This is my second purchase of the Stanley Tool Apron. (The first was purchased outside of the UK a year ago and this review is of that item.). I am a 31" waist and I can report that I have not had any issues with sizing. I wear the apron on a daily basis and have it fully loaded with my electrical tools and to date it has performed superbly - no loose stitching and no tears. I have an additional Stanley tool pouch and a Gorilla Hook on the same belt. The only downside is that as the pouches are stitched onto the belt and therefore not removeable, I cannot put the Gorilla Hook on the belt and have had to get imaginative in how to fit it to the belt.

I love this tool belt.The bucket has a fast release and the belt is easy to adjust to my 36 inch waist. With the buckle at the front, the belt is very comfortable and saves a lot of time and effort carrying tools up and down ladders.The metal holder for a hammer is a great idea as it makes returning the hammer to the belt much easier than attempting to get the tool into a leather loop. There is also a perfectly sized side pocket that fits my Bosch electric screwdriver.Construction is excellent with rivets and strong stitching. I haven’t used it that much though so if anything fails I’ll update this review.There are also some loops for long shaft screwdrivers and a closed loop for a smaller terminal driver.

I bought it as an advanced DIY guy, so my review should be taken in this context.This is NOT product durable enough to last daily building site activities.Then, you have to be very naive to assume that something costing 20% (at most) of proper gear is going to be equally good?There is enough adjustment for smaller waists (i originally said it was not possible. I was wrong. It is possible. I guess my belt clasp was stuck somehow).Pictures are misleading. It looks like you could adjust position of pouches but is is NOT possible.For the money and DIY work it should be good enough.Any serious pro should spend money on stronger belt with more features (like separate small tool pockets, suspenders loops,

Ideal if you don't want to spend a lot of money.Couple of the pouches have double pockets, but you can't really use the second bit as you can't get anything in / out of them.Well made, but the belt needs to be looked at, I had it as tight as it would go, and it was still hanging off me a bit. (I'm a 34" waist, not all builders are fat you know!!). Additionally, it kept coming loose every day or so, so had to keep re-tightening it.On the other hand, the belt is so long it would probably fit Andre the giant and still have some spare!!As a bargain belt it did the job for me, but maybe a little bit more thought into the layout is needed.

I ordered this Saturday afternoon and it was delivered Sunday morning. It is exactly as discribed in the advert and made quality material as you expect from Stanley. The actual belt is made from strong webbing and has a quick release buckle. The he buckle size adjustment is quick and easy. It has all the pockets and straps you will need and enough room on the belt to hang on cordless power drills/screwdrivers (make sure you order the belt clips for your cordless power drills/screwdrivers). The stitching is very strong, as is the metal studs that hold the loop for your hammer. A must buy for DIY enthusiasts.

I am well chuffed with this tool apron! Its bigger than expect but in a good way as the photos do not do it justice, feels hard wearing, plenty of compartments for everything (I am a DIYer so can't comment on the practically of this from a tradesmans perspective). I'm genuinely astounded by the value for money of this item!The only improvement I would make is to make slightly bigger opening to tuck the loose bit of belt that dangles when you reduce the waist size. You can tuck it away but it's very tight, I used a long screwdriver to Poke it through but no big deal. Otherwise perfect.

Really pleased with this product, and with Amazon's price and speed of delivery. It has more pockets, pouches and tool mounts than you can ever hope to use and seems pretty well made. Hasn't been used in anger yet, so robustness over time is difficult to predict.My only gripe, and hence the 4-star rating, is the waist size. I am a UK size 32 waist and even though I've shortened the belt to its minimum working length it sits very low on my hips. Once it has weighty tools, nails, screws, etc. on-board I fear it will tend to slip annoyingly low in use. We shall see.

Great, just what I needed. No longer do my trousers fall down while at the top of a step ladder trying to fix something. My pockets are liberated from tools and screws which end up scratching my phone screen! and No longer do I empty my pockets in the shops and find screws and nails rather than spare change! I can keep all my tools on the belt and it's ready to pick up and get stuck in. It also has the added benefit of making me look like I know what I am doing.

Loved this when it arrived. Used it for 6 weeks or so but when loaded up, kit hit the backs of my legs constantly. Waist belt doesn't have enough holes to make it smaller. Real shame, have bought another from your range with a webbing belt and metal buckle, way better. Shame really, 5'8 and 160lb is hardly small. Knocked one star off durability as it just didn't turn out to be useable.

Had one of these before and it lasted me a good 2 years with pretty much everyday usage. ??♂️As that one had deteriorated I decided to get another for £15 which is cheaper than everywhere i looked.Has adequate pockets and I'm a 34 waist and it fits no problem with the strap adjustment.I use everyday and even if this lasts me a solid year I'll be happy.

I really like this belt. I bought to make it easier when I do odd jobs around the house and garden. Having everything easily to hand, with plenty of storage pouches, and places for hammers and screw drivers etc is really helpful. Happy to recommend with the belt being really well made. Had it 6 months now and really happy with the purchase.

Love this tool belt..I did read from another review from a similar to me skinny bloke that it was a little large even at its smallest and that's true I'm about a 30-32 inch waist(depending on brand) and its slightly loose but there are ways around that but just bear that in mind..otherwise absolutely bang on..

This belt is one of the best tool belts I've purchased. High quality material and rugged construction. Had a bit of bother adjusting it to my (modest) waist size but my wife quickly sorted things. From hammer, to screwdriver, to screws and pencil you will be able to carry it with you in this belt. Great buy.

Bought this for my husband who has not stopped raving about it. I looked at quite a few but this one can store all sorts of equipment with ease, like a screwdriver. It has many little pockets for all sorts if bits which is handy when you are high up on a ladder and have everything to hand. He was thrilled.

Seems a great buy. Used it a few times, feels like it's going to last me a long time, even the clasp feels nice and strong. It looks like it fits a large range of waist sizes, I'm a 30/32 and I have it set not far off its smallest adjustment, on its largest I think it would have gone round nearly twice.
