I've read several descriptions that say the belt is 1 1/4 inches wide. What I didn't do was go through the photos to find ONE picture that was a different size, 1 1/8". So it's too narrow for my liking and doesn't fit my 1 1/4" buckle . Ratchet buckles, that has to be taken into account. The buckle I had was for a thicker belt, so this belt is advanced and locked with a lock, but only if there is enough tension left on the belt, otherwise there is enough room inside the belt buckle to slip out of the locking teeth. I'm giving 2 stars because the tape seems well made but the ambiguous message is deceiving. I would go back but I cut it off before figuring out all the issues.
