[@JamesLeigh28]

I've had a couple of grip6 belts and I absolutely love them. I also love the fact how easy it is to interchange the color of the belt and the color of the buckle. The ceo is also amazing, I've had some email conversations with him about their kickstarter for their wallet and he is great

[@veery22]

I've had mine for almost 2 years now, the strapping is quality and thick, not the cheap stuff you get at Michaels and it holds tight all day. Mine still looks new. My only problem is right now I'm a little bigger than I'd like and the size of the buckle digs a bit into the belly when sitting. To be fair though I've had that with a lot of other belts as well. I think it's worth the investment and I've worn it formally with no issues, though I would say it's ingrained in my brain nice leather belt is better for formal, so maybe at some point I'll get one just for those events.

[@arccaptain128]

I'm glad you guys have said this, I've thought about getting one but wasn't sure

[@jTempVids]

"Belt digs into stomach" I hate it. It's the reason I use those braided stretch belts with a small buckle. It's also the reason that I prefer Wrangler brand shorts and pants. They have 7 belt loops, instead of 4 or 5. The smaller distance between loops keeps the belt from digging into to you as much. There is also the trick that mechanics use to keep their belt buckle from scratching cars. Rotate the belt so the buckle is to the side a couple loops. This also makes it so the buckle isn't right in front where you bend.

[@shaynecarter-murray3127]

You said exactly what I was going to say. Tho having crossed 35, I feel old enough to unironically attempt to wear suspenders, and i have to say it's the most comfortable way I've ever found to keep my pants where they need to be

I love watching your videos James. Been watching for a while now and I'm never disappointed with a video. As a fellow bass player, have you ever thought about doing some videos about your bass playing or doing a separate channel for your music?

[@SystemZ3RO]

I got a version of the Grip6 a few years back. The downside is the belt strap tends to "fold" where it loops through the belt buckle after awhile. And if you have a belly that protrudes out more, the buckle will still dig into your gut when sitting down. Also after awhile, the friction that keeps the belt in place tends to wear off from the folding so there will be times where your belt will randomly 'unbuckle' itself, usually from sitting down.

[@MagicScorpio]

Been using grip6 for like 5 years. Got as a Xmas gift. Never used another belt. Best part is you can make it right enough for your needs at any length and never loosens without tilting. Took maybe a week or 2 to get used to putting on. Totally worth it!

[@KorraTransPhoenix]

Belt Salesperson: Hey, I’m selling a belt, bro. Do you need a belt, bro?” Customer: “I need a belt, bro.” Belt Salesperson: “Here, use this Belt Bro belt, bro.” Customer: “Thanks, belt bro!” Belt Salesperson: You’re welcome! Enjoy your Belt Bro belt, bro!”

[@scottwanner9260]

Came across your channel several months ago. Good treadmill entertainment, even when I'm not particularly interested in the specific product! Anyway, based on your review of ratchet belts I decided to give them a try. I bought a Bostanten belt from Amazon for $20. After a lifetime of regular belts, I really am liking the ratchet belt. I've been wearing it now daily for about a month, and can't see going back to an old fashion buckle style belt. Thanks for pointing me in that direction!

[@pitgroove.37_66]

I absolutely agree with this list and the order you put these alternative belts in. The only alternative belt I've ever tried is the grip six, and I have to say that I'm not switching to another belt anytime soon, because it is the absolute best belt I've ever used in my life. The first time I purchased a grip six belt, I absolutely loved it to the point where I had to buy more of them. It is also very fun to buy a few belts and mix them around since the strap and buckle come apart very easily, allowing you to customize your belts with different color buckles and different color straps. Plus they have a belt for all kinds of occasions, whether it's just recreational activities where you're just out and about, a situation where you need to look fancy, or if you're actually doing hard work. So I absolutely recommend the grip six belt for everybody. Yes, some grip 6 belts will go for as expensive as $100, but it's beyond worth it in the end. Awesome job, GRIP6!!!

[@keithfulkerson]

Years ago I took a long, inch-wide strap off of an old video camera bag. It already had the small plastic "buckle" attached, and even though it's just held by friction, it holds really well. Still using it to this day.

[@LoserManic]

At first glance, the Grip6 looks like it's a seat belt with a belt buckle.

[@Freakinreviews]

I hadn't thought of that, but you're right.

[@gloxton]

Great thing about that type of material is it won't stretch at all. I stated looking for belts to hang a camera off after my leather ones stretched. All the other ones with the seatbelt type material were all way too tactical for me.

[@retluoc]

I'd have to look at the mechanism, but it reminds me of a military belt buckle design. It seems more simplified as the military buckle uses metal teeth that bite into the belt. I'll watch the video again, I might have missed something.

[@floyd2386]

@@retluoc There really is no "mechanism" or teeth, it's just how the belt goes into the slot, it's hard to explain, but it's stupidly simple.

