This belt was a gift. He was excited. At first we thought it was too long because it is very thin and the adjustable part didn't tighten the belt enough. It turned out that behind the buckle there is a notch that can be lifted, which frees the skin. We were able to trim off the excess material and do so precisely using the lines printed on the inside of the leather. It took several attempts because we were careful not to cut too much material at once, because obviously there was no fixation of a belt that was too short. Anyway, when we clamped the leather material back in, the strap was perfect. The buckle is a good weight and a nice matte color. Everything looks fine and the belt arrived well packaged.
