For instance, I’m a fairly average size medium, but their medium is on the verge of being too large on me when fully tightened, without modifying the location of the buckle, which is what I ended up doing. Another issue is the unusual sizing, which AXL does warn their buyers about, saying that you should go a size down from your normal pants or belt size.
The velcro on the Eclipse belt is arguably the weakest point on the belt, being low-profile hook-side velcro that only covers the top half of the belt, automatically cutting your velcro real estate in half and lessening how well the belt attaches to your inner belt.

These characteristics aren’t unique to the AXL belt, but what is unique is that theoretically, you can have this belt for less than $100, and upgrade incrementally, or go fully-loaded and spend no more than $135 before shipping for a belt with a Cobra or Raptor buckle, which cannot be said for other currently available thermoplastic belts that cost anywhere from $215 to $285. A fully-loaded AXL Eclipse belt can be held by the front, and the rest of the belt sags no more than a few inches vertically, even when loaded with magazines, an IFAK, and other typical belt attachments.
The characteristics of tegris mean that the AXL Eclipse gun belt is unbelievably lightweight and supports the weight of your various pouches and attachments well, with minimal torsion or sagging. Tegris thermoplastic is a material that visibly resembles carbon fiber, and which acts as a flexible and durable stiffening layer for belts, straps, and other structural elements of garments, replacing SCUBA webbing in many cases. The Eclipse, so named because of the fact that the tegris is partially exposed on the bottom half of the belt, hits every mark for a modern gun belt, and is a terrific grab and go option for anyone who wants to take advantage of new materials for better performance. AXL’s option starts at less than $100, and tops out at $135, depending on the fastening mechanism, which is pricing that’s competitive with almost any belt on this list, even our budget option. Belts from Ferro Concepts and GBRS have been using Tegris thermoplastic for years now, but they’ve usually had a price tag that’s well north of $200 as a unifying factor. The Eclipse belt by AXL Advanced is one of the newer developments in Tegris thermoplastic gun belts, and it makes these typically expensive options more affordable.
