This belt design is a great idea. The belts come longer than expected, but listed belt sizes are not much to go by. That being said I needed to cut the belt which was easy. The ability to adjust your belt EXACTLY to the tightness you want is great. I can also see where this belt will wear much longer because NO holes to weaken the belt. The release latch took some getting use to, but after the learning curve it is fine. Highly Recommend.
