Five Star Reviews: | 55% The material is really nice and the secret compartment for money was a unique ... March 23, 2017 This belt is really well made. The material is really nice and the secret compartment for money was a unique design that made it roomier for more currency without looking bulkier. Very nice...I recommend this product. Good Value, Good Quality Belt March 17, 2017 So far so good. I've had this belt for a few weeks now and am wearing it as my everyday belt. It looks good and is comfortable and has held up well. The real test will be to see how it is a year from now though. But it's been great so far. A note about sizing. I wear a size 36 pants for the waist size and ordered a size 38 in this belt and it is perfect size wize. Keep your cash safe! March 15, 2017 Works perfectly for its purpose and looks like a regular belt. Used it during a trip to store money and passport copy and it gave me the security of keeping a subset of my money in a safe place. Holds a lot of Money! February 17, 2017 Good belt. Solid construction Holds about 15 US bills without being obvious.Looks like a regular belt not like a belt made as a money belt which I regard as a safety feature.My only fault -- and I was warned -- was that this comes with bright shiny nickle hardware. I could not get brass (which I prefer) and had to order a belt buckle separate. Get bigger size! Works great! February 24, 2016 It looks decent and looks like an ordinary belt after putting money in the zipper. The only issue is the size, order bigger than your waist, despite the seller's instructions. I wear a size 34, I ordered the 36, after reading the reviews about fitting, and it barely has enough slack to tuck (I used the 2nd to last notch). Other than that, the belt feels great. Great March 28, 2014 This is my 3rd (and maybe last) Dress/Money Belt. Unlike the other two it seems to be real leather. Smart looking and you'd never know it has the hidden zip compartment. it easily holds 5-10 bills plus copies of Drivers Licence & Passport. We travel a lot in the USA & abroad and its a comfort knowing that we have backup cash & documents in case of a loss.A tip. the website says to order a belt length one size bigger than pant size. I found it better to order 2 sizes bigger. I wear 36" pants and I ordered a 40" belt which is just right. | 75% Lots of room and extremely thin enough to ensure privacy! September 24, 2017 Purchased this for an anticipated trip around the world for 2018. I have taken it across the MX border from the US. I had it under my clothes and kept a majority of my money and CC along with my passport. When I was standing in line to get back across the border and reached inside to get my passport, my Dad was surprised when he saw it! There are many deep pockets that you can place a phone as large as an I7+ (which I have) with ease. I will definitely purchase one for my husband for our upcoming trip! so far the money belt is working just fine for my husband September 14, 2017 so far the money belt is working just fine for my husband. He is on a trip right now and says it is working just fine. You can check back with me in 5 days & I'll give you an update. He will be wearing it in a very tropical, hot area. That will be the big test for him as to comfort. Conceal your valuables August 29, 2017 Bought for trip to India. I felt safe walking in the slums as this was concealed under my clothing. However, if you are going to a hot country/place, expect to feel sweat gather underneath this. A bit disgusting, but it didn't smell after hours of slum venturing. It held my passport, money, and some smaller flat objects. Great Product and Value June 9, 2017 Great product and value. It can be worn high across your midsection, or at waist level (default). I used this 18 days in Europe and it worked out great. I love the money belt! June 6, 2017 The belt is perfect for my needs. It holds passport, cash, credit cards. No need to carry a purse, I just pack a small one in my suitcase.The best part it's RFID and you cannot beat the price and quality!. ID cards in one location and easy removal. I would recommend covering it up April 30, 2017 Used it during my travel overseas in place of a purse (I used after destination arrival). Very convenient at the airport, all my important travel documents, passports, and ID cards in one location and easy removal. I would recommend covering it up, I my have looked a little bit like a tourist. Happy travels. |
