I ordered and received a red/white panel belt. The quality is great and ordered the 1.75 inch wide belt in soft cloth because it will be worn every class. This belt was everything it was described in their catalog. It is hand made and made in the U.S.A. Thank you for the belt. I would recommend anyone wanting a quality belt by Kataaro. Also customer service is great. Thanks ladies.

I ordered a 5 inch red/white panel belt last year with Black embroidery. Incredible quality and certainly wouldn't go anywhere else now for belts.

This is the finest belt I've had around my waist! When I started ordering from here years ago I didn't realize how customizable the belts were. I wanted the 5-inch paneled belt but I did not want red and white, I wanted black and red and I wanted them to make the furthest panels black and they were able to do all of this and this belt is a work of art! I couldn't be happier with my purchase and will wear this belt with absolute pride. Thank you yet again Kataaro for blowing my mind with your amazing craftsmanship!
