"I purchased this belt so I wouldn’t need to take it off going through TSA metal detector while traveling. It’s a good belt but my only complaint is that the elastic loopkeeper (not covered under warranty) lost its elasticity within a few weeks of use and is almost non useful now."

Reviews
Nice lightweight belt. TBD how
"Nice lightweight belt. TBD how long the plastic clip will last. May try the metal version too. One thing that could improve the belt is that the clip snags on your belt loops as you pull it out due to the square edges on the clip. Very minor but I notice it every time I take the belt off. Otherwise a good sturdy lightweight belt which was just what I was looking for."
— Robert C. (4/5)
Really nice belt. Sizing is
"Really nice belt. Sizing is deceiving, the "long" is extra long so I returned it and will order the standard size. the belt is well made, good material so I am looking forward to years of use."

Work Belt
"Love this belt for work. I am using it as part of a tool belt system I put together. This belt, Jessup suspenders, Badger Trimmer toolbags (smaller/lighter bags), and a CLC padded belt underneath. This belt holds up well to the weight in the tool bags. The stretch is just right for bending, crouching, and general working movements. The Jessup suspenders kick in to help carry the load if I start to load up. Love the belt for this purpose!! Has served me very well so far. I got the extra long one to go around the padded belt and give me plenty of adjustment."
— Burt M. (5/5)

"I think these belts are great, but a slightly different buckle would be even better!"
— Todd C. (4/5)
"It keep my pants up the whole time, when moving and bending that helps a lot. One thing dislike is when you have to adjust the belt then putting in the belt loop, can be annoying but i can managed."

Q&A
- Are there aby cleaning instructions for this velt
- Hey Ian, Of course, please see the below blog post for cleaning instructions for all of our belts! https://arcadebelts.com/blogs/blog-of-stretch-belts/belt-care-guide
- What belts come in slim 1 1:4 and long.
- Hey Robert, Any belt in our Slim Collection, which you can browse here! https://arcadebelts.com/collections/slim-width-stretch-belts
- Will you make the Hardware belt in a thinner version (1.25”)?
- Hey Tony! It is a suggestion that we're aware of and working on! However, in the meantime the Hardware Alu will be your best bet. Since it doesn't have a male end for the buckle clasp like the rest of our belts, it should fit through virtually any sized belt loops! https://arcadebelts.com/collections/utility-work-belt/products/hardware-alu-work-belt
- Would this belt be good for concealed carry or is it too flimsy?
- Great question thanks for reaching out! Our Utility Collection (Hardware and Hardware Alu) were not designed for concealed carry but are designed to carry weight comfortably in tough and demanding environments and applications. Thankfully we offer a free 30 day return policy for US customers, so if this collection doesn't suit your needs, no worries!
- Will you ever consider bringing back your older style of buckle that wasn't clip style? They tend to be more difficult to clip in one handed.
- Hi, thanks for the feedback! I’ll get this request and feedback to our product team who are always looking for feedback from customers and real life use.
