I  wear Patent leather only for the last 14 years. The bigger issue is staying slim enough (as I get older) so people can see it...lol. itb is a police issue and very sturdy. And they always look clean and crisp.

I own both types, but prefer the full grain. I wear whatever our crew decides to wear on game day.

The trend in the pro ranks seems to be moving away from patent leather belts. I'm guessing since the move away from patent leather plate shoes is more or less complete, it seems only a natural consequence that the belts will eventually follow. I don't believe most people/fans actually notice. It's usually umpires that spot things like this.

Bottom line: wear whatever you like, as long as you look neat and presentable.
