Bought at a store in Kalamazoo, MI. Tried 2 different belts, all had material failure in the buckle mechanism, IMO due to a bad design and apparently a severe lack of product testing. Carhartt is all over my wardrobe, but I probably wouldn't wear a belt from them if they paid me to! I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE A RESPONSE FROM CARHARTT, THIS PRODUCT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OFF OF SHELVES, HARDWORKING PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE TIME TO MESS WITH THIS KIND OF FAILURE.

The belt itself seems of very good quality. The buckle, on the other hand, doesn't hold tight. Every bend, deep breath or anything makes the buckle slip and loosen because there are no "teeth" inside the buckle to hold the belt so unless you are using the belt as only decoration, this doesn't hold your pants up or tight.

looks great functiuon is terrible dont breath or move or buckle come undone terriable design that way very dissapointed

Love Carhartt been wearing for 25 years. Simple fact this belt does not work as a belt. Loosens immediately after adjusting. DO NOT BUY THIS BELT. Wish I had read reviews BEFORE i bought it. Surprised Carhartt continues to sell this failure of a product. Makes me reconsider their ethics.

Worn half a day and the belt lock started slipping and wouldn’t stay tight the rest of the day. To say I’m disappointed would b an understatement, I’ve been buying/wearing carhartt for 35 years and expected much more from a belt labeled as”heavy duty”. Wish I had read the reviews before I bought it

I love the look of this belt. And the it seems super durable. I really like everything about this belt except one thing. It doesn’t do what a belt is supposed to do. Every time I snug it up it slips and immediately loosens itself. I’m extremely disappointed in this belt and won’t be wearing it anymore. I must’ve had to re tighten it 50 plus times today to keep my drawers up and the crack put away. That’s not acceptable. This is the first carhartt item that has ever let me down.

I bought this belt last week. I have worn it for three days. It let’s loose all the time. I switched from a double hole leather belt. I bought this because I figured it wouldn’t stretch like the leather one. Well I will be going back. I work on crushers so I am constantly moving and constantly readjusting this bet. The clip doesn’t hold it well enough

buckle will not hold..what good is it??

looses as you walk

I bought one of these cause I'm a loyal carhartt customer for more than 15 years now.this belt is a rip off,only lasted 3 weeks or so i think little less than that.

The axel on the buckle is soft, it will bend eventually, causing the belt to slip. Grip 6 has the ideal buckle, that will work with belt, if you want to get more use out of your belts. They also have work belts, and they have a composite one piece buckle that you don't have to take off in the airport. Pretty snazzy, although I haven't tried the metal buckle yet, should still work. I you like a more conservative look, turn the belt over and put he type on the inside. That much advertising for Carhart they should give the belt away for free.

Don’t buy this belt I bought it and every time you get in or out of a truck or bend over it loosens and dose not stay tight at all

When testing it in store it stayed locked in place and thought I finally found the belt I was looking for. I'm now on my 3rd belt. First 2 the lever latch got slightly bent out of shape and rendered useless. As long as your standing or sitting without moving, thumbs up. If you work, bend over, wear any kind of other tool belt, climbing belt, or your fat pushes the latch lever it begins to loosen. The end of the latch lever locks in place flush against the belt, and the slightest push releases it. Nothing like being belted off on the pole and feeling your pants loosening.

I use it as a dedicated tool belt, i keep my tool bag on it and, i also use it to hold my trap shooting pouch. it works perfect because you can adjust it to any length and it stays in place.

Don't waste your money on this. The buckle doesn't work properly, then fell off after less that a day of use. Didn't keep my pants up for a minute. This is the only time i've ever had anything bad to say about carhartt after being a customer for years.

The buckle does not hold. The military ones I wore in the Army
Had like little teeth to grip. You just walk and it comes loose.

The buckle, better described a cinch in this case, has no grip and continuously loosens. The ani-fray end pad is too thick to fit back out of the buckle. The Carhartt branding wears away quickly and looks sloppy.

The best part of the belt is the belt material itself. It is very sturdy and has held up to everyday use after I replaced the buckle with a new design.

