Mizuno Long Classic Belt

Well made, Mizuno product. Exactly as described, quick delivery

Everything about the belt is great except there only the 50” and 40” got the 40” and drilled holes in it to make it fit me. Couldn’t figure out how to take buckle off, cut the belt and reattach.

Belt is ok. It looks shiny and fancy. My waist is about 38" so I knew it would be too long. Once cut to size, the exposed edge is no longer easy to pass through baseball pants loops and tunnels. The edge of the belt wants to grab the pant material and not slide. It's a little annoying and I have to loop the belt before putting on pants. The "leather" is also a little sticky so trying to cinch the belt down to the appropriate hole is also not very smooth. I prefer my older Adams leather belts. They were getting beat up from sliding; should have just got the same replacement.

I wear a size 38/40 jeans and this belt was definitely the right size. I did cut it down but knew that buying the size 40 inch belt would not work, just from reading other reviews. I had been searching for a belt that was not stretchy and also covered the buckle as I am allergic to nickel (which most buckles are made out of). This belt is just like a leather belt you wear for work, so don't expect it to stretch.

I decided to make the switch to leather from elastic this past season. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner. It is a night and day difference. My uniform doesn't become untucked, my pants stay exactly where they are, and the belt never loosens up as the day goes on. This was definitely long but I have a 36" waist and was able to cut down to a perfect fit. If you haven't gotten leather yet, do it now.
