I needed a new belt. I wanted one that was stylish enough for work but could be worn with khakis or jeans. It helps. 100% leather is soft and the strap is flexible and not stiff. The back of the belt is made of soft suede and feels comfortable. The nickel alloy buckle is completely understated. It has a leather cover on the side where the strap goes through the buckle to prevent the leather from fraying over time in the one spot that is always worn down by the sharpness of the buckle. It comes in a small box with a drawer handle, making it the perfect gift for any occasion. I am impressed with the overall quality of this belt and will definitely purchase another product from MONTTIER. Highly recommended!
