118 owner reviews, fewer than most models here
The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Most belts in this comparison stick to black, so the Hip DCGHTB01's black and orange colorway is one way it tries to stand out, alongside a $28.99 price that undercuts most of the leather options here.
Built from nylon in One Size, it posts a 4.4-star average across 118 reviews, tying the Lever belt-01's and Harbinger 360982's rating despite costing far less than either at $69.99 and $49.99 respectively. Its review count of 118 is modest, smaller than the Exercise YF010's 217 or the RIV001's 316, but the rating itself holds up against pricier alternatives.
What stands out most is demand. 200+ units bought last month matches the Belt TW and GORUCK PHB-0101U, both other budget-tier belts in this comparison, and doubles the Harbinger 28900's 100+ figure. For a lifter who wants a distinctive-looking, reasonably rated nylon belt with real current demand behind it, the Hip DCGHTB01 at $28.99 is a solid budget pick.

Performance notes
A nylon, One Size belt like the Hip DCGHTB01 favors flexibility and broad fit over the precision sizing seen on belts like the 3-in-1 RIV001 or the rigidity of leather options like the Harbinger 360982. That makes it more suited to general lifting and moderate loads than max-effort powerlifting, where a stiffer leather belt provides more bracing. The black and orange color scheme is purely cosmetic. At $28.99, it is priced in the budget-to-mid tier of this comparison, above the cheapest belts like the Hip HTB-0001-B at $13.47 but below every leather option here.
What buyers say
A 4.4-star average across 118 reviews matches the rating posted by the pricier Lever belt-01 and Harbinger 360982, a solid result for a budget nylon belt. The review count is on the smaller side of this comparison, though not the smallest, sitting above the GORUCK PHB-0101U's 58 and RDX WPB-RD-NEW-IT's 148. The 200+ units bought last month is a stronger signal, matching two other budget belts in this set and suggesting the DCGHTB01 has found a steady buyer base despite its shorter review history.
