I've been using this belt for three years with a nylon Cobra buckle belt. I work in law enforcement and when I wear it it's usually only an hour or two before it's time to drop gear. I don't really like him, but I don't hate him enough to agree with any of the alternatives. My biggest complaint is that four Glock magazines loaded causes the top of the strap to roll out (as others have also pointed out). It doesn't matter how low you set them. I've even tried making small holes in it in various places and threading in zip ties like rivets to hold the belt in the top half, but to no avail. It doesn't affect comfort or functionality in any way, but it looks pretty silly. If it was something I had to wear all day I would probably bring my duty belt and flip flops. It's well made for its price. I have used other Condor products on other items that I did not receive. I think like a lot of the so-called tactical gear sold at Revain, it's aimed primarily at airsoft players and zombie fans. For that purpose, it probably works great. But they will certainly benefit from field testing their products.
