The belt on my bellows has worn out, yet again.
Any recommendations for something more durable?

There's leather, and then there's leather. Drop a note to Niall and Daniela about your needs. They may well sort you out. http://www.kellehertrad.com/index.php/

Nylon belts are tough and can open your beer bottle too.

I've been using a nylon web belt
with a plastic side release buckle
for 30 years. I bought both at a
fabric store. $2 total.

Re: Bellows Belt
your friendly local supermarket/supers store will have loads of leather belts....choose one about 2 - 3mm thick by what ever length and width is your choice. They will be good value, and you can select a length to suit your waist size.
