I can't vouch for the durability as I only wear it on rare occasions. I can't say it's that comfortable because the description says it should be stretchy, but it actually isn't that much. The buckle is stiff and the "lugs" of the buckle that go through the grommets appear to be one piece of metal and not separate so there is no "play" in them like my double grommet leather belt , which he is to replace.

If you want the "lounge" to be a few sizes too long, otherwise you'll basically stuff yourself. positive feedback. Unfortunately, seeing NY as more positive than it is just isn't pleasant enough. The reason I didn't return it after wearing it the first time is because it holds my pants like the belt is supposed to, so it works adequately in that most important respect.
