This is the best, most comfortable and well-designed belt I have ever owned.
I just received this belt but I'm so impressed with it that I just had to post a review right away. (I'll update this review if my opinion changes over time.)I just can't get over how comfortable and well-designed this belt is. But, first, apparently some people have complained that they can't get the buck through their belt loops. If so, their simply doing things wrong. You leave the two halves of the buckle connected and then run the other end through your pants loops and then stick the end in the slot of the end that isn't connected permanently to the belt, pull it snug and then snap the clamp in place. Once you have it adjusted properly, you can undo the belt instantly but pressing the buckle release. Then just snap it back together when you're done. It's incredibly fast.But here's the thing that really has me loving this belt. It's stretchy so it always retains whatever tightness you set no matter what you're doing - sitting down, etc. The stretchiness is firm so it's never too loose. To get an idea of how stretchy it is, if you grab the buckle and pull it forward, you can pull the buckle 5 or 6 inches from your stomach. But, again, it's the perfect stretchiness so it will never be too loose. You set the firmness when you pull the belt tightness to your liking and then close the buckle clamp.My waist is about 36 to 38 inches (I've been losing weight recently and haven't measured it but, no matter what weight I am, I stay within that range. So I ordered the medium length belt. That leaves about 10 to 11" of extra belt which is OK and it can be simply slid into belt loops or the sliding retainer that comes on the belt that some people may miss because it blends in with the belt. Or, you can simply cut the excess belt off and seal the ends with heat. I'm probably just gong to leave mine as is but I am so happy with this belt that I ordered a small one which, according to the product description, will still leave 6 or 7 inches of extra belt. So, just know that the belts are longer than necessary but it's not a problem. Measure your waste and compare it to the lengths listed in the product description. My medium belt would probably easily fit someone with a, say, 44" waist.As long as you leave the belt on your pants, you only have to release the buckle halves and snap them back together. Again, it's absolutely no problem to reconnect them because of the firm stretchiness of the belt material. But when removing the belt from pants or putting it on another pair of pants, you have to release the clamp, slide the belt out of the right have of the clamp and remove the belt or reverse that process when putting the belt on another pair of pants. But it's so fast and easy that it's hardly worth mentioning. The point is, once it's on your pants, you can release the belt instantly. In fact, it's faster than a traditional belt with holes. Which brings up another great benefit of this belt. That is, that there are no holes so adjustment is infinite. You'll never wish there was a hole between two existing holes and you'll never have to make new holes yourself.I'm not and wasn't obese by any means but I have a stomach like most guys (that's going down with exercise and diet) but a problem I've had for a couple years is that my pants would want to fall down, especially if I bent down. My belt wanted to slip "down hill." I see at least one other reviewer who was much heavier than me complained about the same thing and he says this belt completely eliminated that problem. Although I haven't had the belt long enough to say if it solved my problem, I have absolutely no doubt that it does due to the stretchiness of the belt. No matter how you move, the tension of the belt remains the same. That makes it the most comfortable belt I've ever owned by far.This review probably sounds like an ad but it's not. I'm just so happy with the design of this belt that I had to share my initial experiences with it. The only thing I would suggest to anyone ordering this belt is that you will probably want to order one smaller than the listing recommends. Just measure your waste and compare it to the length of the belt listed. If available, you should probably order a belt that's 4 or 5 inches longer than your waist measurement. But, if the one you order is too long, it's no problem because you can just tuck the excess into to slider that comes with the belt and your pants loops. Or, if you like, simply trim it to the length you want but, if you do, seal the ends with heat. Rather than flame, I would suggest heating up a knife or similar object and rubbing it along the cut end of the belt.I should mention something else for those that carry concealed. That is that, although this is referred to as a "tactical" belt, I wouldn't recommend it for concealed carry. It might work with an inside the waistband holster and a lighter handgun because much of the support in that case, comes from the pants. But, in general, belts used for concealed carry should be stiff and without flexibility to support a firearm. In fact, many gun belts have steel linings for that purpose.One more thing, my son tells me that he had a similar belt when he was in the Marines and he loved it.

