# Holeless Technology Belts Trakline Holeless Belts Use a Clever System to Snugly Adjust Size By Jen Chae | Published 2013-06-05 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holeless-belts References: [kickstarter](http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1115468767/trakline-a-new-kind-of-belt-for-men?ref=home_popular) A San Diego man invented [holeless belts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vital-belt) that use a special technology to fit more perfectly than standard belts. Inspired by some of his personal past experiences with poorly designed leather belts, the Trakline is perfected to be comfortable and appealing. The hidden “trak” system is supposed to last longer than holed belts, because they will not stretch and wear out. The track, made of [full-grade leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buckle-strap), is cut a certain way so that the buckle adjusts and clips to every quarter inch track. The [steel buckle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/watch-concept-1) has a small tab underneath it that can release or adjust the belt. Belt holes are spaced apart ever half inch or so. The Trakline belt can be adjusted to every quarter inch, assuring the perfect fit. The Trakline offers 40 sizing positions to choose from, while traditional belts usually have five. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Science](https://www.trendhunter.com/science) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Holeless Belts:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for fashion industry to invest in holeless belt technology with increased comfort and durability. - **Adjustable Sizing System:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for clothing and accessories industries to incorporate more precise adjustable sizing systems using Trakline technology. - **Leather Track Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for material science industry to explore using leather tracking technology in designing and creating new products. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** The fashion industry has an opportunity to develop holeless belt designs that improve comfort and last longer. - **Clothing and Accessories:** Clothing and accessories industries can integrate Trakline technology to incorporate more precise adjustable sizing systems in their products. - **Material Science:** Material science industry can explore using leather tracking technology in designing and creating new products other than belts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Emergency Tracking Belt Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcade-x-recco-stretch-belt.md) - [Indestructible Sleek Belt Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/indestructible-belt.md) - [Concealed Cowboy Belt Buckles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/truckle.md) - [Tubular Flexible Runner Belts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flipbelt-running-belt.md) - [Sleek Lace Trimmer Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lace-up.md) - [Belt-Based Wearable Sensors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vital-belt.md) - [Taco-Holding Belt Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/venmo-taco-bellt.md) - [Hands-Free Dog Leashes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beltdog.md) - [Convenient Elastic Shoelaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bread-laces.md)
