I am very satisfied with this belt. I would say more casual. Very soft and supple. I ordered the smaller one, 105 cm. It says it's for a 30-36" waist. I have a 33" waist and it fits perfectly. I would suggest ordering a size up if you are 34" or taller as you may need it Able to cut and re-punch holes.Other reviews say it's a glued leather, mine doesn't seem to be, but I didn't have to trim it either so I couldn't see the inside.I've had several leather belts and hated them.They appear to be short lived, break and scratch easily.This belt is much better quality, I don't think it's real leather.Came in a nice box, with a protective film and with the tools needed to remove the buckle and punch holes Can't think of a better belt for the price I have the black and brown and am very happy with both.
