Was expecting this to be a little thicker nylon, but I guess for the price, what can you say? It does lay flatter agains my stirrup leathers than any of the thicker ones I've had & I do like that. You'll probably need to burn more holes in it if you like to use the buckle on your cinch instead of tying a knot, but that's not a problem for me. Now to see how long it lasts...
