My belts tend to start peeling rather fast. I even bought a Polo belt from Parkson, cost nearly rm200, and that shit started peeling after a week.
Please help. I just want something that can last years.
Mainly for office wear

I don't know what material was made for belts that are used for PLKN (definitely not leather), but I have been using it for the past 10 years (and still using it now) and didn't bother buying any other belts

Your belts that peeled are probably veneer leather/bonded leather. Some such belts may even just consist of a cardboard core with thin leather bonded to it.
Belts that last are made of FULL GRAIN leather. I have such a belt from Kickers bought in 2009, and it's still good. Unfortunately I believe it's not suitable for dress pants, which require a thinner more genteel style.

Genuine as in the whole belt is made of full leather, not composite synthetic not veneered over or ‘balut outer’ type. I have 2 anvil hide leather belts, way over 15-20 years still in good condition.
