When it comes to the outdoors, even the most inexperienced adventurer knows that the right gear makes all the difference. Among the essentials every outdoorsperson considers, one item that’s often overlooked for its comfort and functionality on and off the trail is the belt.
But not just any belt. Specifically: elastic stretch belts. But why have these belts, seemingly simple in their design, become a staple for athletes and adventurers of all kinds? We dive in deeper below.
What are Stretch Web Belts?
From their comfort to their versatility, our Stretch Web Belts are made from recycled REPREVE®️ polyester, the leading brand of recycled performance yarn, that ensures uncompromised durability– able to perform regardless of the conditions.
But there’s more to Stretch Web Belts than their ability to maximize comfort. Here’s why those who choose to get off the beaten path prefer belts that stretch to other styles.
Comfort
Compared to traditional styles and materials, elastic belts are able to perform so well in part because they’re simply comfortable. Their elasticity ensures a snug fit around the waist that moves with the body, making them ideal for outdoor activities.
Versatility
Yes, we’ve all invested in niche gear specific to just one sport. Stretchy belts, on the other hand, are versatile enough to serve as an ally through a wide range of outdoor activities, whether you’re hiking and climbing or fishing and kayaking. Their adaptability makes them a favorite amongst adventurers constantly looking to try new activities– and those who simply want to remain comfortable during a long day at the office.
Durability
Designed to withstand the rigors of outdoor activities, Stretch Web Belts are constructed from durable materials that resist wear and tear. Their durability ensures that they last throughout countless adventures, and are an investment in gear that withstands the test of time as well as exposure to the elements.
Lightweight Design
Unlike traditional leather belts that feature heavy metal buckles, webbing belts are built with your performance in mind. That’s why we specifically designed our line of performance belts from durable plastic buckles and recycled polyester, materials that cut down on weight so that you’re carrying as little as you have to.
Easily Adjustable
Unlike typical belt buckles, our Stretch Web Belts are built with a micro-adjustable buckle. This means that they were designed with the ability to dial into the perfect fit, regardless of how many layers you’re wearing on any given day.
Quick-Drying Material
Good outdoor gear dries fast, and our Stretch Web Belts are no exception. Constructed from recycled polyester, Stretch Web Belts dry fast so that you can get back out there.
Minimalist Style
We purposely designed our Stretch Web Belts with a streamlined, minimalist design, ensuring that they pair well with your favorite pair of hiking pants for the best trail style out there.
Easy Care and Maintenance
You already have enough to take care of; there’s no need for us to add another chore to your list. Simply toss your Stretch Web Belts in the wash with the rest of your gear for care and maintenance that couldn’t get any easier.
