I bought the black and navy blue belts on 2/11/19 and came back today 2/14/21 to buy the brown color as the belts have held up well last 2 years. I have a small waist compared to my hips and because of this I had to adjust all my pants to fit my waist. However, I started working from home 2.5 years ago and it no longer made economic sense to sew all my pants if no one sees them most of the time. Also, this belt helps me with my weight loss, keeps my pants from ripping in the back, and keeps tucked-in shirts from riding up. This is exactly the product I needed at an incredible price! If this belt gets too tatty to wear I will definitely buy it again. Hell, even if I had to buy a new one every year for this functionality and price, I definitely would.
