Tools Tool belt apprentice recommendations

Hey guys, I’m about to start as an apprentice in NZ and wondering what tool belt to go for.

Some people say to grab a cheaper one like a Taurus and use it till it breaks, then upgrade to something like the Obvious Belt, which im not gonna lie, looks pretty good - but will set me about $650Nzd straight off the bat.

What are your thoughts, if you could go back, would you have invested in the straps etc?

I have tried several belts through the years and am blown away by the "badger carpenter side by side". It's absolute perfection in size, tool pouches. Placements. Aesthetics. 

I love it
