Belt received today (NJ). It is a high quality and well thought out belt. My only concern would be accidental release due to the single button- time will tell whether or not this is actually an issue. The dual layer belt holds weight well even when not using pant loops. Adjustment is a pain, but I understand why it is what it is. It would be nice to have a micro-adjust though.

hubert_cumberdaleAny updates? It sure looks like it would pop open if you bent over wrong and a fold of your pants pressed on it. How stiff's that latch? How's it compare to Austri-Alpine's Cobra buckles, since that's the obvious other choice, here?
DermottThe Carbon Tactics belt has held up well with no incidents of unintentional buckle release. Adding/removing items is still a pain as you have to remove the buckle. It would be nice if either:
  • the male end of the buckle could be removed for adding/removing items onto the belt without messing up the sizing
  • having a visual scale on the back of the belt so you can reinstall consistently without trial and error.
I have no experience with the Austri-Alpine buckles.
