My wife made me a paracord belt so I wash mine! Also highly recommend if you can get one, shit comfy.
Those you absolutely need to wash...
A real leather belt tho is going to be antimicrobial from not only the leather itself but the tanning process as well.
Like, there's a reason a strip of animals flesh isn't actively decomposing even if its stays clean and on a shelf.
Obviously tho if you're actually getting piss or shit on any belt, you're doing something wrong.
