My teenage son wanted an IV to deal with a seizure. I bought the belt as a birthday gift as that's what he wanted the most. I thought it would be a flashy accessory but the quality of the belt and the attention to detail in the packaging speak for themselves. I liked it so much that I am going to buy another color for Christmas. The only thing is that it is a bit small to wear on the hip, it was ideally worn at the waist, but if you want to wear it as a belt with a pair of jeans then you can increase the size. Definitely a great purchase and can be worn by any gender. I'll post the suit/outfit once he wears it.
