This belt would be perfect if the tongue wasn't sewn on ridiculously askew. Everything else about it is excellent. They are very difficult to find unless the buckle is silver or black. It's kind of an antique brass finish that I really like. I wear size 32 jeans and size 32/34 is perfect for me. With a comfortable elastic tension, the end of the strap is about two inches from the loop on the strap, just the way I like it. I don't need it to reach the first buttonhole of my pants. I wanted more elastics in other colors but I think I'll keep looking.
