In various example embodiments, devices, systems, and methods for a waist measuring belt are provided. An example waist measuring belt is made up of a belt buckle frame with attachments for a belt strap. The belt further includes a position measuring module coupled to the belt buckle frame that measures an attachment position of a second end of the belt strap to the belt buckle frame. The belt also includes a tension measuring module coupled to the belt buckle frame that measures a tension through the belt buckle frame and the belt strap. A memory and a wireless communication module attached to the belt may be used to store measurements and communicate with a mobile device or server. In various embodiments, estimated user waist sizes over time using measured values and belt-specific data may be used to estimate a user's waist size and generate a waist size history.

A glove and garment system includes a garment having a first sleeve and a second sleeve, a first glove and a second glove. A first female buckle portion is mounted to the first glove, a first male buckle portion is mounted to the first sleeve, a second female buckle portion is mounted to the second sleeve and a second male buckle portion is mounted to the second glove. In a first configuration, the first male buckle portion is buckled to the first female buckle portion to fix the first glove to the first sleeve and the second male buckle portion is buckled to the second female buckle portion to fix the second glove to the second sleeve. In a second configuration, the first female buckle portion is buckled to the second male buckle portion to fix the first glove to the second glove.

A belt audio system includes a belt and a buckle assembly having a first buckle body and a second buckle body. The first buckle body includes hooks extending outward from the front surface, and the second buckle body including a pair of openings for receiving the hooks. An entertainment device having a magnet on the back surface is connected to the first and second buckle bodies. The entertainment device having a speaker, and a wireless transceiver for receiving content from an external device to be played on the speaker. A location identification unit provides distance information for a golf course, and a display provides the detected distance. A decorative buckle cover includes a magnet along a back surface and decorative elements along the front surface. The buckle cover magnetically connects to the buckle assembly when the entertainment device is not in use.

A belt buckle and knife assembly for converting a belt buckle into a self defense weapon includes a buckle that has a first portion is hingedly coupled to a second portion. The buckle is positionable in a folded position or an unfolded position. A belt is removably attachable to extend between each of the first portion and the second portion of the buckle for wearing around the user's waist. A knife is pivotally integrated into the buckle and the knife is positionable between a stored position and a deployed position. A catch is movably integrated into the second portion of the buckle and the catch retains the knife in either the stored position of the deployed position.

The present invention relates generally to first aid articles and more specifically tourniquets suitable for one handed application. One embodiment of the invention is directed to a tourniquet having a base defining first and second ends. A constricting band is attached to and extends from the first end of the base. A windlass handle is engaged with the constricting band. The constricting band is threaded through a self cinching stepped buckle. A buckle connector includes a hook member that engages the stepped buckle and is partly held in place through urging against a loop of the constriction band.
