Haiya TS. Almost all the belt brands selling outside are using cheap leather. Yes CHEAP LEATHER. It is real leather, but it is cheap.

The peeling belt you have is because it is sprayed with a thick layer of PU coating to make it look lit it is high quality. This is done to deceive people into believing that it is fine grain leather. But it is in fact low quality coarse leather. It is also done in shoes and wallets.

And it is so hard to find which belt is really made with good quality REAL LEATHER inside and outside.

I also think it is very stupid to pay RM200 for belt. If real leather cost RM400-700 it does not make sense to buy because it definitely comes from a brand name.

So like most people, go buy under RM 50 PU belt. After 1 year or more and it starts to get out of shape or peeling, then buy another. Unless you are buying the belt from a leather only produce shop, the chances of getting coated leather is rare.

Stop putting trust in RM150-200 belts just because it should be real leather. But it isn't. It is PU coated leather. Its the same with AI enhanced auntie doing tik tok. Its just fake over low quality real life person.

Also if you think i'm shitting on people, you know those RM200-500 Nike leather sneakers people buy? It is also loose grain leather sprayed with PU.
