This belt certainly looks good, but appearances can be a bit deceiving. The product states that its genuine leather is a blend of leather and polyester, with poly making up the majority. So I think that's a bit misleading. The color is decent, but the outer plastic cover starts to wear out early in the strap hole, which is what I use most. Speaking of belt holes, the size of the belt is really small. I ordered a large one and my belt buckle closes at the penultimate hole. I think for 40€ you can do better.
