Too small. I ordered a belt up to 42" in length and I usually wear 38" pants. The belt does not fit around my waist without stretching. That means I can't wear it around my waist without undue tension, which basically means it's useless. I saw that some people didn't like the buckle but decided I wanted to see for myself. Now that I've seen it, I have to agree: it's not for me. One of the things I love about the fully adjustable straps is that I can make small adjustments throughout the day depending on how high I want my pants to go or if I've just eaten a big meal. This buckle is not finely adjustable. Buckling and unbuckling is nothing other than "stagingβ. There is a lot to love about this belt. It's lightweight, plastic (good for airports and hiking) and stretchy. If it was true to size and had a new buckle, it would probably be my favorite belt.
