Review on Occidental Leather 5520 Tool Holder by Andrew Young

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Lightweight tool belt

I bought the 5520 and 5523 for the lightweight and compact tool belts designed for general DIY jobs. This combo packs quite a few tools and allows me to have a wide range of troubleshooting tools at my fingertips without being too unwieldy. A bonus I didn't anticipate is that my drivers fit in the hammer loop. So I ordered a hammer loop in the middle of my back to use when I use a drill. The quality of these bags is excellent. Fully loaded with a hammer and drill bit, it's a bit heavy for the belt I have, so I'll go with a 2 or 3 inch belt. But in this form I can wear it for hours and it doesn't bother me. Very thick, well bound leather. Made in America! This is a great combo for the jack of all trades or homeowner who wants to have some basic tools at hand when working on projects.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
