Review on 5.11 Tactical Operator 1 3/4" Belt, Military Style, Heavy-Duty Nylon Mesh 5100Lb Tensile Strength, Stainless Steel Buckle, Fade & Rip Resistant, Style 59405 by Nate Skinner

I wear 34 inch 5.11 Taclite pants and shorts and prefer the large belt. Even though the large recommends for 36 I like the way the Velcro catches and goes to side belt loop so I don't catch the end on my hand or arm. The only negative is sliding through the belt loops without Velcro catching. I started using the thin long card tag which came with the belt. I slide through the loop over the belt against my pants. The card stays between the belt and end passing through so the Velcro does not catch. If you are 34 and select large expect the end to make side loop or tuck behind holster. Love the belt. Have couple colors. The coyote is slightly off coyote pant color for I feel it has a touch of green or olive in it. Goes great with coyote and TDU khaki. Use Sig Tac drop leg holster. The belt is a perfect fit matching up with the Velcro in belt stabilizing the drop. Great combination. Have been wearing black belt for well over year and it lasts if you take care of Velcro.
