> Today, much of the Asian made shit is getting cheaper and cheaper, and cheap shoes and cheap composite stitched dress belts have cardboard in them. These parts do not do well in the water. They dissolve and disintegrate, they may even rot or put on mold if not dried thoroughly.

> In sneakers, you can remove the stuff easily when wet and replace it with a rubber sole you cut 'bespoke' for the shoe (glue it in only when it's dry again)

> I prefer sturdy industry grade leather (bullhide) belts or military style belts sewn of heavy duty horse halter nylon webbing. These work best for me.
