Does anyone here use a belly band holster? How do you like it? Does it work better for some body types? What are the advantages and disadvantages to this type of holster? I'm heavy/round in the middle. Carry weapon is a S&W Shield.

DON'T RECOMMEND BELLY BAND HOLSTERS
(Besides the will) accuracy is bringing the pistol into action.
Now, how fast do you think you can do this with a belly band holster?
So, everyone who packs should practice and practice, drawing the pistol __consider someone rushing you from ten feet away.
Practice with an empty pistol!
Stay safe out there.

Well, the first rule is to have a gun. I have a couple of belly bands. I don't "like" them and have not used one in a long time for lots of good reasons, but they serve a real purpose, albeit a limited one. For such a purpose, like entering a NPE where detection is not acceptable, they can be valuable.
