They have those. They're called elastic waistbands.

But all seriousness aside, I found a new type of belt that has no annoying buckle. It just sort of cinches back from the front loops. I hate buckles. They give me funny-lookin' marks on me bellie.

That looks like it will try to pull the pants open. Nice figure you have there, BTW...
