Lightweight belt recommendation?

[rlee323]

When walking during the summer, I like to have reduced weight so looking for recommendations for a lightweight casual belt - what type (e.g. silicone, fabric) and brand have you liked?

Depending on the style you are after I have one of these and it's super comfortable with plenty of colors available.

I was just thinking the other day need one too. I feel my belt weighs more than my shirt, shorts, shoes and hat combined. Never thought a thing of it till I started wearing under armour heat gear which weighs practically nothing.

Your kidding, right?

For those that also hike and camp, I don't think my question is so strange to ask. Carrying golfers here discuss reducing the number of clubs, using sunday bags, wearing lighter shoes etc. - I understand that the weight of the belt is de minimis overall so it's more of a feel - similar to what browne11 said, it somehow doesn't feel right/comfortable during the summer wearing lightweight wicking clothing with a heavy belt.

I really hope this is a joke.
Why not just eliminate socks.. It will make the same difference

I am working on developing carbon fiber tees because the weight of carrying a dozen wooden ones in my bag is seriously affecting my game.

The pros have been wearing tour only lightweight belts for years. It's how the get their hips to fire through the ball and the secret to their ball striking.

Outside of the odd question. Anyone ever used nexbelts?

[brianmontgomery2000]

I wear web/military style belts.

I wore a Military Web belt for 21 years, don't recall it helping me march any better or longer. Had I known about a light belt making that much difference I'm sure that the 60 lb ruck on my back would have been much more comfortable (I also had to walk to school in the snow, up hill, coming and going).

I now wear a leather belt, light ecco/footjoy shoes, shirt, socks and am slightly older than dirt and don't feel weighed down. Of course, to each their own, especially if it makes you feel you have more energy.

Shoestring, used it for years when skateboarding so it wouldn't grind into my hips when I ate it

I get the point for a light weight belt but not for the reasons above. I feel like heavy belts (buckles) weigh my shorts or pants down and find myself constantly tugging them back up.

I only wear bike web belts for golf very light and cheap
