Overall I am very happy with this belt. I work outdoors and needed something that was softer than a leather belt yet would hold up and this belt still does the job perfectly. A little loose, but a little glue held them in place with no problems. Also, based on other reviews, I bought a size larger than my usual size and it fits perfectly. I gave this five stars - is this the perfect belt? nope But is it better than expected for a sub $10 belt? Absolutely!
