ABSTRACT:
A buckle comprising a female part having a hollow body with a front wall, a back wall, an open top, a cavity between the top and bottom walls and at least one locking slot extending through the hollow body and communicating with the cavity. The top and bottom walls have a cutout that communicates with the open top. There is a male part that has a base, at least one locking leg and a central leg. The central leg has a shape that corresponds to the shape of the cutout in the female part. The central leg also has a mesh portion that reduces the weight of the buckle. Inserting the male part into the open top of the female part causes the central leg to rest in the cutout of the female part and the locking leg to engage the locking slot to lock the male part to the female part.
