    Blade-Tech/Nexbelt. It's alright. Not stiff enough for super heavy guns but nice for AIWB with normal compacts or subcompacts. I wouldn't rappel with it.

    My Daltech Bio belt arrived today and first impression is that it is a very nice looking belt and not near as thick as the Relentless Tactical belt that I got last week. I sized it right and it looks great for dress or casual. I think the Relentless Tactical belt would be best for everyday wear with jeans and the Bio belt for dress up.

    I think I'm all set for all of my belt needs now and I even got a new pair of shoes to go with them.

    Been wearing BioBelt for 7 -8 years. Lost weight and ordered a smaller sized one 5 years ago. Wore every day, seven days a week and shows virtually no wear. Highly recommend.

    Got a nexbelt today with the ratcheting buckle. It seems nice, but first impression is that the buckle is pretty thick. It’s comfortable to wear while carrying so far and very easy to quickly tighten/loosen.

    I recently picked up a belt from Elite Survival Systems to use as an inner belt with a battle belt sleeve. I use a HSGI Slimline belt with the laser cut slots rather than the molle webbing. It took some configuring to be able to get the Velcro folded back on itself, but after I got the belt threaded through the right slots, it seems to work pretty well.

    It's made in the USA. Also my first belt with a Cobra buckle.

    I just bought a belt "system" from Esstac and it seems nice. It's the first item I've bought with a Cobra buckle and it seems decent.

    I'd like to get something like this for every day where the female side of the Cobra buckle is smaller so it will fit through pant loops (I don't feel like taking the belt off the buckle every time I put it on), but have never heard of the company...

    That's part of the reason I bought the belt I mentioned here...https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...-everyone-wearing-these-days.html#post8488527

    It's not hard to find a great sturdy belt for any kind of use, there are many companies that make them but you won't find one at a cheap price because quality equipment comes at a quality price. I would argue that an inexpensive belt, though it may look great, won't outlast quality, at least that's been my experience. Product reviews are a very big help in choosing a quality product.
