If you need a belt to hold up your pants, get something other than this item. Unless, of course, you want to stop every few steps to tighten your belt. If it seems to you that it won't stay in place, you're right. It loosens a fraction of an inch every time you twist and turn. After a short time, the tail no longer curls up on its own, but simply detaches itself. And yes, I still have a lot of cock on my belt to supposedly keep that from happening. I will try to bring back this stupidity.