I've used the belt twice and the buckle just pulls loose. Every time I squat it pulls loose. Sometimes it even falls off when putting on or taking off the belt. Pretty disappointed in the $30+ I spent and already looking into getting a replacement buckle.

Belt was bought for me for Christmas 2019 by my fiancée, Have only been wearing it for about 3-4 weeks now, and its slipping loose like many other people are commenting about. Love Carhartt as a whole, but the design of this belt leaves a lot to be desired. Very upset about this as its a nice material, the buckle just doesnt have good enough teeth to hold it.

I had the belt a week and it stopped staying tight. I had to use a folded up piece of paper and put it in the buckle to use the belt. And then shortly after the buckle just started falling off periodically. Not to happy with the belt

Nice belt. Would be better if they had some that was smaller for us smaller men. I wear a 30 and a 34 belt is way to big but it’s their smallest size

Belt does not stay tight. One squat and my pants start falling. Wast of money I would like a refund but do not have my original recipt

Straight out of the store, the belt didn't hold tension for more then 5 minutes. Because the mechanism that grabs the belt has no teeth or serration, it has no real way of holding the belt in place, which is why it constantly slips. But other than it pretty much not being a belt, it looks good and the webbing is a good material.

I purchased the Black Signature Webbing belt on 11/27/19 for use as a belt on work jeans while doing work on my own home. I am retired for 8 years from owning and operating a concrete construction firm. In earlier years in the business i also worked in the field and had a few Carhartt clothing products which all functioned magnificently and still do. This belt is another story however. After 3 weeks of weekend only use while rebuilding my deck the belt no longer stayed tight when fastened and became a constant annoyance having to refasten every ten minutes. During the 4th week of use the buckle came apart and it has been sitting with the belt on my desk awaiting the written complaint I decided to write to Carhartt about this product. Well here it is! After using Carhartt overalls and other work clothing which I purchased over 40 years ago and still use to this day I am extremely disappointed that they are now making their products or at least this one in a foreign country and expect American workers to accept this inferior product. The company has joined like so many other American Corporations that owe their very existence to this country and it's citizens in the apparently acceptable practice of having their products made by workers from another country who produce inferior work for sale in this country. Carhartt should amend their practice of doing this or maybe American workers should no longer buy their products.
But that is just one American customer's opinon and they won't give a hoot in hell about it.
Sincerely Yours,
Mark D.

when I bought this belt it looked well made . The first week it was great but now the buckle keeps slipping so all day long I adjusting it.

Every time I kneel down or even breath deep, the buckle loosens and does not stay locked in place. I readjust the belt all day long

I bought this belt thinking that I would give Carhartt one more chance to prove themselves on the quality they claim their products have and yet again him completely disappointed not only in the product but how Carhartt has been conducting themselves as of late. This belt does not hold its position. The belt will slip consistently around your waist and not hold your pants up. When you start getting into thermals and t-shirts and tucking things into your pants again you would expect a belt to hold everything in place this belt does not. much like my previous issues with their thermals the sizes they say they are they are not those sizes. They shrink when they say they want and Carhartt completely does not stand behind it product guarantees Norwich product at all. When I've had issues with both and contacted Carhartt for a resolution the resolution was "too bad it's yours deal with it."at this point from now on as a contractor I no longer have faith in Carhartt and will no longer be buying any of their product as none of their products seems to last and they don't honor their guarantees.

I like the look and style of the belt with the webbed belt and adjustable lock however after a few weeks of use, the belt no longer holds tight it constantly needs readjusting which defeats the purpose of a belt. Have been truly impressed with all other carhartt gear, just not this belt. The belt turned out to be a real failure unfortunately.

I love it, but after using it on and off for about a month, it no longer functions at holding my pants for more than a few steps. I'm the type that can fix most things but its design just isn't fixable or tweekable. I think the belt material is a tad to thin.

