Arrived no less on time on Sunday! Thick leather that goes perfectly with the belt loops on my Dickie's work trousers. Leather does not wear out before the velcro. Thanks to another customer who answered a question about the length, I was able to get the exact size I needed. I wear a 36 waist on my work pants so they are a bit baggy. I bought a size 38 belt that measures 46 inches from tip to tip. There is a 6.5 inch velcro strap that fits perfectly when I adjust it to my waist size. Double velcro seams look solid. I'm disappointed with the hole punched at the end of the covered part, Boston has to show the strap on the hook. I think if the velcro peels off it's probably starting there because there are no seams around the hole. Just take a look. I don't know about anyone else, but I will never hang him there. You should get rid of the hole and use velcro, how about that! Too easy ;) I like the quality of the leather and the fact that the belt is made in the USA and sold at a reasonable price.
