Stretch Belt Review

PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW BEFORE BUYING THIS BELT! I bought a tan and a black belt on the same order, both of them are size MEDIUM. The black belt is 6" longer than the tan belt. First of all, the belts stretch very little. If I pull the ends apart as hard as I can, I might get 1" stretch. The tan belt length, 36", measures from the end of the belt tab to the end of the metal buckle. So, please add an additional inch for the buckle plus a several inches for the overlap under the belt loop to your desired length for the tan belt. The black belt is 42" long and is a little too long. Next, the belts are tightly woven & there is no hole in the belts to press the prong through making it difficult to buckle. Lastly, the thick weave of the belts are not slimming at the waistline. In conclusion, if you can figure out what size belt to order for what color & you get the belt large enough & don't care that they doesn't stretch, you would probably be happy with this belt. I feel that the "Elastic stretch" advertising is deceptive & am trying to return the belts without paying the postage either way. The seller has not responded as yet.
