I bought this strap as a gift for someone. He loved it. It was downright hilarious when he put it on and couldn't open it to take off his pants. I was laughing for a good 30 minutes watching him struggle to take it off until I had the brilliant idea to watch some YouTube videos about the belt. The problem was that the latch was stuck. After 45 minutes of watching him try to unbuckle his belt by mimicking what he saw on the video and I laughed, he was finally free. Fast forward to now, a month and a half later, the latch to lock the buckle no longer works. I give the belt 2 stars because it made me laugh.
