I purchased this same belt (2 of them) @ Nordstrom several years ago so I was excited to see the same belt on Amazon. I LOVE this belt & the reversible black/brown is perfect & easy to switch out. I wore out one of my other ones and I prefer to have a "back-up" on everything. I did notice it was about an inch smaller than the ones I purchased @ Nordstrom...otherwise, exactly the same. Love it & will probably buy another one when I wear out the old one.