I have that first belt and I LOVE it! I use it all the time.. and as long as you have it tight enough to secure but not too tight it doesn't pull toooo much on the belt loops.. also when I put it on I start at the back where the adjuster doesn't have to go through the loops

[@JDCarnin]

The Way the Beltbro works 😂 A few years ago I was tight on budget and couldn't afford a new belt. So I was using a shoelace or a cable tie in a similar fashion 😂

I got the grip6 about a year ago and I love it. It is on the pricey side but there’s a lot of cool designs and materials. I got use to donning/doffing the belt pretty quick. I wear it with both casual and business attire.

[@vvnt8410]

Bought a Grip6 belt because I liked the simple and clean look. It has now become my favorite belt. I’ve gotten used to handling it and can tighten and loosen in seconds. I used to use the “car seat belt” because of ease, but it was a pain weaving it thru the belt loops the same way as the Whippy.

[@Aknuckle]

I struggled to find a belt that I didn't hate for quite a while. I picked up a Grip6 about a year ago and love it. I wear it every day and it still looks brand new.

Grip 6 is one of my favorite belts very low profile and easy to use and holds tightly. Looks very nice and stylish with a variety of colors to choose from. Great for shorts or pants and i use it while golfing also. Grip 6 are my easy go to and kore belts for more rigidity when i am at my construction job and use with a holster very nice ratchet system.

well it looks like with the Belt Bro and the Whippy, they could only increase the speed at which you could get to poopin'. Pulling on those belt loops, I imagine when you undo the button and zipper your pants just spring open! lol

[@thee_number_six6227]

I just got my groove belt a few days ago, it's a stretchy belt with out a buckle in a traditional sense. It just has a plate on each end that hook and lock into each other under the tension of the belt, with neodymium magnets to help guide it together. You just push the ends together and it pops right open

[@Sneaker8679]

I have worn a Grip6 belt for about two years now and love it. You can have a couple buckles and a few straps and then have a bunch of combinations. They stay up really well, and I actually really like how to adjust the belt. I’m a bigger, active guy, and this thing is great for holding up my pants.

[@EliteProductions3129]

I was really hoping you featured the Grip6 before I clicked! I got one about a month ago, and I love it. When you're tightening, pull it from the end instead of pushing it through

[@glynmoore3730]

I wear ratchet belts and love the simple multi sizing, BUT I wear the buckle to the side and not the front. Much more comfortable, especially when sitting, plus a very clean look at the front. It's now 5 days later so adding to my comment ..... I've bought a no buckle belt (like Whippy) and I love it. It's comfortable and so easy to pull up and remove your trousers.

[@matthewhall4989]

I've had my grip 6 belt for a while now and it's great. Easy to change buckles, highly adjustable, lightweight, comfortable and secure all day. After using it for a week or so you can actually get it very tight and undo one handed fast and easy for those "quick release" situations.

I use the Grip6 as my normal belts. There was a little bit of a learning curve, but only a few days. Now it is as quick or quicker than a rachet belt for me. I used rachet belts before this as my weight fluctuates. Unfortunately my weight goes from heavy to very heavy, so the rachet belts always dug into my stomach when I sat. This is why I like the Grip6. Even though it has the buckle in front, it is so thin that it doesn't dig into my stomach. Very comfortable.

[@bearallen852]

I use the Grip6 and once past the learning curve it’s a good belt. I personally love that it’s minimal and that if you lost a bunch of weight you can cut the belt to a smaller size. The warranty is also phenomenal if bought off the website.

[@floyd2386]

I have had a Grip6 for a few months now and I absolutely love it! A little tip for tightening, use your right hand to pull up on the buckle and your left to pull the belt strap tight. To loosen it, lift with your left thumb and pull strap with right hand. I carry a LOT of stuff in my pockets and not once yet has my belt unintentionally come loose. It's amazing how stupidly simple the design is, yet it's so effective. Why has nobody thought of it before? One of the best parts of the Grip6 in my opinion is it's made in the USA by a great company.

[@AutoYoung]

When I was in college I used this product called The Short Belt which was one of the first of these kinds of products. It was a canvas style belt that only used two loops. Best belt I ever used...

[@ThunderGodCid]

I bought a Grip6 in October 2016 and I have worn it basically every day since, it looks like new and while putting it on is about the same as a regular belt, I can take it off much faster. In contrast I used to own 2-4 belts at a time and have to replace ones with creases on them at least once a year.

[@gogurt_st]

My favorite belt of all time is my baseball belt from 5th grade. It’s elastic, and has a traditional buckle. Most comfortable belt you’ll ever wear, hands down.

[@splam]

I have the narrow 1.1" version of the Grip6, standard version is 1.5". It's become my go-to-belt. Light weight, low profile, and nylon belt slides out quickly out of the belt loops when you're done with it. There are tons of color options for both the buckle and the belt, so you can make it as ugly or as minimalist as you want. And there are always coupon codes floating around the web to save a few bucks.

[@Shadow3ffect]

Love the channel. This is such an awesome video. You have helped me out so much with your videos. On what to buy and what not to buy. Tysm

[@JamesFromTexas]

Use the ring on the whippy belt and you won't stretch out your belt loops. Also, place the ring on the side of your body so it doesn't dig into your stomach. No one will see it, or any belt, if you leave your shirt untucked. ETA: If you carry a firearm with your shirt untucked, placing the buckle on the opposite side feels better, especially for my fellow chubby folks.

