Ratchet Belt Buckle Replacement Strap Leather 35MM Slide Click

Great product and great price.

This is the second time I have bought these buckles. The first one lasted about two years. I wish there were replacement parts to fix them. They have a great design, and it is easy to install the straps. They stay on until the buckle gives up, and they are easy to lock on/off when you wear them. If you have multiple straps you can change them at will.

Nice looking buckle.

Better then expected, fast shipping. I great replacement for the original buckle. Easy intall

Nice item

It’s hard to complain about something when the price is so low, so I’m reviewing this with that expectation in mind. Obviously you can’t compare these to $100+ belts. So if you’re expecting the highest quality belts, these won’t be for you. I’ve bought a lot of these ratcheting style belts over the years since they function so much better than traditional ones. They’re so much easier to get the perfect fit, last much longer due to the inside ratcheting strip instead of the normal holes that can get stretched, etc. What I measured: 35.3mm/1.38” wide. Fits all of my 1.375” buckles. 4.3mm/0.16” thick. 112mm/4.45” from tip of belt to start of ratcheting strip plastic. 92mm/7.625” full length of ratcheting strip. This belt isn’t great in terms of the placement of the ratcheting strip. It starts much further (at around 4.5”) from the tip of the belt than versions you’ll find being sold these days from other brands. On three other brands I measured, the ratcheting strip starts between 2.5-2.75” from the tip (the end you won’t be cutting off). What this means when wearing is that at the loosest possible setting, instead of having around 2.5” of the belt going past the buckle keeper, on these the minimum will be around 4.5”. This effectively reduces the adjustability, since you don’t want to be wearing a belt with too much extra material going past the buckle. That looks sloppy. And since these types of ratcheting belts are cut to fit, of course it’s better to be able to leave on as much length as possible, because once you cut it, there’s no going back. If you need more length later, you’d just have to buy a new belt strap. I usually like to leave around 4-6” past the buckle keeper. On this belt, that means I’d only be able to leave an extra 1.5” before the end starts getting too long, while on the others I’d be able to leave an extra 3.5”. That’s a big difference in adjustability if you need it later, especially if your weight tends to fluctuate. Also - the bolstering/backing on these belts doesn’t seem too strong. Even after I’ve had them hanging on a belt hanger for over a month, they still have bends in their shape. See pics of these belts compared to another brand’s. Other ratcheting belt straps form smoother lines, these seem to get bent out of shape and stay that way. Another way I can tell the material on these is weaker is when I’m attaching the buckle to the belt and putting the teeth through. On other brands’ belts, it can be difficult since the material feels much stronger. On these the teeth go through quite easily, so I’m not sure how long they’ll last. With those drawbacks being said, for what these are I still think they’re pretty good. I don’t see any other ratcheting belts that come in the styles that these do, and that is a plus. Especially when they’re at a decent price. The Brown 3 belt is definitely more of a reddish wine/burgundy than a brown. I included pics of it next to a couple dark brown belt straps for reference.

Excellent product, exactly what I was hoping for.

Well crafted and very nice looking, however, will not hold tight on a nylon belt.

Very Good Product

I ordered two items, 1. Was genuine leather 2. Fax Leather (not real leather)

A very nice belt buckle that accents my 1 3/8 wide ratchet belt.

I like the system, it works well and I have had no issue so far

Not a bad product
