I seem to wear a lot of belts (I wear one every day). So I try to take as much as possible with me. After all, there's no reason to spend a fortune on a belt that only lasts a few months before looking battered and tattered. This is a regular black dress belt that fits exactly as it should. It's thinner, so if you like wide straps, look elsewhere. Also, it has a very pointed edge. And there's a noticeable shine, so you won't want to go that route if you prefer a matte look. But if you just want a cheap men's belt that will hold up your pants, this is a great option. And when it wears out after a few months (since it's not the highest quality material), there's no shame in throwing it away.
