Leather Concealed Carry Belt Options

So I've been concealed carrying for about 6 years now. I have a few holsters, and a couple belts.

My nylon one is an Elite Shooter Co. with Cobra buckle and Kydex reinforcement. It's awesome, sturdy and comfortable. It's just too tactical looking for the business casual stuff I have to wear.

My leather belt is a Keyhole Holsters, 1/4" thick leather with horsehide backing I believe. It's very well made, but after 6 years it's starting to curve a little too much, and has somehow mysteriously gotten a lot smaller, last notch..haha. I went to the website yesterday to shop for a new one, but there weren't any. So I messaged Mitch, the owner, and he doesn't make belts anymore. Too much for a one man business. Sad day...

Anyway, since TW has become my source of truth for many things over the last couple years...

What is a nice quality leather belt that you guys recommend?

 

I have one of these.

I have had it at least 8 years and have had zero issues. I also have one of the holsters.

I have 2 of these, one black and one brown. They hold up really well, the only complaint I have is the plastic liner in the center will break vertically across the buckle holes where it flexes when you buckle it. It holds the weight of a Sig P226 very well.

 

I'm a big fan of Deltaforce bull leather belts. Honestly a day doesn't go by that I'm not wearing one.

 

Love my BigFoot Steel Core (14 oz version).

I’ve had 2 https://relentless-tactical.com/ leather belts in both brown and black and they’re really nice American made. I’ve been using these for 7-8 years and they both still look new. I highly recommend!

 

Another endorsement for Deltaforce & https://www.bullhidebelts.com/collections/gun-belts Bull Hide leather belts!

 

I hate belts.

I underwent a minimalist conversion to MIC holsters:

With clipdraw clips.

This combo works on everything from a Bodyguard to compact 45ACPs.

I don't know how people walk around with big ass belts and kydex monstrosities sticking in their guts all day.....

 

I looked at that clipdraw the other day but it looked hokie. Good to know it works and I may consider it in the future. What are you using it on? Where do you attach the string on the holster?

 

Ruger LCP, Bodyguard, and Glock 30S. Favorite is the 30S, but LCP and bodyguard work very well even with just Tshirt and shorts. I clip a small caribiner to my belt loop.

 

I use one from the NRA catalog. It has worked well for a couple of years. Time will tell if it was a good deal.

 

The executive gun belt is very cool.
