"This belt is pretty great! I like the width - it doesn't scrunch or ride up. The length adjusts to the perfect size for me, a plus sized woman who wears pants and shorts slightly down on my hips (due to a very short waist). I especially like the closure. I tried other "no show" belts with "flat" plastic buckles, but they were not flat. This one is perfectly flat. The closure piece is smooth metal without any sharp edges, and the elastic seems to be good quality. I haven't worn it yet except to try it on and walk around/sit/bend over, but it passed all three of those tests with flying colors. I recommend this for men AND for plus sized women!"
