This belt is exactly what I was looking for. Brown is perfect with navy or charcoal pants, and the gunmetal buckle looks classy. Seems to be of good quality and should last a while as it shouldn't bend or warp like other straps with traditional buckles. It just slips through. The only thing I see that breaks over time is a needle pushing into a hole in the skin, which can loosen the skin over time and cause that size to stop working. Although the price doesn't bite!
