I had previously never tried a ratcheting belt before and was wondering if they would be a little gimmicky but I was pleasantly surprised and I think this might be my new favorite solution for everyday use. I love the color of this belt because it's a much lighter brown than what I typically was used to (I always bought those two sided belts from department stores) and it contrasts nicely with blue jeans and matches well with my brown boots.

Cutting the belt to size was really simple using just standard scissors even which surprised me because the belt has so far held up to the task of supporting my pants on my large waist. I also love being able to dial in the tightness much more than a typical belt that just has holes in it and I think the holding points will stand up to time much better than the holes that would get stretched out because these holding points are made up of plastic grooves that is sewn into the back of the belt.
