Yep, the two best things about these sporran belts, to my mind, are that they are infinitely adjustable (as opposed to those with a buckle, at which point you must hope that your prefered length falls at one of the holes, and not in between two) and that they can be easily adjusted while wearing the belt (to account for the leather stretching during the day and whatnot). I have to say that (now that I'm kilted again) I use this belt with my everyday black sporran, as well as with Pepe le Sporran.
