Well, I haven’t actually worn the belt yet. I was surprised to see that the blank, at least, was made in China. Foo on me for not checking. I, in my make-sure mode, ordered it too big, but that was easily enough taken care of. I like the color of the belt. The buckle looks good. Still haven’t found a real-good method of closure for these stroked-out, uncoordinated, uncooperative fingers, though. This kind at least closes tight enough that I’m not walking around with plumber’s butt. Now, if I could just find one that opens easily. This one’s easy enough, if I don’t cinch tight enough that I can’t relieve the tension on the catch. Best I can do is give ya a we’ll see...
