The flat back of the product is a normal thickness which should be strong. The front, which holds the measuring tape, is made of thin, half-thick leather. The $1 saved as a result made the item unusable for use on the job site. Some design decisions don't make sense. Surprised that a quality manufacturer like Klein is selling this junk. Doubling the thickness of the leather on the front half would make it a great product. Designed by the counter, not the retailer.
