I ordered this mostly on the strength of the brand, expecting to get a stout belt that would be appropriate for use with blue jeans, something that would hold up to extended use. It is not immediately obvious from the photo that this model is not perforated along its entire length, so don't buy it if you are looking for one that can be cut down to fit. The leather is heavy enough and the buckle is very nice, better than I have seen on most belts of this type. It has one fatal flaw: where the buckle is attached, they have shaved the leather so thin that I expect it would not last me more than a few months. I returned it for refund.
