A great belt.
Met all expectations. Good, solid, well made battle belt without being to combersome or bulky. Stood up perfectly to 2 back to back 8 hr training days on the range, incorporating movement and fighting positions, including prone, without any deficiencies and at no point became uncomfortable or burdonsome to wear. This was with mid drop OEB holster, 2 pistol mag carriers, 2 5.56 mag carriers, mag dump bag, first aid kit and a small pouch for flashlight & personal items. I recommend & would buy again....

Another great 5.11 product!
Excellent product!! Bought for the wife but sometimes I steal it and use it for myself, hahaha! Belt seems to be true to pant waist size. Materials are excellent in quality. The belt uses a genuine Austri Alpin Cobra buckle. Stitching and MOLLE webbing are solid. Inner Velcro belt was included in the price. The total price was quite a bit cheaper than the overpriced gucci belts out there (I bought this on a Memorial day sale). Doesn't have a D-ring but my wife probably won't be rappelling from a chopper anytime soon!... Show more

Battle Belt
The inner belt makes the belt very comfortable and keeps the belt in place over your belt loops. It will not ride up running, jumping, climbing or going from standing to prone while shooting. The laser cut Molle loops look cheap but they seem to work just fine. The outer belt could be a little thicker and maybe a little wider as well, but it works just fine as it is. The biggest reason I bought this type of two piece belt was the ability of the inner belt to hold the belt in place while doing activities and not having the battle belt to ride up into my plate carrier. It did this and I am very happy with it.... Show more

Disappointed
I would rate this product at a five but the first time I the belt I think I got it too small as I purchased this in the store and the salesman suggested that when buying this particular belt that you need to go a size up and I did just or rather I think I did because unfortunately the inner belt ended up being too short so I went up too a 2XL and the inner belt fits just fine now, a second salesperson I spoke to on the second trip to the Ft Worth location told me that when wearing the inner belt that it’s important for both ends to overlap for the Velcro on the squared off side to work. Thankfully it does but the outer belt leaves a noticeable gap in between the inner and the outer belts. I believe this is due in fact to the lack of enough a tag end to adjust the ...

I believe this is due in fact to the lack of enough a tag end to adjust the “fit” of the outer belt as for when I attempted to do this there was 2 inch gap between the buckle and the front of the inner belt which is a no go in my book as I like to keep my gear neat and tidy. I would be more than willing to change my review to a five star if someone could show me how to fix this problem.... Show more

fantastic battle belt
I love this Battle Belt. People probably need to know what they are getting - this is a Battle Belt that has an inner velcro "belt" and the outer part, where holsters and ammo pouches, etc., are attached to - the outer part has a dual-molle attachment material, which is that kind of thin laser-cut material (or at least feels like it) - I really like this material for battle belts because it is relatively thin. There is also an outer part that you can thread through, which is like a typical nylon type material - see pictures - you ARE able to use that outer part as molle, which came in handy on one thing I mounted to the belt. The belt overall is very sturdy, it doesn't have much "flex" to it, which again I like a lot.So, everyone will probably have preferences ... MoreI love this Battle Belt.

I also have the "Ferro Designs" battle belt which I also like a lot - it is a little thinner and probably not quite as "sturdy" - both battle belts are fantastic, they just have a different balance of features. I couldn't say, personally, which one I prefer- I am actually building up both :)... Show more

Maverick Battle Belt
The Maverick Battle Belt does what it is suppose do with no fuss. I have set mine up in several different configurations and have been pleased with the results each time. The feature I find my favorite is the excess length is under the belt. Currently mine is setup with two pistol mags, two m4 mags, dump pouch, ifak, knife, light, and Dara drop/offset holster for a Glock 19 with Holosun and light. 5.11 processing time was lighting quick....

My Recent Purchase
I personally feel that this belt’s size fit’s perfectly, comfortably, and has plenty of space with molle to customize my rig. So far I’m absolutely loving this belt.As is the case from my previous 5.11 purchases, the stitching and the fabric are both very durable, and I don’t see it coming undone with rough use of the belt. Would absolutely recommend this for anyone looking for a battle/tactical belt.... Show more

Outstanding Duty/Range Belt
I use my Maverick Battle Belt for range practice and as a "duty" belt for work at a correctional facility. I believe the quality and ruggedness of the belt will serve me for a lifetime. It is very convenient to attach MOLLE ready items like a med/tourniquet, radio, OC and hand cuff pouch, OC; shotgun pouch, AR pouches, etc. The belt also allows me to use all my Kydex magazine pouches and pistol holsters with the appropriate belt clip attachments....

So far so good…
I’ve had this for a month or so now. I picked this up over the Labor Day holiday because I couldn’t pass up the price. There are a few major differences between this and my prior nylon duty belt:This belt is shorter top to bottom so it already seems to be making a HUGE difference for my back and with the comfort of just wearing it.The buckle is metal with a very secure and quiet latch, unlike my previous polymer buckles that always squeaked when you walked.Everything from my duty holster, Asp, mag pouch, …etc fits and rides great.I absolutely love this belt with one exception and that is that the buckle can be a bit finicky when trying to take it off, but that’s it, the only negative. I highly suggest this to anyone looking for a great duty belt!... Show more

The quality of the belt
The quality of the belt seems fine, however, it is not true to size. I have worn a 5.11 Maverick Assaulters belt for years. I ordered the same size in the Maverick Battle Belt and it is too big, even with my duty gear attached. The belt sizing is supposed to be correct for my waist size, but the smallest setting on the outer belt leaves enough room for my hand to fit in the extra space between the inner and outer belts. I returned it for a size exchange and 5.11 received it a week ago, but it still has not processed.... Show more
