I have used this tool belt for just a little while now and I have not had any issues with the belt and suspenders combo. I have no sliding of the suspenders off the shoulders and they feel comfortable. Though, I will say that the phone holder will not fit my Samsung Note 9. This tool belt was meant for tools. The belt is comfortable even for a 40″ waist there is no complaints. The is enough room in the pouches to keep my tools in without them fall out or spilling over if I bend over. It does have a secure snug speed square pocket. Cats paw pry bar holder, hammer loop, and plenty of inserts in the big pouches to keep screw divers and other small hand tools in there place. If this went missing I would gladly buy it again.
