Dressy belts

Post by txbirddog »

Anyone have a favorite belt maker that can make a "dressier" belt for dress pants with good support?

Thanks

Not sure how 'dressy' you want, but I like the Cabela's Double Duty belts http://www.cabelas.com/mens-belts-suspe ... lt-5.shtml" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;. They work fine with slacks for me.

I wear these for my slacks, reasonable price, and hold a holster very well

:iagree: I own two and couldn't be happier with them. Mine are black bullhide.

For my "casual wear" like cargo shorts, etc I prefer the Wilderness Instructor's Belt.

Appreciate all the input and the Blackhawk has possibilities. Many days I wear a full suit so i am kind of looking for a "real" dressy belt. Maybe something along the lines of an ostrich with some metal ends and holders.

We have several widths from AG gun leather, in my opinion a very nice belt for the money. They have some pricier options in rarer leather, but my cow hides work well - even my 1" for my ladies dress slacks do a nice job of supporting my 9mm in my IWB holster.

Several years ago I bought a brown "lizard" belt from The Beltman that looks nice with a suit or similar attire. It's no longer listed on his website but it might be worth sending him an email if you're interested in something similar.

What a lot of the others have already said, "The Beltman."

I have also been happy with this guy just make sure it is a "gun belt" you are ordering. Very quick shipping.
