I've worn it to work a few times and it annoyed me a few times. I think attaching the lace to tie to another layer that is around my waist would probably solve the problem. First impressions are that it's flimsy and probably overpriced, and alongside Helikon's excellent pant collection, this tactical belt feels overpriced and below their standards. .After seeing all the positive reviews I thought I could clarify my claims. It's very thin, so thin you wonder if it's going to break. I spent £60 on another brand and couldn't be happier. If you want a thin design I think it's ok.
