Belt was shorter than other A2 belts I have by 3 inches. Also it showed the label having different countries flags on it and the label was just plain black. The black patch where you place stripes has purple stitching which you cant see in the picture when ordering. I took a black marker to the stitching because it was very unappealing. The belt material itself is soft and I like it, I just wish it was the same size as other A2 belts.
