I wear this belt a lot and it still looks like new.  Two problems:  The buckle is so heavy and the belt so slick that it falls out of my belt loops and shoots to the floor as soon as unbuckled (a real pain to remember when going to a public bathroom and you don't want your belt in the toilet!)  The other thing is that the reversible side (brown) isn't really usable because the tag and impressions (made in, brand, size, etc) in the brown side are right in front and blaringly obvious.
