Thumbs down NOT RECOMMENDED

Although cool in appearance, the heavy duty nylon that the A7A is made out of doesn't give.

Why is this important?

If the belt is too tight, it can constrict blood flow, thus increasing the chances of a heat injury.

The issue belt is made of cotton and expands as it gets hotter.

Go with the issue belt for selection.

My $.02.
