That really looks nice. How does the latch or what appears to be a latch on the buckle work???

Yo ,

The belt adjusts in about 1/4" increments. It would work perfectly with your elastic waistband stretchy pants.

Ya know for those double donut dayz...

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

Hey hey hey......maybe.

Seriously though, a lot of guys wish their belts were more adjustable besides the pre-punched holes. It’s actually an issue with many many leo’s. I am super tempted to try a nylon version. I have the 5.11 tactical belt that is a Velcro system and wish it were better even though it’s really good. This is a good find.

Oh yeah no stretchy pants yet but lots of Lycra spandex in the closet. Just giving you a nice mental image!

I just recently ordered a ratchet belt as well. Wanted to try it. Bought it a few months ago. It's made by a company called Next Belt.
http://nexbelts.com/
I use it mainly for OWB while at work. So far I like it. It's holding up well

The next belt I recently purchased is from Graith.
https://www.graithusa.com/resources/the-specialist-belt
It is mainly touted for IWB. I like it because if a lack of buckle per se. So when I'm scheduled to teach I can easy put a tactical belt over it without the buckle getting in the way.

Yep, this is pretty much the same overall design as the 5.11. A good belt.

The Graith? Big difference in buckle size and thickness.

No I just meant design. I have no doubt it’s better quality than 5.11. They are a name that sells well and that is about it. Besides the tactical pants 5.11 makes the rest is just ok imo.
