The leather covered buckle is made of thin, cheap material. After several uses, the tongue of the buckle breaks through the coating. And since this is a woven belt, the tongue will break through at various points on the cover. In the photo, the white creases are new. For the color breaks, I tried using a highlighter of the same color to hide the breaks. The fact that the base material is white makes the creases even more obvious. I would not recommend this belt as it will not look good for long. (Note that the belt itself is durable.)
