This belt has a number of problems starting with the teeth held in the lugs being very soft and not staying in place. The small teeth bend and cling to clothing, are sharp and cut when you pull out the belt, and even when you bend back, they don't stay in place. Some have already broken off because the metal is so soft. Problem number two is the color, it washes off quickly. The matrix has a deep surface, so anything that rubs against the belt, such as For example, a regular belt buckle with a clasp it can replace will basically erase the color in some places. I've worn a studded belt for over 20 years and this is one of the worst I've ever had. :(
