Buckle note: <br> While we find the belt to work well with some belt loops, most belt loops can be too small to fit the buckle through. In this case, each time you want to take the belt on/off a pair of pants, please remove the male end of the buckle, loop the nylon through the belt loops, then re-install the male buckle. <br><br> Note: The web belt is not made for repelling and climbing applications.
