The Momentum belt from Arcade Belts is another versatile, lightweight, and super comfortable waist belt that’s excellent for active people, travelers, and beyond. It has no metal, and is made of stretchy, recycled webbing to move with you. It’s also unisex.
I’ve covered Arcade belts before, particularly the Atlas stretch belt. The prevailing feature is that its metal-free, durable and lightweight, unlike most comparable belts. Well, Arcade is back with the Momentum belt, another performance-driven lifestyle belt made to deliver comfort and convenience. Focused less on utility and more on style and comfort, it offers a relaxed stretch that moves with you. In other words, you don’t have to worry about the belt being too taught around your waist or restricting your movement, especially if you’re active. Honestly, while wearing some of my conventional belts, I just count down the minutes and hours before I can take them off again. So the Momentum sounds divine to me.
The micro-adjustable buckle has no metal, so it will slip through TSA checkpoints just fine when you travel. More importantly, it offers a precise, reliable fit without traditional belt holes. The buckle clasps in place, and there’s an integrated elastic belt keeper that you can use to tuck away excess belt, neatly. In addition, the low-profile design and easy-to-use buckle makes it easy to take on or off, or adjust, in a few seconds. The belt itself is made of 85% post-consumer recycled REPREVE polyester, so it’s sustainable, but also machine-washable. You can just toss it into your washer when it needs a cleanup. Try doing that with other belts.
All said and done, it’s a highly functional, lightweight alternative to your average, traditionally designed waist belt.
Why would you want a Momentum belt from Arcade?
Whether you’re always on the go, for work or play, or you’re just looking for some everyday versatility versus traditional options, the Momentum belt is an excellent choice. It’s comfortable to wear, with plenty of built-in features to make it better than average. For example, the integrated elastic belt keeper, the quick-access buckle, and the machine-washable materials — not to mention sustainable recycled design. It’s also minimal and stylish enough to wear with a pair of dress slacks, or hold up your baggy jeans or outdoor shorts, whatever you need. The malleable webbing and perforated weave is suitably stretchy to keep up with your movements, fast or slow.
Plus, the unisex design means anyone can wear the Momentum belt. If you’re hitched, you could even share it. I’ll admit, that’s a little weird, but hey — you do you. Either way, you should check out Arcade belts when you get a chance.
Who is it for?
Anyone looking for a different, more versatile, comfortable, and all-around more lightweight waistbelt. It doesn’t matter whether you want it to dress up or dress down, and it’s excellent for activewear, too.
