[REDACTED] As you will read in my original review I really liked this belt and thought it was excellent but I was wrong! In less than a year, the material around the buckle has frayed and is no longer functional. It was only worn minimally, never for work, it wasn't tight at all, it was always worn loose in the 2nd or 3rd hole and I even ordered 2 sizes up based on other reviews. So who knows? It's a shame because I really liked it. [REVISED] [ORIGINAL REVIEW] Great versatile belt to wear with jeans but good enough to wear with pants. It's thicker than a belt for a dress, but it doesn't add bulk. Very slim and none of those reversible straps with a buckle that comes loose if it's too tight and you try to sit down. This is a low profile stationary buckle made from brushed nickel and smooth premium leather for a masculine look. Don't be fooled by the brand, this is nothing more than a 'working' belt, although it seems strong enough. You can wear it on a Saturday night and no one will be able to see the logo on it unless they get close enough and I think if someone gets that close the belt wouldn't be a deal breaker. LoL I love this when traveling because it's the only belt I need to take with me regardless of what I'm wearing. The only downside is that the brown color is very dark. Nearly black. For you 40+ think of a Fonzie jacket. So there isn't much contrast in color. Also, like other reviews, I recommend going 2 pants sizes up (for example, I wear a size 36 in jeans, so I ordered a 40 belt and I'm glad I did). For me none of these issues were a deal breaker other than it's a great product that appears to be made from quality materials and I highly recommend it.
