This belt does what it is advertised to do. I bought it for pull-on pants without belt loops which tend to slide down my hips. The rubber on the inside grips the material well & keeps the pants at my waist. I've worn it with jeans & it flattens the button closure.  Because there is no metal you don't have to take it off going through TSA at the airport. It works for me but I wear a size 8 & I've adjusted the belt all the way out. It's very stretchy so maybe it would work for a larger person as well.
