maikunMens & Womens Canvas Belt with Black D-ring 1 1/2" Wide Extra Long Solid Color

Is the black ring and end painted black and do they subsequently wear off after or scratch off use?

what is the length of the 31-34" and the 36-39" belts?

In the description it says the company is replacing the metal end with a leather. Will the leather be black or brown?

If i wear size 40 jeans, is the 40-43 belt the best choice, or one size bigger?
