My two new grips six belts are not as good as I had hoped for. The quality is good. The strap is thick and long lasting and the buckle is made of quality metal. However, it does not grip for long. The belts came with no instructions, so I think I’m using it the only way I can see it would work. I put the belt on and on day three I figured out the easiest way to get it tight, only trouble is it won’t stay tight. You have to re-tighten the belt 10 times throughout the workday. There’s also a large loop in the end you feed through the buckle big enough to put your thumb or finger in. This belt would probably grip well if it fell into a crease. You could probably make this crease after heavy use. Then the belt would be the same as any belt with holes because it would fall directly to that crease. He wouldn’t be able to move it around. I really wanted to give a better review. I’m not trying to knock grip six but this belts not working out for me.
