I bought several missionary belts. I love them... as long as they work. Unfortunately, every strap I have from them eventually fails, usually right after the one year warranty expires. I only use from regular wear. After my first belt snapped from them a year later, I bought two more hoping that another one swapping between them would extend the life of both. Unfortunately, both new ones broke immediately after a year and a month apart. It's supernatural. If you don't mind wearing an expensive fancy belt for a year, buy one. Otherwise save the dough.
