Featuring 1'' polyester webbing, which has a nice structured look but is more flexible than the usual (ballistic) nylon webbing used in combat belts and military belts, this one is a very simple and minimalistic belt. I specifically was bothered by the thickness of the Arcteryx Converyr Belt's buckle, and wanted a belt that fits perfectly underneath the buckle of my backpack's hip belt. The simplest solution with an actual buckle was a simple G-hook tension lock closure. Through using an anodised aluminium g-hook, I could use a hard-wearing and lightweight material. The only thing I still want to change in this design is the orientation of the hook - but for this I have to buy customised hardware, and this will be possible next year, I hope.
I am preparinng a few other belt designs, inspired by other makers, experimenting with materials like leather and cloth, and with different closure mechanisms.
