This belt is made of attractive leather with a very nice buckle. This is a modern design but with a classic look. The main feature is the lack of holes, giving it a smooth, polished look. The magic is in the ribbed interior that locks the pin in the buckle, allowing the strap to be adjusted in quarter-inch increments. It is very easy to disconnect. He had to cut about six inches from the end and it wasn't easy because the plastic notches were difficult to cut and he had to tape the ends and use a flame to burn the cut edge. Now the belt looks perfect and fits perfectly.
