I am a beekeeper and need a strap to attach my tool belt. Since I use it as a work belt, the following comments do not affect my use negatively. Just skip these cons if they are important to another buyer. Firstly the straps are of good quality and I expect them to last for many years. The buckle is a bit trickier: 1) you need to thread the strap through all the loops before adding the opposite latch every time you put the belt on or off, as the latch is too wide to go through the belt loops, 2) trimming on the clasp and other metal parts, easy to wash off, 3) be prepared to lose the little elastic that holds the extra length in place. it is not attached to the belt.
