I didn't pay attention to the reviews and ordered according to the specified size grid. I have a 30 waist so originally ordered a 32 with a black and khaki belt. Unsurprisingly, both straps were too short and didn't extend beyond the second hole. I subsequently ordered the same straps in size 34 and they fit as expected; 3rd hole. The straps appear to be of good quality; Seams, finishes, hardware (buckle), etc. I'm happy with my purchase. I try to buy clothes and accessories that are somehow unique and fit my needs.
