Rated 3 out of 5 by TheAzDude Gibson Ostrich Concho Print Belt....
Firstly, It's a very attractive and nice looking Belt....however, the leather quality is not as good as other Shepler Belts I have bought. There is already some serious wear where the Buckle Pin meets the leather tongue of the Belt( I've had the Belt about 2 months and have worn it about 8-10 times#.... I like it, but the quality is not there#surprising for Sheplers.....Actually, I'm wearing the Belt right now, so that will tell you how nice it is to wear....but the long lasting aspects I suspect are missing.... I guess I wouldn't buy another "PRINT" belt because the front leather is too thin.....

Rated 1 out of 5 by Thumb One Star because it is actually a belt....
I have made many purchases with good satisfaction from Shepler.
The "man made materials" and leather was expected, but the leather is thin, 6 conchos decorate, but 4 are cheap thin metal not placed on center of location that is the first thing I viewed after unwraping. When wearing the belt I rubbed against a wall corner. This removed the surface coating on the lacing. The surface material looks like paint. The lacing is made of what looks like paper. I at least expected vinyl lacing. The price is far in excess of quality. This belt was ordered to match Ostrich boots I also purchased with this item. I can not return the belt, because I replaced the conchos and replaced the lacing. By and large, I could not be more disapointed in Shepler since the manufacture, Gibson, is owned by Shepler's principle.
