## Simple Tricks To Find The Genuine Alligator Leather Belts
 
**Check The Label:**

Even though it seems the plainest and obvious thing to check the authenticity of leather, most of us forget to check this most obvious thing. Sometimes customers fall prey to the shine and synthetic colors of the products and forget to check if the belts are labeled as “100 % Leather” or not. Around the market, the authentic leathers are marked with labels and it will help you to choose the correct product.

 **Feel The Leather:**
 
The next trick is the touch and feels test which will help you to cross-check the Alligator leather product. Alligators are raised and grown in wild conditions. So the tough and rough texture of the leather itself is a test for authenticity.

**Smell The Leather:**
    
As swamps and marshes lakes are the habitats of the Alligator, it is really hard to get rid of that smell from the real Alligator leather. If the leather belt doesn’t have any smell, then probably it is fake or synthetic leather. Give a good smell to the belt and check if it is not chemically processed in the tannery.

**Look For Shine And Glow:**

It might be confusing to know if the product is too shiny and too dull concerning its natural tone and texture. But to make the belts more sellable, many tanneries try to overload the color and texture of the belts which makes it easy to identify from the original Alligator skin belt.

**Check The Size And Pattern Of Leather:**

 A genuine Alligator skin leather will have big or small scales which helps us to know if the skin used is real or synthetic.

**Try To Spot The Natural Look:**

 Real Alligator skin belt has calcium deposits which makes the leather rigid and versatile. Look out for the solid leather which is top class than the substandard synthetic and weak leather.

Scientific advances have made it difficult to spot the difference between real and fake Alligator leather. It hits hard when you buy a costly belt and it turns out to be fake. So, instead of going through such hustle, just take the expert advice before buying the Alligator skin belt.