Four Star Reviews: | 21% Nice belt October 21, 2016 I am about a 31" and ordered the 34". I am still on the last notch or two, so I probably should have ordered even bigger. It does run small. I was hoping for a bit thicker belt, but it was pliable enough to fit dollar bills folded in 3rds lengthwise. It looks really nice and will do the trick. A nicely made practical belt. September 9, 2016 I bought a black and a brown. My waist is 32, so I ordered 34. The belt fits me very well and appear to be well made. I hope my waistline doesn't expand; otherwise I'll be out of luck as I'm using the last hole of the belt.1. The brown one was shipped via Amazon Prime but the black one was shipped direct, costing $1.00 more after adding the freight. They arrived two days apart.2. The brown one has an additional leather loop that I like as it will hold excess belt length in the event the belt loop of the pants is too far away. The leather loop was stapled together, cheap looking and tacky, probably won't last long.3. The black one has NO additional leather loop. I wonder it was overlooked by accident.I wish the seller, Walter3, will send one to me, if it is supposed to have one.4. The money pocket is zippered, about 20 inches long. I tri-fold, lengthwise, hundred-dollar bills (US dollar) and line three bills end-to-end to stuff them inside the pocket. The maximum I can stuff were 12 bills or ($1200). One reviewer claimed to have $3,000 inside the pocket. I would like to learn how the dollar bills were folded to stuff that much without making the belt look too obvious for a money belt..5. I'll put both to use for my vacation trip next month and provide update after the trip. Good belt. July 14, 2015 First the good, why I gave 4 stars. All I wanted was a stylish casual comfortable belt that fits. Got it, looks and feels good and I love it. Now why it's missing the 5th star: Yes, it has a well hidden zipper pouch on the inner part of the belt, but it was darn right impossible to fit my drivers license in there or my ATM card. You might be able to hide a couple of dollar bills, but you really have to fold them very small. So far I have found no use for the inner zippered pouch, good thing I don't actually need that feature; and the belt itself is a good belt at a reasonable price. The belt itself is amazing! It looks great and serves its purpose well March 18, 2015 The belt itself is amazing! It looks great and serves its purpose well. If you do not over stuff it no one will ever know that it is a money belt. However, I had a horrible experience with the shipping. I ordered it a month before a month long trip and only got it two months after getting back! It took 4 months total to get to me!!! So order early with this one. Well made, but not a stiff belt February 25, 2015 Nice belt, well made. But, I like a stiff belt and this is maybe semi-stiff, like 3/5. It is also like an inch short. It fits, but only on the next to last hole. According to the instructions, it should have fit the middle 3rd hole. I like the engraving, the stitching is well done and the buckle is not flimsy but has a good feel to it (not light in weight) and a good finish. I would recommend this belt to everyone, except if you want a fairly stiff belt. Peace of mind. July 11, 2014 Bought this to take on a recent trip to Ecuador. It's a heavy-duty, quality belt...with room to conceal about ten bills for extra security if you fold them correctly. I'd buy this again. | 14% I liked it. Carried it/wore it for a month while ... July 6, 2017 I did not have the occasion to test this item as regards their RFID Blocking claim, but as far as comfort, fit and functionality, I liked it. Carried it/wore it for a month while traveling in SE Asia, no issues. Cool lil' fanny pack July 5, 2017 Easy to use and convenient. I especially like the key carabiner to clip the keys to our rental car. It made it easy to keep track of them while we were out and about. We were also able to stash our phones in it while walking around so we could easily pull them out if we wanted to take pics (makes it a little heavy but not unbearable). Only reason I'm giving it a 4-star is b/c I wish it had another smaller zipped pocket on the inside of one of the other ones to push folded cash and/or credit cards. It makes me a little nervous having them loose in there while we're pulling things in and out of it. I like it. May 21, 2017 Have not used it yet, but it seems very sturdy and well built. Has room for all I need when traveling, but isn't big and bulky. It was comfortable and was well hidden underneath my blouse or sweater May 19, 2017 The Zero Grid Money Belt is exactly what I expected. It was comfortable and was well hidden underneath my blouse or sweater. Phone, 2 passports, room key, credit cards, and cash all fit with no problem. I wear glasses, and even my small glasses case was too bulky for the belt. If you have a spare jacket pocket for bulky items, the belt will work well for you. Well constructed and the largest, most spacious but reasonably ... June 29, 2016 Well constructed and the largest, most spacious but reasonably priced one available. Only recommendation for improvement would be that the passport and credit card compartments could be a bit larger as in the very hot, humid, sweaty and often confusing conditions of traveling it is most times difficult to carefully replace them to their original safe location. A plus for it is that due to its impermeable construction the documents stay dry in those aforementioned confusing conditions. Good as advertised, if a tad tight. November 7, 2015 Used this finally over the past week on a trip to the Dominican Republic. My only complaint is the belt size could be larger. I'm not overweight by any means (6feet tall, 220lbs) but I jad to have the belt almost all the way out to fit comfortably. A larger man or woman would be out of luck.That said, it was convenient and held plenty of items - paasport, paperwork, money, cards, small note book and pen. Did the job well. |
