I had one of these previously that I damaged by leaving it on the floor. Basically something squished it and held it in a bad position for a long time. I bought another one because I really like the first one but I forgot to indicate the size and it was a little too big. Also my fault. The belt itself is nice. I of course liked it better when it was the right size. There might be better belts out there but I wouldn't know. Not really a belt connoisseur. But it does the job.
