Design flaw9: The belt clip digs into the thigh

This is for the "Technician 6 Pocket Pouch (Large)" This is a good item apart from an oddly shoddy technical defect that makes it almost unusable to the plastic belt clip that digs into the thigh. The clip gets a lot of leverage from the tool pouch as it causes the pouch to lag about an inch behind the belt. This means that the entire weight of the bag rests on the edge of the plastic clip, which presses against the thigh. I put a strip of leather under the clamp and that fixed the problem, but it's not a permanent solution. Until ToughBuilt fixes this technical error, this article should be considered unusable. Unless, of course, the user wants to redesign this like I did, or they have a rig that keeps the plastic connector away from the body, or it's so stiff that he or she doesn't care if he or she puts pressure on it on the hip. I gave two stars for durability because I don't think the plastic clip is strong - the lever on it is likely to wear it out. The rest is pretty solid. But due to a design flaw that I consider significant, I gave it 2 stars.
