Tool belt
A tool belt, tool harness, tool apron or a tool vest is a belt, apron, or harness worn around the waist, torso, or shoulders and fitted with pouches / pockets, loops, or holsters designed to hold and organize hand tools, equipment, and fasteners. Tool belts are commonly used in construction, carpentry, electrical work, plumbing, and other trades where quick access to tools is essential. Tool belts allow the wearer to carry frequently used tools within easy reach while keeping both hands free for work. Some tool belts are part of a larger harness, suspenders, or vest system over the shoulders to distribute weight and reduce strain on the lower back and waist.[1][2]
