With two position options for its secure clips, a dual-adjust buckle, and light air mesh padding, the Fast Belt lets you find sizing and comfort that’s just right. Plus, its zippered mesh storage pockets can hold an unbelievable amount of snacks.

Our Verdict

The Gossamer Gear Fast Belt is a cleverly designed ultralight hip belt that can be attached to many of their ultralight backpacks. Weighing in at just 95g, it provides welcome support and load transfer without weighing you down.

The dual-adjust buckle and two sizing options allow you to dial in a precise, comfortable fit. The lightweight air mesh padding prevents chafing while still allowing you to breathe well. Perhaps the best feature, though, is the zippered mesh pockets—perfect for stashing snacks or small items you want close at hand on the trail.

The Fast Belt is a versatile upgrade for ultralight load hauling made from rugged recycled nylon. It is a good, minimalist choice for gram-counters looking to distribute weight better.
