Pretty much a good belt [Posted on 2007-01-19] The CLC published features pretty much speak for themselves. The handles, the durability, all that. What stands out for me with this belt is the construction. It appears durable, the rivets are solid and the material bomber. The belt itself is comfortable, well padded and breathable. But this is where my first gripe arises. I'm a 32" waist and this belt has a hard time going that small (and I'll wager there are smaller dudes out there than I). The 'hook and loop' adjuster thing is super convenient for positioning, but in the small setting it gets all bunched and in the way.
One other gripe is the with the handles. They are awesome for lugging this bad boy around, especially when the spacious pockets are full of hardware. They fold down and out of the way during wear but occaisionally they flop up and block access to say... your tape. I could cut them off, but I haven't and that should be an indication of how infrequently they are a problem.
Overall this is a good belt if you want to slog around a lot of stuff. Its probably best for larger dudes, but I like it and I'm in the sub 6' crowd.
