LionVII Men's Elastic Stretch Belts for Men with No Metal Plastic Buckle for Work Sports, Easy Trim to Fit 27-46" Waist

This is a great belt for wearing if your one of those cats that goes alot to airports or court buildings which require you to be either be scanned for metal objects by a security wand, or by walking thru a large metal scanner port.For anyone that knows, its a PAIN when your metal buckle gets a beep and sometimes the security wants you to take the belt off for re-scanning or to lift shirt up to wand the item.You would figure that such security items could detect the mass of metal of a gun or weapon, but no, its just a tiny piece of metal smaller than either, (the metal buckle I mean) and security doesn't seem to care if you have a bulging belly or your pants fall off while passing thru the metal scanner port. Just completely embarrassing!BUT LO AND BEHOLD! the non metal buckle with a flexible belt that really holds up your pants and is comfortable to wear! And I mean, it really holds your pants up. Its not super loose and the tightness doesn't choke your waist so bad. Squatting down or bending over allows it to flex a bit but still keeping good tension.If your belt is over long, simply cut to length, and use a lighter to melt the end which holds the plastic buckle so the belt wont fray and unravel itself over time.

Light WeightComfortableSturdyAlmost Disappears Under ShirtsI can't speak to the durability much as I have only been using this belt a couple days, but I wanted to try the belt before committing to multiple colors... I cut the belt to fit and melted the cut end to prevent fraying, and I also have to say that the plastic buckle makes this belt insanely comfortable and light weight... I was a little concerned that would make it feel cheap, but as long as it lasts this may be my new favorite belt. I have had similar belts with nice metal buckles, and it always seems there is some component that pinches skin, catches hair, or does something uncomfortable (if you aren't careful while active), but none of that with this belt. I am 5'9" and pretty lean (about 140lbs), if that's helpful in any way.

I've bought a few of these nylon webbing belts with similar clamping plastic buckles in the past; so I'm familiar with them. I've used them for everyday wear and for use with holsters for firearm training. Here stiffness is important. I found that for casual wear and at work they proved too stiff and could be uncomfortable, especially sitting down. Also, I've tried other "elastic" belts before but found them to be too stretchy and didn't provide much support.Therefore I gave this one a try. I must say that I'm pleased. Its firm enough to hold my pants firmly around my waist. I wouldn't use it for firearm training, but it holds my phone holster as good as the rigid belts. This 1.5 inch belt has just the right mix of firmness and stretch. It has some "give" when you sit down and you don't have to keep adjusting the buckle every time you stand up or sit down. It remains to be seen how it holds up over time.The plastic buckle work well, is easy to adjust and is not too bulky. It does say YKK on the backside and seems of good quality. Its easy to remove the belt from the buckle to trim it, so you don't have to trim the tail end.So, why did I give it 4 and not 5 stars. My one gripe is the end tip that's sewn on, I assume to stop the tail end from fraying, makes it hard to thread through the pants loops. The sewn on piece of leatherette is a bit wider than the belt and changes the thickness of the webbing from 0.130" to 0.208". Fishing the belt through the loops around your waist can be tricky. After I have the belt on and the buckle secure its impossible to feed the tail end into the first loop again to keep it in place. The belt does come with an elastic keeper to hold down the tail end, but in my experience the elastic piece eventually gets lost. I did trim the edges of the end piece with a scissors as much as I could without upsetting the stitching and it worked a little better. I've tried in on a few different pants with the same outcome.The other (non elastic) nylon belts that I bought with the same buckle didn't have the end piece so it was easy to feed the belt onto the pants loops. Eventually I'll get used to this, but it does bother me. I may attempt to just cut the stitching and remove the leatherette, maybe the belt won't fray or I can sear it with a flame. I like the belt, I'd like it to work. We'll see.

Easy trim and use at airports too!

Not a fan of the buckle, feels really cheaply made, belt is stretchy though, will probably try to attach it to a better made buckle.

This belt cost me $28. so I expected some kind of quality . The belt itself ( not the buckle ) is strong , takes an awful lot to make it stretch so if your expecting a stretchy belt around your waste for comfort ...thats non exinsistant . Next the buckle , its very cheap and very hard to buckle takes a lot of work .....so if your having a bad day needing to go to the bathroom frequently and drop your drawers , you will quickly become frustrated trying to buckle it back up . Note , the buckle is plastic so all that fumbling will take its toll without a doubt . The belt comes packaged in cheap clear plastic , looks like something you would purchase at the dollar store . This belt is worth no more than $3. at best .

Bought one of these in 2020. It's been my daily work belt since then. No complaints

I was looking for a belt that was adjustable to the perfect length, and stretchable to handle the different positions I put myself in, at work. I read the reviews on this belt, and although I thought it was a little too expensive, I am glad I made the purchase. This belt is perfect for what I need. I have only had it for a month and I hope it holds up after the test of time. It has the best combination of comfort, strength and elasticity. I probably will get another one of these belts if it holds up for a year. I am an aircraft mechanic and I have to move around quite a bit. This is one of the better if not the best work belts I have had so far.

Very comfortable for a bigger guy, I will never wear a leather belt again. Belt is 1.5" so excellent for belt loops or belt accessories I don't like the plastic buckle, it does work but feels low quality ,,, time will tell on the durability of the buckle.

Husband loves his new belt! Has just the right amount of stretch.The buckle is plastic and seems strong, I guess only time will tell.

It's been 3 years of constant use, I'm only getting another one because I want one more colour. Recommended.

I like the amount of stretch and how easy it was to custom size. But this cursed plastic buckle gets on my nerves. Each time I buckle it, the clamp that secures the belt in the buckle re-open itself. Its due to the plastic fabrication. The teeth supposed to dig into the belt fabric to secure the buckle on the belt are made of plastic and dont get into the fabric like metal ones would.

Made of a hard material that digs into the skin, cheap platic belt buckle that is difficult to adjust or lock shut. Barely stretches at all. Dollar store quality for 30$.
