Nicely made belt, excellent leather and brass buckle. However, I discovered that it's an inch shorter than my old Allen Edmonds belt, meaning I have to use the hole 2nd closest to the tip of the belt rather than the middle hole (maybe the old one has stretched a bit over the last few years). Still, I felt this was better than getting one 2 inches longer.

One caution: this belt is very dark Burgundy, so dark that I initially thought it was the black Allen Edmonds Polished Cobbler belt I ordered at the same time. The only way to be sure was that the Burgundy belt has a brass buckle whereas the black one has a chrome buckle. It's also much darker than my Merlot-colored shoes from Allen Edmonds. However, compared side by side with my black belt, it became obvious that this was the Burgundy one.

Despite the dark color, it looks great with my navy, grey, and tan slacks and suits -- I just wish it were a little better match with my Merlot shoes.
