This belt is more durable than I would imagine given the price. I wear both to work and change them depending on the color of my pants. Looks very professional. I had some issues with the buckle release but I quickly got used to the way it fastened. Thanks to the design and stitching, the belt does not fold from my favorite handles when I press it 12 hours a day. Very strong construction. I can't get enough of these belts.
