If you walk through metal detectors and want to keep your pants tight

If you're like me and regularly pass metal detectors and security checks, but den If you want to avoid the hassle of removing your belt, this is your answer.For years I have been stopped at sporting events, concert halls, amusement parks, etc. because my normal sized belt buckle "beeped" on a metal detector. I pointed to the belt buckle and they confirmed it either holding a stick or waving at me. Now you might be thinking "why don't you just take off your belt"? Who wants to go through that when there are dozens, if not hundreds or thousands of people behind you? You have emptied your pockets, put down your watch, but the things that si e put it in your pocket and then handle it, the belt is an eyesore. Why bother with it at all? You don't have to, it's your new belt. It holds your pants. Doesn't slip, the clasp holds tight. Speaking of the buckle, I was skeptical at first but to be honest this thing is nice and durable. I'm between sizes of these straps so I had to cut off a significant portion, you simply use the weave of the strap to line yours with scissors and trim off the excess leaving a bit of excess (about a quarter to a half Customs service). ) to join the end. It takes a lighter or candle and a bit of skill to melt the end, but if you keep the strap moving you can line it up with the weave fairly easily. I used nail polish to smooth out the melted area, but this isn't necessary depending on how good you are with the lighter. Update: 9/12/21 Still my favorite belt. The black has faded over the years but I still haven't opened a replacement so yes.
