What is a Ratchet Belt ?

A ratchet belt is a relatively new innovation that improves the function of a traditional belt. A ratchet belt buckle utilizes a spring-loaded mechanism and hidden track system for improved adjustment capability. As we all know, a traditional belt uses a simple buckle with a post and leather belt with a series of 5-7 holes (spaced one-inch apart) to adjust with. This means having to adjust in one inch increments, which typically causes a belt to be either too tight or too loose. A ratchet belt solves this problem by eliminating belt holes. That's right - NO more belt holes. Instead, ratchet belts use nylon track (with teeth like notches) sewn into the back of the leather belt, hidden from sight (see photos below). This track contains between 30-40 adjustment notches in small 1/4" increments. The ratchet belt user can snug the belt to their exact waist size every time and adjust 1/4" at a time, when needed. A small release and adjustment lever is typically located under the buckle and is easy to operate. The overall result is a greatly improved fit. 

It should be noted that Trakline belts use a 10" long track with over 40+ size positions. Most other betls use a 7" track with 30 positions. The Trakline belt is 30% more adjustable than it's competitors.
