DEWALT Open Structure Premium Nubuck Leather Tool Belt, 18 Pockets, Black

I bought this bag and the matching suspenders hoping to find more comfort than what my old belt offered There seems to be many design oversights with it and the suspenders unfortunately I am a size 32 waist and the belt will not even adjust to my size properly without bunching up. As for the suspenders, they must be for a 7' tall carpenter? At 5'10, i have them tightened all the way down, leaving me with dangling straps everywhere. The way the leather back brace is dissociated from the belt does not work at all. The middle clasp at the back pulls on the brace, but not the belt. That means the brace is constantly riding up your back, and getting deformed into a solid bump that's wildly more uncomfortable than simply not wearing suspenders. The only way I have found to fix this is to take off the belt and readjust everything. This can take only mere minutes to happen again, so needless to say I've ditched the suspenders. Some more points of annoyance: Tape measure clip sticks out too far, won't hold anything No speed square slot No pencil slot Overall, I'd say it just doesnt look like this product was designed for or tested by cafpenters I wish I could recommend this product, but at this point it's become so uncomfortable I'm already considering getting rid of it, Which stings considering the price.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was a framer back in day and now do smaller side projects (framing and trim carpentry) and this is perfect for that. Would probably spend the extra on a custom leather rig or Badger set if I was still framing everyday. I like my tape and speed square on the left which these bags work well for. I added a Klein dump pouch back left and the diamondback gun loop back right. Only thing I would change is a better pencil holder spots. Right side front loop works perfect for my Pica and sharpie though so it’s not a big deal. I got the suspenders but since I never had them back in day I immediately realized they are too restrictive for me. I think this is just personal preference though so if you like suspenders they might work for you. Overall very happy with these bags.

I am a small women (29"-30" waist with man pants) and I have a really hard time finding construction accessories or clothes that fits my size. I am building our house along with my husband and also doing a lot of old furniture flips so I needed a tool rig that has a lot of pockets and that is durable to carry all my tools around. I really liked this tool rig because of all of its features, but the padded belt is waaaaaaaaay too big for me. Luckily it is removable so I decided to buy it anyway and just use the leather belt. Then again, luckily the belt fits me with the last holes! Phew. It is not quite as comfortable as with the padded one but still ok for me. So, in general, I really love this tool rig. It contains a lot and has a lot of pockets to keep all my essential tools organized. It is of nice quality leather that seems sturdy and durable but yet still supple enough. The only downside is the size, I don't know if it should be more adjustable or another size option maybe, but I'm definitely not the only one who would be too small for this. Thus the 4 stars instead of 5.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tool belt is really comfortable than the prior ones I owned, I love the belt tape holder as well as the back support belt for extra safety, I just ordered the D suspenders, I can’t wait to try those on.
