tool belt - where to get one?

pnklmnd

hello,

i wanna get a tool belt for my dad...so far i've found a dewalt one for about £73 at toolshopdirect.co.uk.

is this the average price for a decent heavy duty tool belt?
anyone had any dealing with this retailer before? (couldnt find any reviews)

thank-you.

If you're down south, there's a small chain of shops specialising in bankrupt/excess stock called In-Excess. They do lots of DIY stuff, and recently had very strong-looking webbing toolbelts/carriers with metal frames and also some leather toolbelts. I think they were something like £10-20.

I got mine for less than a tenner at wickes

so, a £20 hoover out of tescos is the same as a £150 miele hoover............no, i didnt think so

I got mine from Machinemart....It was about £10 nearly 4 years ago and I am still using it on a daily basis. It is the suede leather type

There is this one or one a pound cheaper, Like I said I have used mine on a daily basis for nearly four years and it is still going strong, I dont see the necessity to spend lots of dosh.

Maybe not but would a £74 tool belt last 32 plus years to make it the same value as my chepaer one...I dont think so
