Appears to be a quality belt. The best thing about this belt is that it was made in the USA not China from some scrap metal called leather. That alone makes it a good buy. I've been wearing it every day for 6 weeks now and no complaints so far. It's made of good leather. The only negative thing I can say is the size. I wear size 32-33 and usually buy a size 34 belt for a good fit. My choice was 30-32 or 34-36, I chose 34-36. Works well, but takes a while. Overall I think it was a good buy at a good price.
