AWP Tool Belt, Tool Rig, Durable, Premium Tool Belt Organizer

Full time Carpenter. For the price, it's a solid entry level tool belt. It's not minimalistic and the pouches are pretty large but they do lay flat when not loaded down. My only real complaint is that the loop portion of velcro needs to be longer so that the padded belt is more adjustable. I am 5'9" 165lbs and am just barely able to tighten it enough to fit snug. Definitely will be using suspenders to compensate. 4.5/5

I haven't used it super long yet, but so far, so good. I'm an exterior contractor. I mainly do small roofing repairs, gutter guard installs, shutters, etc. For the price, I was impressed with the material quality, and it has a lot of pockets, like others, too many for me. But I keep the extras ready in case I need them. I'd recommend to anyone in need of a tool belt.

Having this belt hold my drill and tools while I hang shelves and do garage and house projects saves me soooo much frustration and time going up and down the ladder again and again and again trying to find the tools I set down. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! MASSIVE TIME SAVER!I have a 33" waist, and had to cut 5" off the **right** side of the inner belt pad to get it small enough to fit. The belt itself has holes down to about 30" to fit 30" waists. But, since the inner pad is so thick, and it will be *over* your pants anyway, I estimate it could be used on waists as small as 28" or so. For my 33" waist I did NOT cut any of the belt off (just 5" of the right side of the belt *pad* is all), but for waists any smaller you will definitely want to cut some of the belt off too.Only the inner left side of the inner belt pad has the fuzzy velcro loop on it. Do NOT cut that part off at all! Cut only the right side of the inner belt pad, with the pokey "hook" part of the velcro on the inside.If cutting the belt, you may want to try cutting it with a soldering iron, or burning the ends after cutting to prevent fraying. Again, though, I didn't cut the belt---just the inner belt pad. See photos of how it all fits on me. With my 33" waist, I fit all pouches plus the drill holster just fine.For waists smaller than mine you may need to remove a pouch or not add the drill holster, space-wise.Anyway, I love it! Durable and works well. The drill holster is awesome. Large pouches all around. I can hold my drill, bits, screws, hammer, square, screw drivers, stud finder, etc, all at once!

Good belt for some lite work around the house. Would not recommend for a professional nor do they need my advice.

This belt is perfect for new construction and fits so well securely without wearing down quickly and can carry alot of tools and screw i use it for hvac and it's perfect

I bought this belt for framing a home shop, hoping it would be a cost effective alternative to a leather belt - It almost fit my needs perfectly. The pros - tons of space for tools/nails/bits/hangers/etc. needed during framing (I actually took off one of the bags since it was overkill with two). The pouch will easily hold an impact driver in its main compartment while allowing access to the front (pencils/squares/etc.) and having the ability to move the tape measure and hammer into a preferred position was greate. The internal velcro belt was good for minor adjustments and held the primary load of the belt comfortably.Unfortunately with all the pros, I still ended up returning it after 2 days of trying to make it work as some of the backer grommets on the belt were missing (causing things to pull through/damage the belt). There are also handles on the bags (i assume for carrying separately) and the clasps that hold them were ripped out and unusable on one side, with the other showing signs they were about to give out. Additionally the hammer holder was low slung without any backing causing it to spin under the belt and get in the way. Finally the double belt system is close to being good, however the points they attach together on just dont seem to hold the bags right, and even with the added connectors I couldn't quite get anything to hang vertically.All in all, its almost the perfect home hero belt - plenty of everything needed or wanted. However the build quality and the way the double belt system connected just miss the mark (even at the price point). Hopefully AWP makes a few adjustments to QA/QC, because its nearly a 5 star product with a little more effort.

Ok. I've only used the belt once or twice since getting it about a week ago so it currently does have a good durability rating from me. Mostly because I've checked over the fittings and the thick nylon weave of the belt. I wouldn't recommend exposing it to contact with a soldering gun or wearing it while welding... but it looks and feels to be appropriately sturdy.I don't believe it mentions this in the details (I forget), but the belt is double-layered and can be separated so that you can move (or even remove) some of the loops or pockets as needed. I was able to do this to provide space on the belt for my holster that carries my cordless drill, which was a nice bonus.The pockets are easy to access, and are roomier than one would expect from the pictures. The smaller pockets on one pouch were easily each able to hold a box of screws in one, and a box of washers in the other, while the main pocket of the same held a spare drill battery and the double-layer case for the drill and screw bits. It was great to have my hands free while having easy access to my tools and supplies. I was even able to use some paracord to make a reel sling for some wire ribbon I was using to electrify along the top of the enclosure fence of our goat pen and hang it from one of the steel belt rings with a carabiner. This made it much easier to do the work without having to hold the reel under one arm or constantly pick it up as I moved.So far I'm very happy with the purchase and recommend it as a good balance of strong value at lower cost for anyone who plans to do any serious DIY projects around the home.
