Good quality leather belt, great customer service.

The leather strap was cut from a very well tanned hide (appears to be from a reputable tannery), the thickness varies from 4.3-5mm. It is firm as the bridle leather is supposed to be first, but will soften and age beautifully. I requested a different buckle for this belt and was provided one.
I previously purchased oil tanned latigo and bridle belts. The bridle, in black color was thicker than this one (5.4-5.6mm) and firm, but in a couple months it has soften up, started getting some patina and became one of my favorite belts.
Both belts are light for the thickness and contain all attributes of a very well tanned leather straps.
Filson belts introduced me to the world of bridle leather, and Orion belts belong in the same league.
The latigo belt, was heavily impregnated with oil, heavy and didnt turned out to be my cup of tea. Quality-wise, it is just as good as other two belts I got from Orion.
Highly recommend to those who value high quality leather.

The product itself is very high quality, although I would prefer a dull leather finish vice the high luster finish on the belt strap.
My experience with Customer Service, which exchange my original purchase, was absolutely outstanding.
