Received this belt the other day and for the price point I am very pleased with my purchase. It appears to be all leather and not a knock off that you generally get at a large box store. Meaning, that the belt doesn't look as though the top portion is leather and the bottom portion is a sort of pressed /faux leather, as if they took the two portions of the belt and glued them together. The leather weave is constructed nicely and doesn't appear that it will work itself loose after months of constant wear.