[@mcd2796]

I love grip 6 belt's I have a few that I've had for about 2 years or so. There high quality and last forever. Plus the carbon fiber is sweet looking.

[@AwkwardHistory]

When my brothers were small and skinny they somehow managed.to lose their belts within the first week of school.Thereafter they went to school with their pants held up by shoelaces tied around the side loops just like Belt Bro. Grandma had mercy and bought them new belts at Christmas, which they still lost by the first week after school started again. Maybe the skinny kid belt losing demographic has finally found a replacement for shoe laces...

[@SL-ix4yk]

I've always liked the look of the grip 6 belt. But my personal favorite is my Amish hand made leather belt, it's not for everyone but for me after 10 years of extremely rough service it still works just as good as the day I bought it.

[@briannagele6020]

Grip6 belt is amazing. It takes a very short while to get used to putting it on and taking it off, but it adjusts with your waistline (if needed!) and never loses grip. I bought a second belt just as a backup, but I honestly expect to use this belt until I no longer need belts.

[@JasonHalversonjaydog]

I have a belt like the Whippy. It does pull on the belt loops, but I haven't had any issues yet. I generally use it for the pants I wear to work, which is an office job where I have to look "business casual" but I'm sitting down all day. Regular belts were really bad, especially with a metal allergy which some cheaper belts could be an issue.

[@drflmd]

I wear Grip 6 daily for work (ER doc). For dressed occasions, i wear Anson belts. Good review buddy !

[@bodan2512]

I have an odd recommendation for a belt to test. The Galco Cobra Tactical belt. I originally bought it to use as a slimline duty belt, but after changing careers I still use it to this day as a carpenter. It uses a specific type of buckle that is similar to a seat belt, which is great for quickly unbuckling. It is also much more ridgid than most belts due to being marketed for concealed carry use.

[@wildturkey9275]

The grip6 belts are awesome. James you were a little light on the fact that they offer a lot of different belt colors to chose from as well as different buckles. And all are interchangeable allowing for many many different styles you can personalize.

[@ShojoBakunyu]

I'm sewing my own versions of these with strapping, snaps, and Velcro. If I use them on the 2 back loops it'll stop gaps and oy place stress on those two loops so if they get weird ill be able to switch to 2 other loops.

[@MarioLotfeCano]

I bought the Grip almost 2 years ago and it's the best buy I've ever made, for real, and I don't even remember how I got into the publicity for that belt but it is for sure the one belt I will die wearing. It never gets loose, it actually looks really cool not having holes so it looks symmetric (that is cool for me, hehe). The best deal about it is that you can get different belt and buckle colors so you can interchange them to end up having a belt for every occasion and combination, and it is really light and easy to put on and take off.

[@MrHammer102]

Great video! I don't have any of the belts you reviewed, but I do have the ratchet one you had on at the start, and I absolutely love it. I will be ordering a few more from Amazon.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

My previous belt used ratcheting, but I won't go back after switching to the grip6. It's more durable and doesn't have that belt end hanging out there if it just misses the best loop. It does take a little more effort to put on and off that the ratchet.

[@rickyn1135]

I use to use those elastic straps with clamps like some suspenders but made small for the fitted sheet,I’d use two on each side to my belt lopes. My main thing and you didn’t mention it,but using manny similar methods to howl pants up; If you have Sewn on button and not riveted,the button button with pop off at any moment! Thank you for this review. PS. A cheaper option also,is a baseball players belt. $8-$10 dollars. It’s all wide elastic,with two ends that you wear like a normal belt. Adjustable and comes in many colors. Someone you waist size can probably use the kids or juniors size. Try it. They’re great.

[@ashtonhatch7145]

Great review. I will say that the Grip6 belt was by far the best looking. I actually work for Grip6 and I make our belts. I wear them exclusively. You should also check out our socks and wallets if you haven't already. It is all made right here in the U.S.A. and the quality is guaranteed.

[@ryancoke777]

I have an idea for those ones that pull the belt loops. There needs to be a solid plastic piece that attaches to the belt loops to hold them straight while the belts are wrapped around them so they don't bend

[@gpturner0924]

When I wore belts, I loved my Grip6. However, I have switched to suspenders. Since nothing goes around your waist and squeezes you where you bend, its unrestrictive and extremely comfortable, and since your pants basically hang on shoulder straps, your pants stay up. No need to keep checking the height of your waistband throughout the day. Belts are now merely a fashion accessory for me now. When I'm wearing a t-shirt, I wear the suspenders underneath to hide them, so that opens me up to wear one of those seatbelt buckle belts from the nerdy franchises I love!

[@neverlookback75]

I backed the Venturi on Kickstarter. I love it, you should check it out. Also you might want to test this on varying size folks and have them report back...as the security of these could vary widely depending on weight.

Own both Grip 6 and Beltbro Titan. Grip 6 for those times I carry extra belt gear. Beltbro for occassions that a tucked shirt isn't required. Beltbro isn't for light fabric pants(ie dress/golf styles). Already tore off two loops.
