Occidental Leather 8089 M OxyLights 7 Bag Framer Set

Excellent quality really nice

El cinturón vino muy corto

I purchased this because more than one my coworkers had theirs that were over8 years old and used everday.Fits perfect and has a spot for every tool I use. Tape,speed square ,chalk box ,100 tape, chisel,crescent wrench,and all of the fasteners used in construction. The only bad thing is Ill never buy another tool belt

Im a third generation California framer. My dad still has his all leather oxys he bought in 1988. Ive built 500,000+ SF of house till close in with my bags. When I was a kid I would carry everything in em. Now that Im older I keep it to basic tools and a ton of coils or racks of nails. They have been through hell and back 29 to 107 degrees, rain and sun, 8-16 hour days 5+ days a week. After 10 years Im finally hanging em up and switching to the all leather oxy pro framers. One thing I recommend is use the 3 padded nylon belt and get the suspension.

Ordered the bags and arrived beautiful, almost hesitant to wear them, real artwork...the problem is that I ordered based off their fit scale and got an XL...I need a L. I need to exchange the belt. I had to use the bags for work so I took the bags off the belt and used an old belt, keeping the XL belt like new so I can exchange it...I emailed Oxy and sent a message on their contact us page on their website over a week ago and still no reply...next step is to try to call during my break during normal business hours...but with time change and them only working till 3pm its hard to find time to call M-F because I work 12hr shifts M-F. Like I said, I love the bags, and proud they are made in USA...but come on...spend $300 on some canvas bags and I cant get a hold of anyone...if I knew this was going to be the case I would have just returned the entire set and reordered..customer service has been non existent and I guess I expected more from a premium brand here in the states. UPDATE: Evidently OCCIDENTAL isnt the seller here, its some other distributor, Occidental finally got back to me and said that they would exchange the XL belt to a Large belt for $25....I would have been better off returning the set that didnt fit and just ordering a Large belt set and avoided a $25 fee. This should be more clear when ordering on Amazon. Like I said, I like the bags but this entire experience has put a bad taste in my mouth....CAVEAT EMPTOR indeed....

2 thumbs up

Awesome

So I bought this around Christmas time and I didn’t want to leave a review on the first week kinda freak it’s a great tool belt I’m a framer of four years and I’ve been thought a few belts so far there are no were or tears in it at first I found it was kinda big and to be honest I’m still breaking it in the first few weeks with the belt was kinda hell it dug into my hips and the little metal peace’s would leave scratches all over my waist Im really impressed with the product heard lots of great things about them and I’m happy with my perches

Two guys I work with have these, so I finally looked into them (whole in denial about the crappiness of my setup) Ive had this Occudental rig 1 day and I regret not buying them LONG AGO! I originally had a minimal setup which got the job done, and this rig is twice the size but feels signficantly lighter. If you buy these, you will realize just as I did that you should have bought them long ago! One of the guys in our crew has had it for years (framing houses, not finish work) and its holding up as if it were only lightly used. Worth every penny and and things just got alot easier thanks to these. Also, they are made in the USA, which is great.

Well built, have used the leather set for 10 years. We will see what kind d of lifespan these have
