I've been looking for a belt that I can use on shorts without tucking in my shirt so I don't feel on the waist. Most belts have a big metal buckle that you can always feel, so I tried that and it worked. I'm not particularly keen on how it looks - it's more of a cargo sling with a plastic buckle. The picture shows a different buckle than the one I received. Mine is simpler and can be found on a dog collar or leash. But it has a logo on it and there are some logos on the elastic so it's cool but still not what I would call trendy. Not for $40. But it does the trick and I like the way it feels, so I'll leave it.
