Lightweight yet durable, 1.5" wide, works great with hiking shorts and pants, buckle works better than expected, locks belt securely in place, easy enough to adjust length, many colors to choose from. Fair price. And just a note: I also have a metal ratchet buckle with no holes which is heavier which is good for jeans but I prefer the belt I'm reviewing here for shorts. Might end up liking it for jeans too. When the lighter works, it usually wins.
