As other reviews have noted, the product description says 'full grain leather' but the actual product only says 'genuine leather'. There is a distinct difference between the two skin descriptions. The seller should clarify this aspect of the product. I bought this particular belt over other similar options, mainly because the description said it was 'whole grain'. I paid more for the belt thinking I was getting a very high quality belt. Upon receipt of the belt, and by all indications, it's not actually "whole grain". Other than that I have no complaints about the delivery of the product and I love the fit and look of the belt. The color corresponds to my ideas ("British Tan"/"Cognac").
