The listing says genuine leather, but belts at this tier are often split leather or bonded leather with a thin coating. Expect a stiffer, lighter strap than full-grain leather, and check the cut edge when it arrives.

How do I pick the right size?

Measure a belt you already wear from the buckle to the hole you use, then match that to the listed length. Do not order by your trouser waist size alone, since the strap runs longer than the waist.

It is a casual belt meant for jeans and chinos, and the strap width should fit standard belt loops. Check the listed width before ordering if you plan to wear it with dress trousers.

Can I cut it to length?

Many casual leather belts can be shortened by trimming the tip end and punching a new hole. Do that only if the buckle is removable or the strap is not stitched shut at the tip.

Is it good for formal wear?

No. It is a casual everyday belt, so it suits jeans and chinos rather than suits. For dress wear, look for a slimmer belt with a polished, simple buckle.
