In a clear leap on price, this tool belt by Occidental is in a league of its own. Being constructed from the highest-grade, premium top grain leather, this is a USA-made belt that deserves every builder's attention. 

Noting the total of 23 pockets in all shapes and sizes, it's safe to assume that even the most equipped of builders won't scoff at its stature. The copper reinforced rivets are complemented by the toughened double stitching, making it known that this belt won't get tired for a while. Invest in something special with this belt of all belts. 

Another entry near the top for the Dewalt brand, this tool belt is an industry favourite for any carpenter or builder looking for that Dewalt touch. Made of high-grade 1200D polyester with leather implemented onto high friction areas, it's a belt to weather the building storm with. 

The included drill holster with safety clip is a sure-fire way straight to any builder's heart, while the increased padding across the hips and lower back will give an unrivalled feeling of comfort and pride. Let yourself in on the Dewalt secret and snap this one up before it's gone. 

In a very similar light to Dewalt, Makita are at the forefront of the building trade where tool manufacturing is concerned. This tool belt is in alignment with the Makita way of producing things, being built of toughened leather and nylon to yield a durable yet light and comfortable tool-wielding sidekick. 

The increased lower back support across the belt will give you plenty to smile about, while the reinforced rivets and galvanised washers won't be popping off anywhere in a hurry. At 1 kg in weight, this is a well-constructed belt that weighs less than most. 

Dewalt know the building trade like the back of their hand. Producing top of the line tools for years, they know what works and what definitely does not. Therefore, you could bet your last milky tea on this tool belt with included suspenders functioning just the way it should. 

It's adorned with 19 pockets to give carpenters plenty of nail-storing space while framing. Each pocket can be loaded up to the pocket's edge too, as the suspenders will give you load-bearing support. The belt fits waists in the 29" - 46" range, ensuring even the thinnest of tradies can get some welcomed relief. 

Baigio have done right by the electricians and technicians of the building trade, creating this well-made waist bag with belt and shoulder strap. The eight pockets give ample storing space for its size, making sure that this belt won't disappoint its intended audience. 

The construction is very much on point as well, being made of polyester canvas with a combined denier count of 1680D. This gives rise to a reliable undertone of quality that will keep rolling by your side when the going gets tough. Weighing just over half a kilo tops things off nicely. 

This tool belt by WrightFits is as good a belt as you'll find for under £30. Constructed from hard-wearing, dyed buffalo leather that can even be machine washed, it's a tool belt that looks as good as it performs. 

With a modest amount of pockets, it's not trying to be anything it's not, instead, it focuses on being a work accessory that can be relied upon day in, day out. Add that to the double stitching and reinforced riveting complemented by a steel hammer loop, and you'll agree that this is a really good deal.

Branded as being constructed from heavy-duty top grain leather, this tool belt from Am-Tech is poised to last. It offers 12 pockets and two steel hammer loops, so most tradespeople should find some building solace whatever they need to hand. 

The oil-tanned brown leather really sets a nice tone against the copper-plated rivets to give a rustic, hardwearing look, suiting any rugged builders with an eye for design. Weighing in at 1.15 kg reveals that it's not the lightest of the bunch, but then again, quality leather isn't light. 

This single pouch belt from Copechilla is intended for electricians and technicians specifically. It's constructed from oxford canvas polyester, but unfortunately, the denier count is on the lower end for a tool belt at 600D. 

However, it weighs a mere 228 grams, making it the lightest tool belt on the list and possibly the internet. This low weight is a defining reason why this belt deserves a recommendation. With a total of 12 included pockets, it'll keep any technician well-equipped for all manner of unforeseen wiring woes.

Here's another budget tool belt designed to get any apprentice on the job site and looking the part for a whole lot less. This one comes equipped with 11 pockets to house a reasonable amount of tools and is branded as an all-purpose belt. 

The fact that it comes with a steel hammer loop makes it more geared toward builders and carpenters than technicians, but Cengyuik has instructed that it's non-discriminatory. The basic rivets and stitching mean it will have its flaws when coming up against rigorous work, but at least it's effective and cheap!

First on our list is this tool belt with 20 pockets, a metal tape measure clip and two fabric hammer loops. This entry-level tool belt is ideal for apprentice carpenters, builders and any DIY enthusiasts. 

For under £20 it's certainly not a belt that's going to be hanging off your hips for years – it'll get you onto the job site, learning as you go with your new tools at the ready. It does, however, fit waist sizes from 32" - 48", so most older teens and adults should have no problems in the sizing department.
