Hey guys, This drop has a lot of history for us as a company (and especially me in particular). It was the first drop that I merchandized years ago and the first product that really blew every other drop out of the water. The response on reddit for both the product and the drop was phenomenal and as I recall, we sold a 100 belts in less that 7 hours. It doesn’t sound like a lot now, but at that time it was a record for us. Oh those were the days :) Beyond that historical context, I wanted to give you guys some good news.
Pricing: We have been working with Orion to get better pricing for the community and were able to secure another drop point at $34.99, which you can see on the drop description.
Sizing: I also want to give everyone who is new to the drop a heads up on the sizing. Orion belts do not use the same sizing as other belts and it is very important that you watch their video on the description page of the drop, and measure your waist. Orion’s belts run smaller than most traditional belts. The standard recommendation for belts is to size up by 2, while for the Orion, most people find that they need to size up more. Again, please watch the video and measure your waist. We are all very excited to have Orion back on Massdrop and are loving the community’s response to it. Thank you everyone for voting on the polls and making this possible and thank you for coming with me down memory lane.

kunalkumar Which brass buckle are we being offered? The first 3 photos of the natural belt show a different brass buckle than the last few.
chadddcYou'll be receiving the brass buckle as pictured. The pictures are for the same buckle and natural belt. Those might be just lighting differences. Hope this helps!

kunalkumarWow. Really? Look again Mr. Massdrop rep... I'll help you out. Click on the first picture in the posting, which is the one of the rolled up sunset brown belt with the stainless steel buckle. Now click over to the next picture of the natural belt with brass buckle and sunset brown belt with silver buckle. Notice the brass buckle. Since we have both buckles side by side, do they look like the only difference is brass vs stainless steel? Now click over to the next image. Notice again the same brass buckle on natural belt. Same thing with the third picture.
NOW, click to the seventh picture listed. This one is titled "Natural with Brass Buckle." Look closely at the brass buckle. One of these things is not like the other.... Clearly these are two different brass buckle styles. Tell me more about "lighting differences."
Actually, nevermind. Here's a side-by-side photo.

kunalkumar"runs smaller" why the hell would that be a thing? You mean to say they are too incompetent to use industry standard.

buthurtmanYes I agree! I'm not happy about this purchase at all. You don't order ONE size up like a normal belt but TWO sizes up?? Now I'm stuck with this useless piece of leather because I didn't order TWO sizes up??
