This is a very attractive belt, and well made, but it does stretch ("Expands approximately 1" without extra tabs or attachments".)  I recommend buying this one size smaller than you normally would (e.g. if you normally buy a 38, get a 36) as the stretchiness does tend to make it a bit big.  Other than that, after wearing it almost every day for a few months I have no complaints, the belt shows no signs of wear and is comfortable.
