Premium Bandolier Belt - (1 Pc.) - Durable Material - Perfect for Outdoors & Costume Parties
M**N
Vinyl leather with cloth backing. Looks nice, good build quality. Belt needed more eyelets to fit.
So, it's a relatively thin costume piece, but reasonably well made (material / stitching).One thing I like about it is that toward the bottom of the bandolier piece, there are a couple loops (I couldn't tell from the ad pictures, but they are a pair of loops there). I'm using them to hold a lovely little piratical-looking skull & crossbones cosplay dagger. Works nicely. I assume one might also be able to run a sword scabbard through them? Though I haven't tried that as I don't have a cosplay sword and probably won't be picking one up in the foreseeable future.There's also a small loop on the inside of the part that goes across the chest. Though I honestly haven't yet figured out a use / purpose for that one yet. Maybe one could use it to hold another cosplay dagger or something. Though it's on the inside and might be awkward to put in or take out based on the positioning. Meybe you could hang something off of it, though I'm not sure what?The belt seems plenty log and easily wraps around my midsection (which is a bit paunchy, ATM)...HOWEVER, be aware the grommets / eyelets on the belt seems placed for kids or maybe young teens, and were nowhere near properly placed for me. I ended up making a crafting project out of it and added about 5-6 more eyelets (had to get a press tool and the eyelets themselves, all of which cost more than this kit). It also didn't come with a belt loop for holding the belt in place. So, I ended up making my own with a loop of faux leather, some eyelets arranged in two pairs, and some heat-bonded nylon cordage threaded through the two sets of eyelets to hold the loop together.Now it actually fits me properly and has some proper belt loops to hold the extra belt length in place nicely. I find that it works best visually to wear it around the stomach rather than around the waist where one would normally wear a "belt."When all was said and done, it came out pretty nicely after a bit of a customization project on it. But, then, I'm a bit of a perfectionist and can't leave well enough alone. I have to fix and make functional. I "can't not touch." ;)

Looks decent, fits nice
A 10 from 10 feet away... up close I would say its more like an 8 because its cheaply made.... but it's also durable. It's just very thin. I love wearing it... can't really say anything bad about it other than it's thin material.

Cheap
It’s not bad for a last minute thing. But it is cheaply made. Won’t really hold anything. One of them broke through the night. I wouldn’t but it again

I LOVE IT
Got this for cosplay to use at a festival. Got several compliments on my costume, mostly about how authentic this piece made it all look. Sure, it's not real leather, but looks close enough and really is good quality. I had a little bit of confusion putting it together and wearing it correctly but once I got it it made sense. Could use a few more loops for the strap ends though in my opinion.I used an actual sword with a scabbard attached to my belt and put it through the holster on this bandolier. The bandolier actually supported the weight, it was awesome!

Perfect Pirate accessory
It's faux leather with a fabric backing. Good for price. Added the extra touch we needed for the costume. Was able to add a leather pouch where the sword would go so he could carry his phone, wallet, and gold coins.

Too big
The belt was way too big for me and I had no idea how to but the top part on. There also is a slightly fuzzy lining I did not expect and did not fit.

It’s ok
It’s ok. It was a little confusing to put on, but it was manageable. The color was a little darker than shown, but matched well with the other belt I already had.

Great for pirate costume
Bought this to go with my Halloween costume. There were no directions on how to put the two belts together so I just winged it. It is comfortable to wear but also a tad bit bulky (geared more towards men maybe?).

Worth the purchase
After figuring out how to wear it properly and finding the second hidden belt loop, the piece worked fantastically, holding the weapons secure and adding a dramatic and authentic flash to the costume.

2 parts you have to work out how to put together! Good luck
Nicely made piece of kit which looks great. Unfortunately we couldn't figure out how you are meant to attach the two sections together. I had thought it would be one whole piece you pull over your head but apparently not. Make sure you're a seasoned pirate that knows how to do this!
