All About the 5355 Stronghold Comfort Package

The Stronghold Comfort Package bundles the 5055 Stronghold Suspenders with the 9008 Hip Buddies for all-day comfort under a loaded tool belt.

The suspenders carry the load up top. A padded, contoured yoke lined with moisture-wicking Dri-Lex spreads the weight across your shoulders and keeps the straps in place, taking strain off your hips and lower back while you stay cooler and drier. Chest pockets keep small tools within reach, and the heavy-duty center D-ring lets you hang up the whole rig when you take it off.

The Hip Buddies take care of the belt. These lightweight, high-density cushion pads slide onto any belt up to 3" wide and add padding at the hips without adding bulk. They accept bags up to 7.5" wide and are sold as a pair.

Together they give you support at the shoulders and cushioning at the hips, built for full days under a full load. Available in OxyRed and OxyBlack.

Made in the USA.

Nylon Gear Care - Keep your nylon tool gear in top shape.

  • Brush off jobsite grit daily, and wipe down with a damp cloth as needed, and let it air dry.
  • Occasionally shake out debris from the inside.
  • Avoid prolonged sun exposure and heavy chemical cleaners.
  • For stubborn grime, use mild soap and water.
  • Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Abrasions or small tear repair -

Nylon components on tool bags—like webbing or trim—are tough but not indestructible. If you notice any abrasions or small tears, it's important to act early before they spread and worsen.

  • Use a nylon repair tape or fabric patch (such as Tenacious Tape or Gear Aid) to seal the area. Super Glue will do the trick in a pinch on small areas.
  • Make sure the surface is clean and dry before applying the patch.
  • For added strength, you can stitch over the damaged area with heavy-duty thread.

* Catching minor damage early can prevent it from becoming irreparable, especially in high-stress areas like seams, corners, or straps.

* Nylon Tool Bag Repair Policy -

Occidental Leather does not offer repairs on nylon tool bags due to the structural limitations of woven synthetic fibers. When ballistic nylon becomes torn or frayed, the integrity of the weave is compromised. Unlike leather, nylon cannot be re-stitched or restored to its original strength—only surface patching is possible. Because we do not provide patching services, replacement is recommended for compromised components to ensure continued safety and performance.

Fading — Nylon will naturally fade over time with sun exposure. Prolonged or frequent exposure to direct sunlight will accelerate fading. Fading is a normal characteristic of nylon and is not considered a defect.

Comfortable set up

Good quality, but I wish I would have order the next size up on the support belt because I only have a extra hole for the buckle pin and also a torpedo level holder.

I love the product. Only complaining i can do is the buckles that go to the belt is that they are kinda of bad height in a scissor lift or boom lift to push right into your belly

Worth the money. Helps distribute the weight of the belt.
