Isaac: I'm a carpenter, so I need a tough tool belt that can withstand all kinds of wear and tear + different weather.

This belt is great, I've had it a while now and it has held up fantastic.

I recommend getting some suspenders though, they make all the difference.

Julie : I got this for my boyfriend well over a year ago. It’s his absolute favorite gift ever. A beautiful tool belt. The leather wears in nice and it becomes much more comfortable with use and wear. He is a foreman and does carpentery and construction and loves this thing! says its perfect. He also gets compliments on it from the other guys

Bramps: This belt is great, I’ve had it for about two years and it’s held up really well. I wear it every day and I’m pretty rough with and other than some scrapes and scuffs it still looks new. Seems durable and very well built. The price is a little bit higher but it’s a quality bag.

VianneyVianney: Almost perfect copy of the occidental leather.
Leather thinner in some important spots like the belt itself and the pouches loops. Rivets probably weaker in long term use. Made in India vs Made in USA for Occidental.
The belt is less comfortable than my occidental but works fine.

Exact same leather thickness for the pouches and tools holders.

I use this belt since 2 months now with suspenders. It has been a great pouch ! Love it ! Especially for the price.

But obviously not equal to the quality of Occidental leather.

Ben jones: I have been using this belt on site 5 days a week for around 2 months now and its perfect , im a 32" waste and fits fine with plenty of holes on the belt either side. Stiff pocket when you first buy especialy the right hand one with the inner tool pockets and tape holder but once its broken it its brilliant , only sugestion is get some braces to go with them becase once propperly loaded up with tools it will way alot.

Only slight issue is the hammer loop at the back, wish it was mounted higher so the hammer head would sit inline with belt rather than below as the handel of the hammer hits back of my legs but thats the issue with all hanmer loops on the back so yeh no big issue

10 months in and just as good as the day I got it! Couldn't recommend enough

Mikey: Very nice. I like it a lot. I like the size and quality of this belt. It holds things well and has little pockets sewn into the inside of the bags which are convienent for my hand tools.
A few complaints are:
-that the handles are rivited on the inside of the belt and chafe the waist a little.
-the pouches sag over time.
- the belts (loop/hole) part is way to long. and the thick part for mounting bags etc. Is way too short.
-middle tool slot is directly under the tape holder. (its a bit of a struggle to get anything in Or out of it while the tape is in it's holder. Therofore I don't use it at all though I would like too.)

Overall it's a good investment. I bought this as a more affordable alternative to names such as Occidental or Task. Though in the future I will likely pay more and probably get a better quality belt.

Trojansoccer14: Man I had trouble finding a good tool belt that wasn't made for a fat contractor. I am fairly skinny (32 waist) and this tool belt is perfect, I have room to tighten and to make more room for when I get fat some day. The leather is firm yet soft so the pouches stay open. Its not an overly heavy tool belt. I like the straps to hold the tool bag, makes it easy to hang up but also good for when I just want to load up with some tools and bring into the house for a quick job as they slide off the actual belt.

Cons: I am not a fan of the tap measure holder, I use the other side to hold mine. I also don't like the overly tight storage pockets inside the big pouch, it is too tight to get some tools into it. I am hoping I can stretch the leather by leaving some tools in them and using some leather conditioner. There are a few other things I would change on the tool belt to make it perfect for me but those are more personal preference; when I learn how to make high quality tool belts I can have it all.

Overall a good tool belt and I would buy again as long as the price doesn't inflate past $150. It beats the price of buying Occidental.

Spazzfreak: I'm not one to wear a pouch every day.
I find it a bit bulky when installing cabinets.
For framing and trim work it's great.
However for me to say it's great I had to make a couple of alterations.
I cut the two smaller pockets off o the right bag and the larger pocket on the left and switched them around.
I had to MacGyver a magnet system to keep the speed square in place because it would fall out when climbing scaffolding.
And I took a padded part off of another tool belt and put it on this one for a bit more comfort.
One last thing.
I regularly keep a few hand tools in the main right side pocket.
I cut up an old electric pouch and fit it in.
Besides doing all of that I'm pretty happy with it.

Richard H.: Since I am an American and live in China, I had to have it sent to my sister in America, then shipped by her to China and paid 146yuan in customs fees (about $21). Could not find anything close to this on Taobao (China's Amazon). So between purchase, shipping, custom fees I probably paid close to $170. I was concerned about the two negative reviews because returning it was not an option. Well, it was a steal at even that price! Have no clue what those who rated it one star are talking about. The pouch assembles come off so they can be rearranged, three are huge so they can hold lots of nails, screws or whatever. Speed square fits in one of the medium size. The two large pouches have "handles". The leather is very thick and tough (also stiff so maybe you might want to work it in like a baseball glove...or use it a lot!). Not only is the leather stitched together but also riveted so again have no clue what the two poor ratings meant. It is heavy. Will probably out last your life time and the one who gets it after you. Might try to buy another large pouch and the small hammer holder and suspenders. In China there is no DIY concept, rather it is DIFM (Do It For Me) since labor is...
