Alligator in brushed nubuck finish.

Alligator belly (stomach) has no small dot in the scales. An "antenna".

Crocodile belly (stomach) small dot in each scale indicates genuine leather. Glossy leather is made with friction and a agate stone.

The back side of the crocodile is called Hornback.

Crocodile or alligator Hornback belts are jeans belts in either 38 or 40 mm width.

One-piece wild Alligator can be ordered in whatever color you want. Here are some glossy ones.

Caiman Crocodile has more cartilage than crocodile and alligator - stiffer, more "breakable". You often see the pattern on women’s bags of somewhat lower quality. The best use for belts is leather from the flank. Even on a large animal, the flank is too short, so a belt like this has to be joined.

The belts look rougher.
