I bought a couple, one from Hank's Belts...they are on eBay, and another from Forest Hill. boyj 1 1/2 in wide, and carry my holstered guns just fine. Very thick leather...much better than my 1 1/4" Tandy special that I made years ago.A bit expen$ive, but hank's belts are said to last 100 years.(?)

Today, my go l-to belts are 5.11 or HSG with Cobra buckle. I don't tuck in my shirt so generally nobody sees how tactically I hold up my trousers. I have a leather Milt Sparks belt I bought as part of a Summer Special II carry rig for an M&P 45 from years ago. It is a good belt. On occasions I have to put on a suit, I still have a couple of Galco dress belts.

I have been using a Beltman belt for the past 15 years. I stretched it out as I seem to have grown the wrong way since college and need a new one. They are of the highest quality.

I had one I got about 12-15, 18? years ago. It too shrunk on me. It looked like new after a dozen years riding below a police rig. It was way better than the thin black leather pants belt they issued.
The shrunken belt I gave to my nephew when he was crashing at my place for his first state corrections job assignment at nearby Comstock prison.

I ordered a Kore off scamazon. Free shipping if you have the stupid Amazon membership anyhow.
That said, they don't make it obvious but iirc they have a 15%/off deal for first responders if you email them and get signed up or a 10% first time customer discount. To me it was a wash with the free shipping I already could get on Amazon. If you bought on the Kore website and spent over a $100 on products you also get free shipping and could take advantage of those other discounts. I wasn't looking to spend that much.

Hanks Belts. I bought two gun belts from there around 15 years ago and wear them every single day as they are the only two belts I own. They are still in just as good shape as the day I bought them. I can not praise the quality of their stuff enough. Also have a Hanks wallet that has outlasted every other leather wallet I've ever owned.
Hank's, the Beltman, and VersaCarry. I've also found some great makers at my local gun shows.
