The Backcountry.com Energy belt wears its heart on its buckle. The belt’s buckle reads—Keep hiking, earn your turns—and we hope the tattoo on your heart reads the same. This nylon-reinforced belt won’t show wear after months of abuse, and the bombproof construction form our collaborating friends over at Spacecraft and their amazing manufacturing facility in Bali will probably outlast whatever trousers you’re wearing.

Bottom Line: Keep hiking, the Energy Belt will hold up your pants.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

backcountry & beyond belt

Awesomely versatile belt that holds up to a lot of abuse. My main ski belt, trekking belt, and fun times belt that actually can be thrown in the wash. Durable, strong, with an encouraging message etched in. I'm 5'8 female with medium build and the small is perfect.

So rad, and considering all the hardware attached to it making it look bomber, it is super light and comfortable. This is a perfect belt for the ski pants or other gear as it is tough and durable. A great gift or personal splurge.

I'm looking for a belt for ski pants. My waist is 38. Is this belt long enough?

If you read the reviews, people in the 32-34 waist size generally find the medium fit them well, with room to spare. One reports the small was stamped 26-30, so extrapolate that to 30-34 medium, 34-38 large. So, based on that detective work, it seems this would work for you. And, always an easy return in any event.

Great Belt

By:
January 9, 2012

This is a great belt. Very strong, and well built. It is very good looking. It is a little bit wide, so it doesn't fit in some narrow belt loops. But I love mine.

Holds up my pants

By:
July 12, 2011

This belt holds my pants up. It also looks cool and takes forever for the Little metal rings to rip out (although they will eventually). One of the more durable belts I've found for the price. Good for months of skiing/working, depending on how rough you are on... your belts.

Energy Belt

This a solid belt that I wear with jeans and my ski pants. Haven't had any problems with it. I ordered the Medium for my skinny 30 waist. I have several loops on either side. I'm happy with it considering its not too expensive for a belt that will hold up to a lot of abuse. Rock on BC!

This is a sick looking belt. The writing on my buckle is different though, says "Grab here, use as a whip". Quality. I'm a 34" waist, should've gotten large but the medium just about works too!

Ski belt became my only belt

By:
March 27, 2011

Solid construction, durable, and killer style and graphic. I love this thing and have been wearing it on almost a daily basis since September. 6 months and my only gripe is that it's a little wide and makes for a tight loop fit on some jeans. Beyond that very small thing this belt is sick!

Great belt. Just the right width. I'm a 33"-34" waist and all that was available was a large. I'm on the last notch of the belt. Wish they had a medium.

This is a killer belt. Waist is a 32 and I got a medium. The belt has 10 belt holes and I have 5 left. It is surprisingly light and about. Its 1.5 inches wide.

if i were to write a review, this is exactly what i would have written.

i'd also add that the belt just has a good feel to it — it's more comfortable than a normal leather or vinyl belt — it almost has a soft padding to it.

An Essential

I simply can't ski without this belt. It's held up phenomenally after a year, showing NO signs of wear after 100+ days in all sorts of conditions.

bomber belt

By:
March 9, 2010

This belt is great. It's thick enough to hold up ski pants and looks good enough to wear with jeans everyday. The buckle is solid and the engravings on the bc belt buckles are a nice addition. It is removable though if you want to alternate buckles. The sizing on the small is stamped on the inside, 26"-30".

Nothing fancy here but a really cool belt that is bomb proof and looks pretty stylie. I also have the tramdock belt and sport these with pride. They work well for ski pants or any pants and I plan on having these for awhile.

34-35 <> Large

By:
January 6, 2010

Sweet belt but sizing is off. I'm a measured 34-35 waist (not just randomly guessing based off pants/shorts/etc) and went w/ the large first (34-38 it said), and it was way big. I switched out for a medium (allegedly for 30-34 waist) and its perfect...4 holes left going one way, and 5 the other. The length of the medium excluding buckle is 41". As others have noted: its wide, padded, comfortable and seems durable.

I think this belt is designed, in part, to hold up ski, snowboard, or snow pants, which is why the sizing leans a little on the bigger side.

Perfect

By:

Its a little big for using as an everyday Belt, but for the slopes, when you have layers on it works perfect. The Design is great I absolutely Love it.

The size comes as a 34-38

Sizing

By:
February 10, 2010

Don't listen to what people say about the size. Everyone scared me away from going with the size I should have gone with, a large. It's the size they recommend and is the right size. Now I have to ship it back and return because I listened to the reviews.

The belt though is much cooler looking then the picture makes it out to be and looks very durable. I'll be exchanging, not returning.

Cool belt

Does the job and so far has been very durable through everyday use, hiking, biking, etc. I have a 34" waist and I am on the final (smallest sizing) of the L so the M is probably ideal for my size.

light and comfy all you need to keep your pants up. I use it everyday but also a great belt to hold up my ski pants and unlike typical leather belts it's not stiff and doesn't stretch and crack over time

This belt is pretty basic and yet rad at the same time. It's not leather so it can get wet. And the buckle and fabric are super durable so you can wear for any activity.

I'm catching up on all my reviews today, and I have this belt and LOVE it, the quality is amazing it's made my spacecraft and you can tell. The graphics are ergo and the holes never wear out. I have a small waist and there are plenty of extra holes to keep this belt on me!. I would highly suggest this belt over any big named brands out there.

backcountry belt ski pants belt

By: Backcountry.com Employee
September 9, 2009

i wore this belt on a backcountry tour through europe to hold up my softshell pants. i HATE when the backpack pushes my pants down, and i look like a gangster out there. this belt was awesome. lightweight, and stays dry, burly buckle that is cast metal and solid. The germans i met in the Chanrion hut loved it too, and wondered where you might be able to get a belt so rad.

Add to you your inbounds ski pants. add to your softshell pants (the cool softshell pants that has belt loops). it just may save your life someday.
