Just bought a pair of Loake Dorchester's and am now searching for a matching belt and came across the Allen-Edmonds also in chestnut burnished calf... what does everyone think of the match? does anyone who has experience with either one of these products have a better option as I think the belt is a bit too light in colour?

cheers ... my problem now is finding an online retailer that ships to Aus at reasonable cost ... Zappos have the belts for cheap but won't ship to Aus ... Amazon has the belts but wants $40! for shipping ... does anyone know a good online retailer to order from?

Seems to be a decent match. I personally, however, have always dreaded the perfectly matched shoe/belt combo. I feel something close enough is, good enough.
