This belt is a gift to myself, I have been wearing this belt every day for three months, this belt is still holding up. Not a single chip or scratch on the clasp. The belt itself does not tear or show signs of wear as it did when it was new. If you ask me how I feel I will tell you that it is very easy to use. The design is very beautiful, especially the automatic ratchet knob, you can adjust any position at any time, can be used for commuting to work or at home.
