Testimonials

Held Gear has maintained a 5-star shop on Etsy since 2008.

Since 2022, our online marketplace expanded to this homepage, eBay, and DePop. Even more customers have been reached through events and public markets, and many have returned for a replacement after five and ten years.

Here are a few testimonials from new and repeat customers.

“I loved my belt it’s beautiful and it goes perfectly with my dress.”

Doug Fir belt

“This is the sixth Held belt that I’ve purchased–five for myself, and one for a gift. The quality is excellent, and so is the service! I highly recommend this great Etsy vendor.”

Classic Held belt

“The material is light weight and waterproof…love the width, especially when you have a dog with a small head and large neck.”

-Joy

Bernard Artesina collar

“I’ve been wearing it daily for OVER ten years, more like twelve or thirteen now that I think of it. It’s been all over the world, from Canada to Antarctica!”

Cantaloupe belt

“Gorgeous quality. I love it!”

-Amanda

Classic Choker belt

“This is a great quality heavy duty casual belt – my husband loves it! Bonus: he was able to take off the buckle that comes with the belt and replace it with a vintage turquoise buckle that his mom gave him in the 70’s.”

Cacoon Wallet

“This is the second belt I’ve ordered for my spouse from Held. The first was probably about 10 years ago, and it’s only become unattractive for work in the past year. He was so happy to see his new belt! Very polished, looks great with his office attire, and built to last.”

-Kathleen

Classic Slim belt

“I got a HELD belt from Micah about 2 years ago. I wear it everyday. It looks brand new and has held up through thick and thin… Literally.”
