Useful, with flaws
By Nina
I was looking round for a practical yet fashionable utility belt for ages until I hit on this one and thought, 'eureka'! I wear mine every single day and it has proven to do just what I wanted it to: the Warrior (one small pouch, one large pouch, both zip-up) carries my (tiny) wallet, mobile phone, (tiny) notebook, lipstick, pencil, keys, cards, and flashdrive. It leaves my hands free. It puts no strain on my shoulders. I wear it with jeans and with skirts.So why only 3 stars?1) It does not look as trendy or cool as the photos of cool people wearing it would suggest. The sewing isn't elegant; it doesn't look all that 'urban' but a bit hand-made. The seams are clunky. The leather is stiff and not finished on the inside.2) It lacks inside pockets or compartments, so that everything just tumbles around in it, and it sometimes takes quite some time before I find the card or key I'm looking for.3) Worst of all: in the past 2 months, the pouches have come off over 8 times, and the belt more than twice! It is advertised as very secure but I now worry and need to put my hand on it every now and again to assure myself it's still there. It comes off when I get into my car; as soon as a pouch rubs along the door or seat, one of the snaps comes off. And the belt snaps can also come off, when rubbed against something, e.g. when squeezing into a tight space.4) There is no sizing flexibility. The snaps are too far apart to allow for differentiated sizing. When I first got the belt, it fitted well; I used the outer snap and it hugged my hips. Then I joined a gym, worked out and lost some weight, and now it flops around my hips and once, when I was lecturing to a group of students, fell down around my knees!! I adjusted it to the second snap but this is not as comfortable and too tight; it now sits too high on my waist. If this were a belt-style belt with holes and a proper buckle, one could calibrate the fit much better. Or if there were more snaps (the distance is dictated by the width of the pouches but surely this could be improved upon somehow).So, the upshot is: Useful but flawed. And as soon as I find a better product, I'll buy that one! But there isn't anything better just now!

I got one a few years ago and it's still really fashionable and useful.It's a great gift for someone who already has everything!

By J. Kingston
When going out, I always want to look my best and get attention for the right reasons which is why my UUB is a must have when hitting the South Beach hotspots. I can carry cell phone, wallet, smokes, whatever I need without having to stuff my pockets. That gives me plenty of room to shake it on the dancefloor and not worry at all about the losing stuff...the straps and pouches are very secure; better than pockets actually. I wear mine cross-body style. Now I use it for school also as I got the portfolio for Christmas. Great product!
