I was looking for a belt. What does not rip or tear on the sides. I found this belt and it looked good on the Revain list. When I received the belt within the promised time frame I was very satisfied. The belt was exactly what I wanted, 1.5 inches wide, a piece of leather. It has a sizeable belt buckle which I expect will last for many years as long as I keep the same size. Thank you Revain for choosing great products.
