I have a great 1 1/2" bull hide gun belt that works when I am wearing jeans. My problem is when it warms up and I switch over to cargo shorts. I have several pair that have tunnel loops in the front and my 1 1/2" belt will not go through it.

I have read several belt threads and followed the links, but I have not found a Tactical Belt less than 1 1/2" wide. Anyone make one? I know I can get leather, but I think the tactical would look better with my shorts.

Check out Tex Shoemaker Leather, they make belts in several widths. Each item is made to order so you can ask for tweaks in how it is built. Excellent quality, tremendous customer service.
 
I have a 1.5" wide all leather and thick from Walmart - $18.00. I don't understand why so many think they need to spend $40.00+ to get a good leather belt.

Edit: A bunch of Amish Leather 1 1/4" wide belts - There are 1 1/4" wide on almost every page I posted.

I have looked at many Amish belts and they appear to be very good quality and not too expensive. It would be my next choice.

CCW Belts - Hanks Amish Belts the Gunner- 1.5 Inch

Amish Double Prong Belt - The Marshall - Garrison Belt

I have no idea if they are good, but doing a web search returned Wilderness at:

www(dot)thewilderness(dot)com / tactical-belts / frequent-flyer-belt /

I didn't check them all, but it seemed like the frequent flyer was the only one that was 1-1/4.
 
I have a frequent flyer...it's a good belt, although it's a bit thicker than my 1 1/2 inch wilderness instructor belt....

Will the frequent flyer support an OWB holster with a Shield? I don't think the thickness will be a problem, just a width of 1 1/2" will not fit.

Yes. I have the 3 stitch and it's quite stiff. With the Shield, I doubt you would need a 5 stitch. I would say even a 1911 would be no problem.
And you don't have to remove it when you fly...:)

Lots of info on them if you google around...
