I wear webbing straps daily, as a mechanic I need a strap that can hold a flashlight, leatherworker, swiss army knife, etc. Over the years I've usually buy a cheap army strap and they work for about a year and start fraying. I've only had this belt for 2 weeks and the difference is amazing, the buckle is very easy to use, even easier to undo and light weight, and at the end of the day regular woven belts are difficult to pull out as they have resistance to yours Jeans and not against that belt, it literally just slides off with virtual ease! I bought 2 of these, I will be buying a few more for camping, hiking etc. Just amazing 10 10 would buy again!
