Old-Orange Mud
After one marathon .....closer to a 4.5 star
What I like about this belt is that it holds 6 nutrition packets. I needed 8 for the race so it was perfect with one more in each pocket. Issues I had:
(1) In order to tighten the belt, I had to take it off, make an adjustment, check it until I had it right. The good news is that once it was set, it did not move even fully loaded.
(2) The 3 loops on each side are not adjustable so even though they ended up on my side, I could not move them out of the way
(3) The belt itself is a bit narrow and in order to remain secure, doesn't have as much flex as my SPI belt - so both good and bad. Stay firm while running but also cause a bit of irritation on my waist from the edge of the band - likely had it a tad too tight but as I said above, it is a challenge getting the belt adjusted exactly right.
Still the belt did what I needed and with a few adjustment will suit my needs just fine.
I would have chose 4.5 stars but had to select 4 vs 5.
