Is anyone else constantly seeing adverts for revolutionary belt design which is basically like a big cable tie, but a belt you can wear around your waist?

They are constantly pushing against the old technology of holes in belts, which stretch and warp etc..

I just find the whole thing completely bizarre, because I've been wearing a belt where I can adjust it to the millimeter any way I want, and it does not have the cable tie notches like these new revolutionary belt designs have..

I mean, are people really buying into this literally and figuratively?! . Or people really that stupid and ignorant?! Or I am missing something here?!

I mean something already exists which is way better and being around for at least two get decades that I know of... The new belt design is certainly nothing new and is actually worse than the one I am already wearing.

I've never even heard of such a thing. Guess I need to get out more? :lol:

I will take a picture of mine later..

Huh. Well, I guess it looks okay.

Dunno...kinda like my traditional leather belt. :)

My belt can adjust and doesn't need the "zip tie" nonsense either.. I've had this belt for like 2 decades.. it already does away with the "traditional holes"..

Maybe I should bulk buy them and call them ultra revolutionary :lol:

I had something like that too when i was young. A refitted belt my dad got from the army when he was in the French Navy. Or something like that.
