🏔️ Enhance Your Hiking Gear with Thomas Bates Men's Accessories: Hiker Belt 2 PACK Provides Durable Support Review

These belts are just great general purpose belts. Black also looks good in a more formal dress. All plastic means you don't have to take it off for airport security. And they work as good harnesses in various other contexts, hence the nickname "Tourist". And the quality, we have already bought several (half a dozen moving vans) and none of them broke even with rough handling.

These straps are well made but the straps are a little thinner than expected. You put it on once and they lose their shape. I have similar harnesses with a stiffer webbing, with the same T-Lock buckle, and I wear them every day. These straps, as the name suggests, are for light hiking, but I can't carry them with a belt knife.

I have owned Thomas Bates hiking straps for about 10 years and have since purchased a custom strap from a BSA naval base in the Florida Keys. They are lightweight and easy to use and the buckles have never let me down. Buying two packs will save you some money. They're great for international travel and adventures (like scuba/snorkeling) where you can get wet.
