The clip was sturdy and lasted sometime but I don't know how but the clip ripped off but with the warranty it got replaced, and I'm happy for that!

It takes a bit to break this thing in, but it works well once it softens up. A 30ft fat max feels stuck in it if you don’t remove the OEM clip on the tape. I like the little pencil loops, but pencils seem to get in the way of removing the tape quickly if you hang your pencils on it. It becomes cumbersome. I also find that my legs will push the pencils out of the loops if I hang it on my side. It’s pretty cool for my tempo lite belt though. It’s a nice quick light weight solution.

Not a necessity with the pouche set but great for on the hip

This is one of my very first purchases w/diamondback and I don’t regret it. I use it when I do layouts with my fatmax 35’ tape rule. Like it because it fits snug and I can easily clip it on or off my 701 vest. I find it very convenient.

Its a perfect combo for the vest. The bags sit a little higher than I was used to and this tape holder just made it easy to get to and put it exactly where I want it
