Our Mission

In a world driven by import production and poor quality, Macks Belts stands as a beacon of hope for the revival of American craftsmanship. Embracing a rich legacy deeply rooted in the golden era of manufacturing, the Macks Belts team has embarked on a mission to become the new leader of the American belt industry. Our team stands proudly at the intersection of heritage and innovation, under the visions and leadership of Mack Alexander who is driven by a patriotic passion to dominate the industry by providing customers with the highest quality U.S.A. handcrafted belts that are built to last for generations. 

Mack initially turned to leather crafting as a therapeutic outlet following a traumatic brain injury that ended his Navy SEAL career. Retiring out of the military during the height of COVID-19 lock down he was unable to find a job. But It was while shopping at a local Salvation Army that would change his life and kick start his entrepreneurial journey of starting Macks Belts. 

 

He originally started repurposing old $1 belts from the Salvation Army into dog collars. However, his trajectory changed when a former teammate requested a belt for an upcoming deployment. Drawing from his military experience, Mack designed a belt he knew could meet the demands of the the operators life. The quality and durability of his belts gained widespread popularity within the special operations community prompting Mack to specialize solely on belt production!

The machine's intricate details and Mack's presence convey the craftsmanship and dedication behind each buckle's creation, offering insight into the meticulous production of Mack belts.

At the core of every one of Macks Belts is premium American leather and American steel turned on vintage American-made machines, some of which date back to 1940 like this Brown & Sharpe automatic screw machine below. These resilient machines, with their sturdy steel frames and timeless designs, are more than historic; they embody a time when meticulous craftsmanship was the norm, and these vintage marvels are the machines that guard the legacy of a Mack Belt.

 Macks Belts are built on a foundation of quality and this begins with every raw material we choose for our Mack belts, it is this dedication to detail that propels our belts from accessories to exquisite American-made masterpieces  that will last for generations.

Our unwavering commitment to quality is rooted in patriotism which is why we build our belts in U.S.A. We are full speed ahead setting a higher standard for American made products! We look forward to earning your business and building you one of the the toughest belts on Earth.

Phenomenal materials and craftsmanship. Absolutely BOMBER!!! This is a belt that will likely last decades. Looks even better in person than in the website photos. So good that I also ordered the Operator and Kodiak belts. Mack is crushing it!!!

Fantastic Product and Customer Service.

So far everything about the product was better than expected. I did have a couple issues and I was politely reminded that the delay in answering was due to 2 Hurricanes. I felt terrible I was that unaware. First issue had to die with billing and was handled Second issue, I ordered a size 34 and I need a size 36. When my e mail regarding an exchange was received I was sent a return authorization and shipping label. I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my belt. I want to thank everyone at Mack Belts for a very pleasurable experience. I cannot say enough about quality and customer service. From one vet to another thank you for your service and involvement with our brothers and sisters.

One word - Quality

The Rigeback Belt is the best belt in my closet. Amazing quality and a super clean look. Thick, durable leather and a stylish, invincible buckle.

USA Corporate Ventriloquist Comedian - Recipient - Loves M A C K B E LT S!

My partner could not wait to show me his b/day gift, I organised him online from Australia with ease and efficient delivery turn around. I am so pleased as he loved them. He said, what stood out for him was the QUALITY of stitching, leather and buckle craftsmanship and was also excited to see USA and MACK imprints on the metal, cool! Marc Rubben said he will be wearing his black belt, on stage with much pride and loved the story also behind their production. To be honest, as an Aussie woman, in love with RM Williams I thought we produced the best but now I am convinced we are the close 2nd. Love the LOGO too

Best belt I ever owned

When I was looking for a new belt this one checked all the boxes for my needs. Thick not flimsy, strong heavy buckle, metal retaining loop vs a piece of leather that would break in a few months, works great with holsters and tools hanging from it. The style is awesome and their goal of bringing manufacturing back to America is a great example of what American products should be, the price is 100% justifiable. Excellent work!

Quality Belt

I was initially skeptical. By virtue that some things are too good to be true. However, they are correct. The belt is true to size. I wear a 32 Jean and the 32 belt is perfect. Not like other belts where you have to play the size up game. Quality belt, you’re getting what you pay for. This is one sturdy SOB.

My Purchase of the Hatchet

This is my third belt I’ve purchased for myself and 6th overall, with others given as gifts. Including this latest purchase, all belts have been solidly made and now proudly worn. The GOAT of belts.

Bi Brother

I bought a Mack belt for my Big Brother. Last night he contacted me & thanked me. When I was an aerospace machinist, he was my mentor & if he saw bad quality or didn't like something, he would tell me. Thanks Mack belts: another home run!!!

Absolutely in love with this belt!!!

the buckle is amazing US craftmanship with an amazing single stitched leather belt. Even the sizing suggestion was spot on. This belt has become one of my go to belts, which i only really wear three this one being the tope one, when I'm not in uniform. The weight, the feel is just perfect. I am very pleased with this belt. Give it a try the belt will not disappoint you nor will it fail you. Great job Mack Belts!!!

Loved the 1st one too much

This is my second Mack belt and I’m just as impressed with the quality as I was on the first. Fit and finish are great and it just feels better than other belts I own,

Hatchet Belt is GREAT!

Great belt! Will definitely last a long time. Looks great.

Probably Order too Large a Size

I love the belt and it is everything I was hoping for. The only issue is I think I ordered too large of a belt. I have plenty of room to expand but only 3 holes for hopeful weight loss. Can anything be done?

The Governor Belt

I already own another Mack Belt - The Freedom Belt, which is by far hands down the best and strongest belt I’ve owned for more than a year now- it’s indestructible!

However, I decided to pick up another belt recently that is a bit more elegant to wear with dress pants at work and church. The Governor looks and feels lightweight, yet screams like it’s tougher than nails. I really love the iconic belt buckle. Simple-tough- and made in America! I also love how the belt comes packaged with Mack’s story in a simple elegant cardboard box. I couldn’t be more pleased with this belt.

My family thinks I’m a little crazy at how excited I was about a belt, but after I’ve gone through over 30 or more belts in the last 15 years that just didn’t hold up and would break apart at the seams or crack. I bought an expensive Italian leather belt a few years ago that the stitching came apart after a few weeks and the buckle literally fell off. Another the buckle bent. I’m a big guy and tough on belts…That’s not going to ever happen again with a Mack belt. I’m hooked and can’t wait to get another belt and expand my collection.

If you want a higher quality belt, made in America by a veteran…do yourself a favor and pick up a Mack belt today. Trust in all these positive reviews…you won’t regret it. Spend the money it’s worth it!

Patriot Stitched Belt

I was hesitant at first due to price. However, i do believe in paying for quality especially on products that are going to last. This belt is definitely worth it. Now that i am holding it in my hands and wearing it daily i can appreciate the quality and craftsmanship. I truly believe this thing will last me the rest of my life. No more $20 belts every year. 10 out of 10!

I strap my two dog leashes to my belt & walk my boys for miles and miles hands free.
These 65Lbs dogs have destroyed 2 of my mainstream belts this year. For years they have participated in disfiguring the mainstream belts in the heat and humidity. The Governor belt takes the 130Lbs pull like no other belt. There are no signs of the punishing abuse that I put it through. I can wear the same belt everywhere for any occasion and still look like a badazz gentleman.