Functional and reliable
Love this belt! Got it because my old belt just wouldn't stay tight enough anymore. I carry heavy things on my belt and in my pocket all day and need my belt to be tight. So I got this one. It is super easy to get it to just the right tension. And when I've eaten a lot I can easily loosen the belt up without having to undo the buckle. Speaking of, the buckle works great, clips in and out easily every time even when I have it adjusted really tight. And you know how belts will fall out of the pants loops when you're using the bathroom. We'll, this one doesn't! Stays right where it's supposed to. Whenever I need a belt again I'll definitely be getting another one of these.

Excellent belt
Absolute best belt that I have ever had. I’ve had tactical belts before, but none have held up as well as this belt. I’m a big guy. I’m 5’10 and 300lbs. The best is super comfortable to wear. It doesn’t dig into me. It allows me to put enough tension on the belt to hold my pants up. It holds that tension all day without loosening. I’ve had it for 8 months wearing it daily. I work in supermarket refrigeration, so I’m pretty active. Just buy it. I’m not paid to promote this thing. I paid full price for my belt. It’s an excellent product.

Best tactical/daily-use belt I've owned
I've gotten 2 of these now and they hold up quite well and against some tough use. My oldest one is about a year old and it's my go-to for hiking, camping, and DIY projects. Putting this on in the dark is a snap with no buckle holes to line up. Slip it in, cinch it, clasp, and you're good to go. However, it should be noted that this belt could easily be subbed in for a dress pants belt. Don't worry about size. Since there are no holes to match up, you can place it wherever you want and if you're wearing something with more or less material or just had a really big dinner, you can make it fit perfectly.There are no frays to the belt material which was my biggest concern. I'm not sure of the material but it's about as stiff as a leather belt and there's a bit of slip to it, so I think it must be polyester or polypropylene. What I had not realized before putting it on is that there is a bit of stretch to the fabric, allowing the belt to grip the pants tighter and for additional movement when needed. That said, the amount of stretch is minimal and limited, and there's no feeling that you're exceeding the tolerances by putting some stress on it.Neither can I be sure of the buckle material but after using it for a year in a variety of weather and circumstances, it looks brand new. The buckle is a compression snap and I've not had any issues with it releasing, slipping, or wear on the fabric. My intention is to end up with a third one to put it on the shelf in closet in case this company stops making the product. Overall though, I have no idea how long any of these will last as I can't detect any wear that would allow me to make an estimate of when it will no longer work.So why am I deducting a star? It was a toss-up between 4 and 5 stars but I had to round down to 4 for one reason. The belt retainer loops of which there are two provided on each belt, slide the entire length of the belt, including off the end while the belt isn't fastened, or putting it on/off. While this has the advantage of being able to place them wherever you want, there's a risk of losing them. I've found them on my bedroom floor a couple of times, though thankfully, I've not lost one yet. In fact, I took one off of each and put them in my dresser for that inevitable day when one does go missing. If it does, it will probably be some day at 5 am when I'm crawling out of my tent in the dark and packing up.So far, I don't think the belt retainer loops are critical to me because the belt is held in place by the pants belt loop. And I don't have any ideas how the maker would make sure a loop doesn't go missing. I am assuming they provide a second one for just that reason. It's a minor issue but one that perhaps someone familiar with design talents could solve??? Also, it's just a full disclosure so that buyers know that this is a risk and to watch it when putting the belt on/off.

Read the instructions, don’t try pushing the buckle on either side through belt loops
Works good after reading the instructions lol, I had problems putting the belt on because the buckle on both sides is very big. You need to undo the ratchet and let the nylon strap completely off the buckle on one side. You slide that through your belt loops and put it back on it it’s very easy when you do so. Very good belt easily adjustable. I was going to return it before I read the leaflet that came with the belt. Used as directed it’s very good and a very good value
