The ATLAS Suspenders aren't meant to hold up the weight of the world but of your belt kit. More specifically to help carry and ease the weight of light to medium pistol belts and the sort while under a plate carrier and allowing for free movement. Most suspenders are bulky and get in the way with other parts of your kit and others don't move well with your body in all the demanding environments and positions you may face. The ATLAS is different and uses a sleek and snag free design to stay out of the way as it helps you transfer the load.

Slim design makes for comfort under a plate carrier. Superior product quality. I prefer suspenders with 4 points of attachment to the belt. This set only has 3 points of attachment. I still give 5 stars because this is a preference, not a product issue.
Strong, rigid, thin and light as can be. Shoulder strap width is great, haven't had any pain with maybe 10lbs of belt and the vent holes are nice. I have it looped through molle with the friction adapters near to the top of the belt which is very secure but leaves the tails loose. On one hand, it feels like the tails are missing something to secure them for such a pricey product but on the other, any soldier should know to just tape them and it's nice being able to keep them so thin that way. The other thing, and this may be different with a shaw belt or maybe any inner/outer hook and loop style belt (I have a cheaper but still quite rigid belt) the single mount in the back puts some sag on either side of it. It does come with a pack of shock cord, I think I'll use that to make it a 4 point harness with a little flex, I've just been concerned about having shock cord pressed into my lumbar by my back plate and I have been liking the rigidity. Overall great product, I just really think being a 4 point would be worth the extra material.
The suspenders are great my only issue and the reason I don’t give it a 5 star. The way the suspenders are cut the tear my shirts up by chaffing that’s the only complaint.

I use this on my DM battle belt. I got some VTAC suspender adapters and put some G-Hooks on them. I'm 5'10", 228, torso like a billboard, traps but not like a triangle, and no butt. Hence why I got the suspenders. For all the keyboard warriors that are like "ugh why not just go with a traditional war belt?" I have my reasons. Fully loaded belt with pistol and ammo we're looking at ~8.5 lbs., and so far these hold up just fine. The straps are very thin and strong. Very light. I will say that the buckles are also very thin, and metal; therefor, they will wear holes in your undershirt after a full days use. I recommend just throwing a single layer of 100mph tape or fabric tape around them. If you really want to get squirrelly you could throw some hot pink tape around them and have multicam everything else.
