Aside from the obviously great 1.25" leather belt with high-tech catches for the buckle, I was amazed by the high-tech and heavy duty shiny brass buckle, technically a "finding". I don't think I've ever seen a buckle this cool before! and I was a leatherworker for some years. It might just be worth the price for the buckle. Oh, and did I mention it is very easy to trim with shears to the exact length you want, it's one-size-fits-all. I'' wear this everywhere.
