This is a strong, thick and well made men's belt. It can almost be too thick unless that's what you're looking for. I am very happy with this item. It fits into the loops of my Carhart brand pants and also holds my Bianchi holsters with a snug fit on the holster loops. This strap can also serve as a versatile strap that's heavy enough to carry tools and the like. As a belt in men's trousers, I find it a bit thick, but that depends on the wearer's taste and of course also on the belt loops of the trousers chosen.
