I purchased this belt to avoid the very visible bulge that is clearly seen under certain shirts due to belt buckles.  This belt did exactly that; visually you cannot even see the belt underneath shirts.  It is adjustable, so you can lengthen or shorten as needed to get the right hold/fit.  I have found this belt does a better job than my regular belts at holding my pants in place.  That said, while this is a functional belt, it is not an attractive belt.  It is basically a thick piece of black elastic with a plastic clip buckle & a plastic adjuster.  You would only wear this under things, & not over where people could see it.  Additionally, the length I typically adjust to places the adjuster in the center of my back.  This can cause some mild discomfort when leaning back against things, as hard plastic is being pushed into bone instead of fleshy bits.  However, that is just where it happens to fall on me.  For what you get, the price is a bit high, but it does get the job done.
