I wear size 34 trousers and ordered a size 38 belt - it fits perfectly. The belt is made in Taiwan and looks very high quality. All seams are flawless and look very good - the holes are reinforced from the inside. Great belt - it goes perfectly with my King Ranch Ostrich Boots. The buckle is detachable and looks great. As far as I can tell, the belt is real leather and not a cheap imitation. It's beautiful and heavy. Very happy with it - and it will probably be my favorite.
