Update: I still need a strap so I ordered another one in a larger size. This one fits but 2 days after he started wearing it as a trucker sits most of the day it fell apart! The reviews that say this are real reviews. It looked good but didn't appear to be real leather. At 51 I've never had a belt like this! satisfied. After a full week of wearing it shows zero wear and tear. It costs a bit more but I'd rather buy and pay once than buy the cheapest junk that won't last two days! Don't cry, the Dickies belt looks and feels great and strong! :) Ordered slightly longer than expected and thought I could make it tighter, but it ended up being about 6 inches shorter than advertised. I couldn't even score it on the loosest hole. The photos look great but they must be measured using a strange system because that is not what they advertised in inches! Too bad it was a nice belt and I had high hopes for it.