The belt worked fine for a few days then it was constant readjusting it just won't stay locked I thought it was just a bad lock maybe but a friend of mine also purchased the same belt and had the same problem neither one of us uses the belt anymore

Belt worked when I purchased it but was haveing problems with taking it off the end was catching all the time had to yank on it over and over to get it off. I think they should of crimped a end on it smooth not put a leather end that turns up and catches metal.So was going to call and complain but just been trying to deal with it but now I noticed the letters on belt r coming off and I guess that’s because you slide it over and over the sticker so I think they should of embroiled Them into the belt so that didn’t happen . I also now it started slipping no staying in place have to repeatedly unlock and relock it over and over again. They didn’t make the metal peace long anofe to really Bite into the belt needed teeth on it to stop Slipping . So there it is good luck hope it will work better for you but probably not.

Good quality but after 3 months of use it’s no longer holds tight. This was my favorite belt until this started to happen.

This belt really sucks. After about a month it no longer hold tight. Also the leather end is so thick is gets stuck in the buckle when trying to remove it. Don’t waste your money, because I did.

This is a waste of money. First time putting it on and the buckle broke. Looks cool but is worthless.

When I came across this belt I thought "kewl!!" in less than a week, my britches were sagging , looked like I "just got out" This is the first poor quality carhart item I ever bought. It sucks big time, I did not see that coming. You will have to pry my coveralls, overalls and my carhartt vest off my dead body but this belt was in the trash yesterday

Terrible. In my opinion a belt has one job...this belt fails. It will only hold my pants up if I don’t bend or move. If there is any resistance on the buckle...it BUCKLES and is now too loose to hold up my pants. Fail fail fail, I was excited about this belt too. I gave it 2 weeks before it was sent off to donations(sorry).

I like this belt a lot. It goes well with shorts and jeans. Unlike some belts of this style, it doesn't loosen too much during the course of the day. It looks cool too.

Wore for a month and it now will no longer hold tight. My pants falling down in the middle of the work day.

I was really excited for this belt however the buckle can not hold the nylon webbing in place. The belt slides at the slightest pressure and no longer functions like a belt. Save your money and buy a different belt. This is the first Carhartt product I haven't liked and returned. It looks good but doesn't well.

Have only worn this belt twice and the buckle broke. Won't hold the belt tight in place

Very nice Bellt by the bucket is trash

Like many others have said, the buckle needs to be looked at. Everything i sit the belt gets loose.

A great belt that should stand the test of time like all Carhartt items. Very well made.

Great belt but the buckle needs to be fixed. Just like the other reviews, mine just started coming loose as I bend down as well. Never stays tight. The belt will be fine when standing but once you bend down you can feel the belt slide right in the buckle and it becomes loose. Carhartt did you fix this problem? If so please let us know!

Bought this belt but doesn’t stay tight. As soon as I cinch it. It comes loose.
I’m a maintenance worker so I do a lot of bending and lifting. At this point the belt is for looks cause it doesn’t stay tight. If I could return this belt I would.

I bought this belt at the carhartt store because it looked good and felt rugged enough to last a reasonable amount of a couple years daily work use. It's not a cheap belt mind you. I am an hvac service tech. Disappointed with the product overall. 3 months and it still looks good but will not stay cinched tight with any bending or sitting. Nearly useless for me as I'm almost 90% bending and or sitting and driving. Needs a redesign to make the clasp cinch and stay. Way to expensive for 1 good month of use. Buy the carharrt journeyman leather. Lasted 7 years. It's worth the money

The belt is awesome but the buckle... it doesn't hold the belt tight. It slips every time I bend down. I love this belt but the inside of the buckle needs ridges to grip the belt or it just keeps sliding. So disappointed as it's an awesome belt. I have to return it because it's no use of it doesn't keep my pants up.

I purchased this and was very disappointed as it would never stay tight. The camo color was great and liked the material, but it is not any good if your pants keep falling down. I am very surprised that the QA department did not catch this. Very disappointed to receive such poor quality from a trusted brand with the Carhartt name.

Belt slips constantly buckle broke after 3 weeks of intermittent use

Bought this belt a few weeks ago because I wanted web material as an alternative to my leather belts.
Worst purchase I could have made!
As others have mentioned, the belt slips loose after being pulled and buckled down. Constantly have to readjust and it’s so frustrating .
Can’t keep my pants up and in place with this belt.
Highly dissatisfied. Would rate zero stars for quality if I could.