Three Star Reviews: | 9% Works as advertised July 24, 2017 I wear 36-38 pants, ordered a 40" belt, and it fit in the first hole. If I had to do it again, I wold have ordered slightly larger. The belt itself is wider than my normal belt - which I suppose is to be expected as it needs to actually hold things. That said I had one pair of pants where the belt loops were too small to fit the belt. I would not wear this belt for comfort, but it did its job on a trip. nice product if all you want to do is secure ... July 7, 2017 nice product if all you want to do is secure is paper money, guess I just useit as a belt. Middle of the road money belt. July 28, 2016 I got a decent money belt, but not a really good or great money belt. The way it is made a person could tell that it is a money belt by looking at it when it is worn unless you stuff it with $20's all the time. The point of a money belt is to not be noticed as wearing a money belt. Good color, leather, stitching and hardware, but just lacking in the belt design. It's just OK July 10, 2016 Leather is low grade. Lumpy looking. Bought this for a trip to Europe. Will probably work for what it is intended, but I'm not confident that it will last with long term use. Doesn't hold more than 3 or 4 bills, which have to be folded several times. Size runs small. Based on other reviews I ordered a 38 ( I wear a 36 waist). Only buckles in first hole. If you order go at least 2 sizes bigger than normal. Glad I got this with AMEX points, so I didn't pay real money for it. I think the other belt would have worked just fine for a lot less since its not an every ... February 11, 2016 Quality product but expensive. Bought this item instead of another that cost have the price based on reviews.I think the other belt would have worked just fine for a lot less since its not an every day use item for me.Be sure you order two size larger then your pant waist size. 34W get 36W belt and so on, might even consider a 38W, mine fits on the second or third hole towards belt end. | 7% Shop around first March 12, 2017 Paid too much. Was in a hurry and didn't have time to shop. Found a comp one later for about 15.00. This one is nice; just paid for brand name. I don't want to right a bad review because there is nothing really wrong with this ... August 16, 2016 I don't want to right a bad review because there is nothing really wrong with this for some people. For my husband who is a weight lifter it was way too small. I tried it and could only get 2 of our 3 passports in it and nothing else. I am a slight person and we should have been able to fit more..It is well made and sturdy just know it cannot hold much. It is ok, but don't like elastic band July 14, 2016 Don't like the elastic band, would have preferred a stiff one, gives me a better safety feeling. The noise is not a problem.Will be using it on my next travelling. |
Two Star Reviews: | 7% I have had a leather money belt for years and was very satisfied with it November 4, 2017 When I received (October 2017) this belt, it was coiled tightly. When uncoiled, it resulted in vertical puckering all across the back of the belt. I thought perhaps it would improve after being hung up for a while. Nothing changed. I have had a leather money belt for years and was very satisfied with it. Upon closer examination, I have some concerns about this belt. Although the vendor states that the belt is bovine leather, under magnification, it appears the backing is a different material. Also, the backing is twice the thickness of the outside (whereas outside and backing of my old belt were nearly the same thickness and material). This belt is significantly thicker (35%) than by old belt making it more difficult to fit into belt loops as well as making it stiffer. I feel the puckering could come from either the outside being much thinner than the backing or the material of the backing does not have the same flexibility as the outside. I also feel the thin leather on the outside of the belt would bluge with anything more than a few bills in the zipper pocket. I am generally disappointed with this product. However, I did like the longer zipper pocket. Cheaply made August 23, 2016 The pocket is a good size to hide money, but the belt is very cheaply made. I looks like it's going to come apart and I have not even wore it yet. Next time use better material and charge me a few extra dollars. I don't think it's made out of leather. I think it's made out of some other material. Nice enough belt - but very limited storage that is hard to get into July 23, 2016 The belt itself is reasonable quality. The amount of storage space is tiny and getting anything into it (even a couple of $20 bills) is s pain. For this reason I doubt I will ever use the storage. Get what you pay for. June 11, 2016 You get what you pay for , mostly. Ordered a brown somewhat stylish belt. Got a burgundy cheap belt with a really long narrow