At first I wanted to buy a carbon fiber belt, then I saw an opportunity to buy a set of three belts and six buckles, so I took a chance and bought it. This gives you 18 buckle and strap combinations. The buckles themselves are cast aluminum or, in the case of carbon fiber, woven carbon fiber with a thick, clear coating on top. The reviewer who said it's not true carbon fiber is wrong. Anyone who says it's cheap because it's so light is also wrong. this is carbon fiber. It is very durable and very light. Look at my photo of the buckle next to my carbon fiber wallet and you can really see the interweaving of the fibers in the sunlight. My carbon fiber wallet has more carbon fiber and was worth over $100. $90 is expensive but it is what you get. They fit as advertised and are easy to set up as advertised. I will mention that I am a slimmer man and I understand that people with a big belly have a problem with that. I hope you have a good experience like me. Until I learned how to take it off properly, it was really hard to take it off at first. Now it's pretty easy. I also took pictures of the belt clip that came with it. Looks like aluminum too. These are two pieces put together. You can put two buckles on each hook, but not 3. I tested this so if I decide to buy more buckles in the future I can hang them on this hanger. It is of good quality, very durable and looks very nice. I am very happy with my purchase. These belts last a long time on me.
