My latest belt is in the link below. Very stiff and has flat no buckle attachment with the ghook and strap. Good adjustment range as the ghook can go in different loops (course adj.) and the strap thru the ghook to a velcro pad is the fine adjustment. It took me a couple of days to get the hang of using it. Quality built and I think that is evident to some degree in the pictures, but not so clear on installation/setup and using. I really bought on faith wanting something different which it is. I fumbled the ball on the size I ordered, but that was a senior moment I owned which I was able to return for exchange postage on my dime. They are very clear about how to measure and exchange as long as not special order.
Something to look at if you are willing to try something different.
