I love my belt back and literally never wear it around my waist. I wear it cross body.
HPG is the best option I’ve tried. Took me a while to convince myself to buy their Original kit bag, but once I did and used it I was sold. I’ve got 6 different kit bags of theirs now all set up for different uses. Incredibly versatile and so convenient for carrying. I’ve got 4 years or so with my original and it’s still in great shape.
