ADA Collection Women's OBI Classic Wrap Belt - Adjustable Waist Cincher for Dresses, Kimonos & Casual Outfits | Perfect for Work, Date Night & Special Occasions

I received the belt with multiple scratches/scuffs on the surface.I own the ADA Obi Classic wrap belt in a tan/neutral and this one is smaller top to bottom then the one I already own. The leather is much stiffer and the length of it is longer so you have these stiff pieces of leather sticking out. I prefer the thicker front on my original and the consistency/quality of the leather. Should have sent it back but I was hoping it would soften up after a few uses but, it has not. I think this photo looks closer to the one I have in tan regarding thickness and softness. Not thrilled.I already have this belt in black. The leather is very nice and the ties not too stiff to tie and lie properly (not sticking out). I am short-waisted and do not have small waist, but this style of belt can be worn lower than my natural waist so it works well especially when it blends with what I am wearing. It is too hot currently to wear closer fitting items, but I look forward to Fall and Winter to wear my new belt when I go out.The belt is very stylish and cute. I love the versatility. However, I took a star off for price (this belt should cost no more the $40) and another off for quality (the outside seams of the belt are glued and I fear the glue will degrade over time and come undone). The leather is on the stiff side so the ends don't always want to cooperate.Not worth the money. I will keep it because it was a gift, but for my own money I consider it too expensive for what you get. The material is lovely, a nice soft leather, but it also doesn't hold its shape. There are some fancy ways to tie it, but I found them difficult and often rippled the fabric of whatever I was wearing it with. Just okay.Like others, I wish it was finished on the underside of the ends. Incredibly versatile.This belt is nicely made with quality leather. I would recommend!Color not as expected and narrower than expected.
