No two trades are the same, and no two setups should be either. The Modular Looped system puts you in control—start with a solid belt, then build it out with interchangeable bags, clip-on accessories, and add-ons.
Need more storage? Add an auxiliary bag. Want your drill right where you need it? Add a High Drill Hook or an Add-On Clip.
Dial in your setup for efficiency, versatility, and the way you actually work.
Your Tools Stay Ready with the Right Bag Placement
Right Side Vs. Left Side
Our Right Side Bags are designed to carry the tools you use in your right hand—hammer, knife, marking tools, etc. The bag layout is focused on tool storage, keeping everything secure but easy to grab.
The layout of our left side bags is focused on fastener storage and any tools you reach for with your left hand like a rafter square, nail puller, punches, chisels, etc. Left Side Bags are built to keep all these things organized and give you the ability to change out the Outer Bag to suit your needs.

Build from the Belt Up
A strong setup starts with the right foundation. Whether you go with the classic Waist Belt, the quick-release Super Belt, or add suspenders for extra support, your belt sets the stage for a rig that stays secure, balanced, and ready for anything.
Your Work. Your Setup. Your Way.

Designed by Trades, for Trades.
Decades on the tools go into every design. From layout to loadout, these rigs are built with real-world experience—tested, refined, and dialed in for efficiency.
No fluff, no gimmicks. Just smart, purpose-driven gear made by tradespeople, for tradespeople.
Built to Last. Designed to Work. Smells Like the Real Deal.
Every stitch, every rivet, every piece of leather—chosen with purpose and built to last. No compromises. No shortcuts. Just rock-solid durability and all-day comfort.
And when you crack open that box? That deep, rich scent of full-grain leather hits you. A reminder that this isn’t some mass-produced, synthetic gear. This is the real deal—crafted for the job, tested in the field, and ready to work.
Premium Leather
We use 7.5–8 oz chrome-tanned hides—nearly twice as thick as work boot leather—treated for water resistance and durability. High-wear areas get reinforced with 10–12 oz retan latigo leather for extra toughness.
Metal
Our hammer loops, tool hooks, and drill clips are built in-house from stainless steel—strong enough for years of abuse. Long D-rings stay upright under load, preventing unwanted movement.
Rivets
Built to last with solid steel rivets locking down critical stress points. Washers reinforce high-stress areas like the rafter square slot for extra durability. Chicago screws make it easy to swap out outer bags and accessories.
Stitching
We use heavy-duty size 277 bonded nylon thread, triple-stitching stress points and reinforcing with rivets to eliminate failure. Thoughtfully placed seams reduce wear, ensuring durability and a perfect break-in over time.

Frequently Asked
Questions
What’s the advantage of a modular tool belt over a stitched-in-place setup?
A modular tool belt gives you the flexibility to build your setup exactly how you want it. Need more fastener storage? Add a bag. Prefer your drill loop higher? Clip it where it works best.
Unlike stitched-in-place setups which are locked in place, modular systems let you tweak and adjust over time as your workflow changes.
How secure are the modular bags? Will they shift or sag?
Modular bags attach using heavy-duty leather loops and Chicago screws, keeping them locked in place while you work. They stay put, but they also give you the freedom to adjust your layout when needed.
If you’re worried about movement, using a well-balanced setup and properly securing each component ensures everything stays dialed in.
Can I add or remove bags as my needs change?
Yes. That’s the beauty of modular. You can swap out fastener bags, add auxiliary pouches, or clip on accessories as your trade or tasks evolve.
The system is designed for adaptability—without forcing you into a one-size-fits-all layout.
What’s the best way to configure a modular belt for my trade?
It depends on what you do. Framers might want large open fastener bags and a front tape pouch, while electricians might prefer dedicated storage for screwdrivers and wire strippers.
We’ve put together trade-specific setups to give you a solid starting point—check out the Shop by Trade page to see what works best for you.
Are modular belts compatible with suspenders?
Yes. If you’re carrying a heavier load, suspenders help distribute weight and reduce strain on your lower back. We offer suspender mounts that attach securely to your modular belt, keeping your setup balanced and comfortable.
How do I attach and adjust the bags on a modular belt?
Bags and accessories attach using leather loops and Chicago screws. To adjust your setup, simply loosen the screws, reposition the bag, and retighten. It’s a straightforward process, but if you need guidance, we’re happy to help.
Do the modular bags work for both left-handed and right-handed setups?
Yes. Unlike stitched-in-place systems (which are built for a dominant side), modular setups let you position tools exactly where you need them, whether you’re left-handed, right-handed, or prefer a symmetrical layout.
Are there weight limits for modular setups?
Technically no, but balance is key. Overloading one side can cause discomfort and throw off efficiency. If you’re carrying a lot of gear, suspenders help distribute weight, and choosing the right mix of bags keeps your setup feeling light and well-balanced.
