This belt was really nicely made and didn't smell like it had been in still water for weeks which unfortunately has happened to a few different sellers. This belt has been superbly crafted and the vegan leather is incredibly well made. The metallic silver belt loop is a really nice addition and actually makes the belt look more expensive while not actually being more expensive. I like to buy some of my belts very long because I like to layer and weave my belts depending on the clothes I wear and sometimes wear them lower on my hips and some sellers don't make their belts long enough to do this. So it was very nice to find exactly what I wanted in great quality that I know will last a very long time. REALLY GREAT PRODUCT!
