Sometimes in life, simple things happen. I always wore a leather belt and didn't even know such a thing existed. I hesitated but took the risk. I kick myself for not doing this sooner. I kept having to over tighten the leather strap and it hurt and sagged, not to mention it was too loose and my pants kept falling down. As a result, they are constantly trying to find a middle ground and hit new holes. Also, the skin is stretched so it never felt right. This harness solves all the problems related to its strong tension but also when leaning or sitting. I've never felt my pants fall down and they adjust easily. I will never buy another belt again.
