This was my first ratchet harness and I'm happy to say that once I cut it to my waist and fastened the buckle everything was set. It was so incredibly handy to be able to adjust the belt on the fly and make it tighter or looser if I want, and the leather and buckle will last a long time because I don't bend it or bump into anything when I'm wearing it this belt How do I wear it with clothes? It really is worth the money and if you are looking to give it as a gift I can say that it comes in a lovely little black box that is neatly packaged and would suit anyone you can think of.
