I have other velcro like this that are 40 years old and still going strong. This belt is a little less than 1/4" wide but just as well made. I use them on jeans, khakis, and sometimes dress pants. I'm glad to find a belt that lasts until I die and then someone else can wear for years.Remember to take a belt two inches wider than your waist.If you wear 36 get 38.The price is also very fair for the quality.
