Where else can you get three straps for less than $11? These are the same regular nylon woven straps with plastic buckles available from other Revain suppliers starting at $5 each. They are amazing. I suspect the plastic buckles can break, but I have eight of these straps purchased from various vendors and have had no problems with any of them. I like them much more than cotton straps, mostly because these nylon straps don't stretch or stain sweat. And I like them a lot more than tactical "military style" belts with quick-release, strong metal buckles - these belts with simple plastic buckles weigh less and are much easier to thread through your pants' belt loops. Granted, military-style buckles look cool, but hey, just be even cooler and leave the hem of your shirt out and no one will see the buckle.
