Alligator products are extremely expensive and time consuming to produce; therefore very few retailers will stock genuine American Alligator Caiman Crocodilus Chiapasius products. Due to economic and availability issues, the public has no access to these luxurious, high-quality, hand-crafted, all-American Alligator Caiman Crocodilus Chiapasius products.
A top quality alligator belt or wallet can be a source of pride every day, and serve you well for a decade or more. In addition to their elegant look and feel, accessories made from alligator and crocodile offer functionality, durability and prestige well beyond similar items in common leather. For these reasons, alligator and crocodile items make excellent, long-remembered gifts.
It is important to exercise some care in selecting alligator and crocodile accessories, don't be discouraged from buying a beautiful gift for someone special, including you. While there is essentially only one species of alligator ( the "American Alligator" or " alligator mississippiensis"), there are a dozen species of crocodiles, in varied shapes and sizes found all over the world. The trade in alligator and all species of crocodile is regulated by CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species).
Alligator and crocodile leathers are similar in several ways, including their classic great looks, relative exclusivity and their ability to look great thru many years of service. However, based upon the body section of the donor animal, and the tanning and finishing processes utilized, the value and quality of the leather can vary widely. In selecting an accessory made from alligator or crocodile, it is far more important to consider the quality (scale pattern, softness, and finish) of the leather, rather than the species of the animal.
Generally speaking, (there are a number of variables discussed later), alligator skin is much nicer, with more symmetrical scale patterns, with thicker and softer skin, and with a smoother and more three-dimensional feel than the typical crocodile skin. Though relatively rare, top quality skins from the Nile crocodile and Australian Saltwater Crocodile are the equal, and in some ways better, than the best alligator. Caiman is the most common type of crocodile leather. The caiman can often be identified by small pits in their scales; these pits are far more common in caiman relative to other crocodiles, and are non-existent in genuine alligator.
