this item if ordered in correct size will go around you 11/2 times..

I purchased the xxl (48-52) and was way to small even with the stretch which made it really tight. They refunded me and I purchased the next size up, (52-56). It was only 1 1/2 inches longer than the xxl. The stretch gave me a few more inches so I could use it without it being really tight. But it is still tight. If I hadn’t already been a given a refund for the first one, I would have returned this one as well. I liked the durability and looks. The navy is almost a black, which would be alright with black pants or slacks, but I would have preferred more blue in it. I bought them for my summer blue shorts. They don’t go well with them.

The color is not really kahki and doesn't go well with either regular kakhi or light (stone) kakhi. The elastic doesn't seem strong and I suspect it will deteriorate fairly quickly. The leather on the buckle is not as attractive as it was in the picture on the website.

Second order, same as first, too short& miss marked.

The belt arrived on time. Unfortunately, it was two sizes too small.

Way too much stretch and oversized for their measurement. I've been trying many of these stretch belt and sent many back to Amazon (thank goodness for their generous return policy). This one looked nice but the stretch was too loose. The best belt on the market is by Fairwin, THAT'S THE ONE TO BUY. The sizing is accurate and stretch is tight. I have 4 of them THE BEST DON'T WASTE TIME WITYHN THE OTHERS
