I bought this in December 2016 and this is April 2018. The belt slips out of the holder buckle. It looks like the end of the belt frays and loses it's grip on the belt. The belt also has been unraveling in its stitching over the last 6 months. You don't really notice it much until you see more and more stitches loose. I question whether this is real leather or not. The belt doesn't just look worn in a natural way, it looks cut up and jagged as it is used. It no longer looks good at this point. I have had leather belts last for years. This won't be one of them. I won't buy this again and don't recommend that you buy it.
