classic gun belt for a few years. Leather with a nylon webbing strap as a liner. It's a tank of a belt. Pretty sure it's American made.

I work with a guy who does leather work on the side. He does make belts for people. Not sure what he charges or anything but a bunch of guys get him to make various things for them and love his work.

Etsy, seriously. Find a handmade belt from someone in the USA for $40 and will be on par with the quality of a $100 belt from a company that advertises.
These guys are well rated
As an alternative, make your own - it's really not difficult and a cool conversation starter.

damn, I wasn't expecting to open this thread and see so many good options. The OT never disappoints.
check out Tecovas, it's a boot company however they make great belts as well.
I'm a lil OCD and like my belts and boots to match. They have a ton of colors and the buckles can be swapped out.

I've been wearing an Ariat belt similar to this for about 4 years with zero wear.
1.5" width seems to be the perfect width.
ETA: nevermind, I thought they were US made....
