Simplicity at its finest! The craftsmanship in the buckle is very smooth and super easy to adjust, once familiar with the concept. Trimming the strap is old news for me, as I have been using Patagonia web belts for years. So, since my fatting out of a 34" waist, trimming a 38" to where I wanted, was a snap, or should a say singe. I do believe the whole concept is very cool. I bought a set of three for my brother, and he was not feeling the love. Mainly, because he is simplifying his life, and three more belts were not helping. So, other people will receive them. My thoughts of a critique nature, would be a beefier webbing strap. I like the thin, but it seems too thin sometimes. Maybe a thicker option would be nice. I mean a 1/16 or 1/32 more in the thickness, not width. I am sure this alter the buckle slots and possibly the whole operation. Just a thought. I hope everything works out for Grip6. Thank you for a great product. Regards, mek
