A garment belt and method of making it. The belt has a first end portion at which a buckle is mounted and a second end portion for engagement with the buckle when the belt is worn. The belt formed of a blank or elongated strap of a first flexible material, e.g., a relatively low-cost but aesthetically and tactily-pleasing material such as a high quality vinyl. The strap includes outer surface providing that aesthetically pleasing appearance, and an inner surface. A central longitudinal axis form a fold line and extends the length of the strap. A pair of strips of leather are fixedly secured, e.g., adhesively bonded, onto the inner surface of said elongated strap and they extend parallel to and equidistantly spaced from each other on opposite sides of the fold line. One of the pair of strips has a recess, e.g., a transversely extending groove or a circular depression, located therein adjacent the first end portion of the belt. The other of the pair of strips has a projection extending therefrom located adjacent the first end portion of the belt and opposite to the recess. The projection, is shaped to mate with and be received in the recess. The, blank or strap is arranged to be folded over itself along the central longitudinally extending fold line, with the two leather strips confronting and abutting each other, and with the projection of one strip being received in the recess of the other so that the marginal edges of the strap are axially aligned. The confronting portions of the strap are adhesively secured to each other to hold the strap together with the leather strips interposed therebetween. The leather strips are of a reduced thickness at the first end portion of the belt to facilitate the folding of the strap thereat to mount the belt's buckle.