zipper. The leather belt holder wouldn't even allow the belt in. Apparently its cheap staples made it too tight. Stitching and seal was cheap and black! Never again from that company. | 2% Not much fits. August 3, 2017 Returned it. Not much fits, after putting things in it, it felt very bulky. Very small in size and is made for a small ... April 26, 2017 Very small in size and is made for a small person's waist under a 32" ! Too snug, my waist is only a 36". This was perfect, except my cell phone gets to hot to ... August 23, 2016 This was perfect, except my cell phone gets to hot to carry inside and now the seams are coming apart.....used 4 or 5 times.... would not buy again or recommend RFID doesnt work because of single layer RFID blocking . October 18, 2015 I just bought this and sorry to say this has failed RFID test .reason is , This is only one layer RFID pouch. This is very simple to understand that if you want to block RFID rays you have to put your credit card in a pocket where it has double layer RFID blocking material.But this has RFID material just from one side . doesn't make sens at all.A part from this pouch is really nice with good qualityNo use and I kind of loose my money. |
One Star Reviews: | 8% Total Garbage!!! September 9, 2017 Complete Garbage.......first time my husband put it on right before an overseas trip, the tongue broke completely off!! So, useless!!! Leather (I doubt it is real) is so cheap can't even use it for a strap. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM ATITLAN!! Amazon must do a better job of checking who they are selling for! This is my second belt of this type. After ... September 5, 2017 This is my second belt of this type. After only three months of wearing this belt, the metal clasp snapped in two. I have never had that happen with a belt before and the first one lasted for over a year. it really poor quality belt August 24, 2015 it really poor quality belt. . smell bad and back money pocket is tiny and narrow. totally not worth the money. 4" smaller than advertised, you-pay-shipping return policy. DON'T BOTHER! May 9, 2015 Awful, as others have said, the belt is too small. I wear 34 pants, and 34 belts, I ordered a 34 but cannot even buckle this belt! I used the online sizer, I measured, but it's way too small. I really think I'd need to order a 38 for a good fit ( a good fit would be the middle hole on a belt with my 34" waist).What really sucks is I need to pay return shipping to get my money back. THAT'S CRAP! I didn't order the wrong size, the product itself is the wrong size. At the end of the day, I will lose at least 6 bucks to return a belt that I can't wear!I will never order anything from this company again since they will not take care of this situation.Edit to add: you now have the option of having this fulfilled by Amazon Prime. Use it! Also, do what the others suggest and add 2"-4" on your measured waist. Don't go by the guide unless it's updated to reflect how it really fits (Currently it states that a size 34 belt works for a 34" measured waist) But, be aware, this is not a durable belt, as other mentioned it degrades quite quickly.Have a great day! | 2% Strange flesh color, black zippers and belt (for a ... August 12, 2017 Strange flesh color, black zippers and belt (for a money belt things should blend in and unobvious as possible), belt too short for even 42" waist, backing material stiff, doesn't breath, and crackles when flexed People will hear you coming January 15, 2017 I don't like how "crinkly" and loud this belt is. I held onto it too long to be able to return it now and am really disappointed since I pulled it out of the packaging to get ready for my trip. Bummer. False advertising no RFID blocking. August 3, 2016 False advertising. No RFID blocking does not work. Tested RFID scanning on access cards. I can only assume these are paid fake reviews. One Star July 24, 2016 Very small compared to what pictures project to be able to carry is not possible No way I can recommend this July 18, 2016 Very poorly made product. The product was shipped to me defective. There was a 2 inch split on the seam when I inspected the money belt. No way I can recommend this manufacturer Very disappointed! April 13, 2016 I don't write many negative reviews but this thing is awful. I received it today and when I took it out of the box it makes a crinkling noise like paper if you even pick it up. I was sure I had missed some of the packing materials - but no, this thing is actually made of a kind of plastic that makes a REALLY loud crackling noise every time you move it. I can't believe they would have chosen to construct it out of this material. I put it on for two minutes and it was already driving me crazy because it is stiff makes a noise every time you move. I couldn't stand it for two minutes let alone wearing it all day. I don't know how this could have gotten so many positive reviews, usually Amazon reviews are more reliable. I would send it back but I just don't have time to right now. By the way the loud material is on the side closest to your body so it has nothing to do with any RFID blocking. |
