GRIP6 Belts for Men & Women- Nylon Belt- Fully Adjustable Web Belt & Belt Buckle

Most belts are adjusted from the outside of the belt by pulling the end to either the right hole, or if using friction or a clasp, but pulling to the right tightness around the waist and clamping the buckle and belt in place. This belt has the end fed through the slit behind the buckle, feeding the end of the belt behind the belt through the belt loop. As such, adjusting the belt after youve walked awhile, or ridden in the car and get out and need to adjust the belt, is not easy. The friction is from the belt through the slit behind the buckle, so to adjust higher or more loose you have to pull the buckle away from your body with one hand while moving the belt in an angular fashion feeding more in or pulling some out in order to adjust. To anyone watching it may look like youre wrestling something around your waist - it isnt graceful to adjust after you first pull on your pants and set the belt. Light weight for sure, no moving parts, just not easy to adjust - my guess is the more you suffer from dunlop disease - your belly dun lopped over your belt - the more difficult it would be to adjust. Flat stomach means more easily pulled away from the body to get that slack to adjust it. Bigger stomach...not so easy. Simple concept, works well, just not easy to adjust after the initial set.

I want to like this belt, I really do and I cant say I hate it, but its like the high school girlfriend you never really get passionate about, but keep dating her because its easy to do. The Grip 6 belt is such a good idea since it has no moving parts and is an excellent choice for jeans and casual wear. The modular choices of belt and buckle colors really lend itself to a one-system solution. When I wear it with jeans, I think its a sharp looking belt and basically does the job. My problem with the Grip 6 belt is that as a friction belt, it pretty much only adjusts to that certin diameter that "just does" the job. I normally like a little snugger belt, and one would think you could make it tighter with a good pull, but at some point the friction dynamic works against getting it any snugger. Also, like virtually all belts Ive ever owned (saved for my US Army issue), the belt itself develops an imprint or "bend" right at the most common friction point which again, makes getting the belt more snug a challenge. For some fair information, Im definitely not at my Army weight any more and have the typical spare tire most of us midwest American men develop. But, I still have a waistline and dont require suspenders. Do I want a refund? No. Will I stop wearing it? No. Will I buy another? Probably not.
