As others have already noted, I had some concerns before using this belt and was mainly counting on Helikon not releasing a product that could harm their image. It is a belt designed primarily as an inner trouser belt, and although the manufacturer allows equipment to be attached to it, I believe it is better to treat it in that basic role. From time to time, you can clip something light to it, but in my opinion it was not created for constantly carrying a heavier load. The material itself is durable, although quite thin, which I actually consider a plus, because the belt does not feel thick or heavy when worn. This minimalist form suits me very well, as does the buckle, which works well in trousers. Time will tell how it performs after a year of use, but I am optimistic. I recommend this product as solid and well made.
