A waist belt fastener system includes a belt and a buckle mechanism attached to the belt. The buckle includes a rectangular frame having upper and lower sides that are curved outwardly, creating a convex shape that curves away from the belt wearer. At the rear side of the buckle frame where the buckle attaches to the belt, a fixed tongue member projects away from the buckle frame. This tongue member is fastened to the belt such as by a rivet, firmly anchoring and securing the buckle to the belt and inhibiting movement of the buckle relative to the belt. At the front side of the buckle frame, a fixed prong projects inwardly towards the buckle opening. The prong rests against the belt once it is threaded through the buckle opening. A hook and loop closure system is used to attach the ends of the belt together once the belt is inserted through the buckle opening.

A tangless buckle system for straps for watches, fitness monitors, and other limb-worn devices. In such tangless buckle systems, a buckle with a tooth is provided. In contrast to a traditional buckle, the tooth and the buckle are fixed with respect to one another, i.e., the tooth does not rotate relative to the buckle. As this new buckle design does not include the rotating tang that extends all the way across the buckle loop in a traditional buckle design, the new design may be referred to as a tangless buckle. Such buckles may provide a simpler, yet highly secure, mechanism for securing such devices.

A wearing member according to various embodiments of the present disclosure comprises: a strap comprising a first strap and a second strap; and a fastening member comprising a first fastener and a second fastener, wherein the first strap is configured to pass through the first fastener including a first magnet, the second strap is fixed to one end of the second fastener including a second magnet, the first fastener and the second fastener are formed to be stacked and coupled to each other, and on a cross-section with respect to the lengthwise direction of the strap, a normal line with respect to a coupling surface between the first fastening member and the second fastening member may have an angle greater than 90-degree with a tensile direction of the second strap applied to the second fastening member.

A belt has a strap defining a fixed end and a loose end and a buckle engaging the strap. The buckle has a frame defining a channel between outer and inner portions thereof and the outer portion extends beyond the lower portion. A prong protrudes from an undersurface of the outer portion into the channel to engage one of a series of holes of the loose end of the strap passing through the channel. The buckle also has a separable chape connecting the fixed end of the strap and which fits through a rear entrance of the channel to releasably connect to the inner portion of the frame.
