Thomas Bates Cargo Cotton Military Web Belt

Would have preferred a little thicker and wider material belt but this belt is quite comfortable. It was easy to cut to length and once adjusted around the waist the buckle held quite well and not too difficult to loosen as some readers seem to suggest.

I needed a new adjustable belt and this was exactly what I needed. Color was spot on as well.

Just cut it to length and put it on this morning. Appears to be well made with materials as described. Can't speak to the buckle as I used my old one with the new one kept as a back-up. We'll see how well it holds up. Not expecting an early, let alone a catastrophic, failure.

I would rather of had a buckle that folds over to adjust length after you insert the belt. This one has 2 little tabs on top and bottom which you slide to adjust length. I find that I have to use a lot of force from my hand to get the belt not to slip AND a lot of force to loosen tabs after you get them not to slip. If you do not force slider over than the belt will be loose and not really hold up your pants. The worst thing is to go shopping and have your pants fall down in front of a crowd.....I am sure they will laugh when they see the results but you will not think its funny....Where as a folding buckle which I have from a different manf. is easy to close and open and does not slip and will hold your pants up. Other than that the belts material looks fine and should hold up well and easy to cut to adjust length.

This review is for the three. They are fine, good colors and long enough to fit most people. I did not use the buckles but rather used these with my USMC buckles. I had to use strapping/duct tape on the end that fits into the buckle so that the buckle would clamp onto the belts but I am sure they would work fine with the buckles that come with the belts

Not bad but not as thick cloth as my Columbia brand belt. I don't think the buckle is as beefy as Columbia belt either. Can be cut if it's too long. Carefully remove the end metal piece, cut and carefully replace the metal end piece. I remember these used to sell for $3-$5 dollars at the Army Navy store.

I wasn't sure what to expect with so many varying reviews. However, this product has met all my expectations. It is not quite as stout as I remember my military belts, but then that memory goes back way too many years. Overall, this product is exactly what I expected and I am looking forward to finally having a belt that is comfortable and durable. Thank you for a great product. BTW, this belt was black and I have an olive green one on the way.

While it is a pretty sturdy and durable belt that is about where the compliments end. This belt is not very good for everyday use as you can barely get it as tight as you want and then once you do have it where you want it you aren't able to take the belt off. As the buckle refuses to open and you can't grasp the little buttons/levers on the sides to pull it down.Overall, I'd highly recommend searching for a different belt and only getting this if you plan on wearing it very few times.
