Closest I could find was this one from Allen Edmonds in Walnut.
How about these:

http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/allen-e...lcategoryid=0&fashionColor=BROWN&resultback=0
(the last one is $98, but i'm sure the shipping will get you) it's the closest to the shoe color though.

I guess it kinda looks close. I wonder if anyone would notice the slight variation in color from a few feet?
Here's a belt from Harris:
looks like it matches the shoes perfectly.
it's $175, but if you already shelled out that much on the shoes. You might as well.

These guys will be within your budget, and they make phenomenal belts. I own two, and will own more!

The belt need not match the shoes exactly, as you quite rightly suppose ... it's hard to notice the difference when shoes & belt are always three feet away from each other.

That looks darker than the one I was looking at. Walnut calf looked really close to me.
Brown belts with brown shoes - you don't need to match the shade. I like to get close though.
Free Shipping and returns.

Looks quite a bit like the Rutledge.
until i lose some more weight....they don't know that I even have a belt on......never mind matching...
One should be a little wary when trying to color match online images. Lighting conditions, particularly taking pictures indoors under different types of artificial lights makes any direct comparison difficult. And there may be some natural variation in the leather.
Sorry I am no help on your real question, but I think getting fairly close is good enough, as there will be 2.5-3 feet of space in between.

Yes indeed to the online color matching thing. Gaseous, some of the better deals are probably online. But when I bought a pair of AEs in bourbon color, I found it best to go into stores and look at belts up against the shoes. At the time I bought them, AE did not make a belt in bourbon (they do now). I found many belts that had I looked at online, would have probably seemed like a good match, but really weren't. Best match/compliment that I found was J&M that I never would have picked online.
That AS chestnut is a nteresting color. Close, but not the same as walnut. Maybe more red in it. A little darker. Let us kow where you land.
And as others have said, you don't need an EXACT match. To me, it's kind of a "you'll know it when you see it" up against the shoes.
