This belt is very inexpensive compared to others. It fits exactly as stated. It doesn't spread at all. I wear it almost every day. things I didn't like. First I use a key ring for my badges and a small D-ring. If you are normal size it will not work. Second, the snap-on closure technique, while great, still lacks the shine as it's difficult to detach your pants from another pair. When removing, they get caught in the belt loops. Finally, there is a small attachment that comes with another key ring. It's just a hassle to remember to put your belt on and off when you need to take your belt off/on. I just don't. If they could implement something like this that doesn't interfere with the loops or the belt coming out of the pants, that would be a great cosmetic change.
