Genuine leather belts include crocodile leather belts, full grain cow leather belts, and split leather belts. Their characteristics are as follows:
Crocodile leather can be called platinum in leather and is known for its luxury and rareness. This is not only because the number of crocodiles is scarce, but also because the growth rate of crocodiles is slow and the cost of breeding is extremely high. The available crocodile skin is limited to the long and narrow part of the abdomen. The beauty of crocodile skin lies in its natural gradual checkered pattern. Although it lacks elasticity, the texture is very strong. There is a saying that as long as the crocodile leather is properly maintained, it will become more shiny and more flexible as it is used. Usually a belt needs to "sacrifice" more than one crocodile to make it, so crocodile leather products have always been extremely expensive in the market.
