Belt issues

[Frost49]

So I took everyone's advice and got a really nice thick leather belt to hang my stuff on. Now here is the issue. We have been given new uniform pants at work. Dickies work pants. My nice belt barely fits through the belt loops. When I say barely, I mean it takes 5 minutes of pushing and pulling to get the belt through the loops. Any suggestions on a good belt, but not a thick piece of cow hide that might fit better with these pants?

What width of belt did you go with?

I have found a 1.75 belt won't work in most loops. I prefer 1.5.
But 1.25 will work as well, depending on what belt you go with.

I think the thickness, not the width might be your issue. I'd get a BioBelt. Really sturdy and not as thick as a leather gun belt. Plus they last forever.

I have one of these biothane belts. Biothane Belts

1.5 " wide, 1/8" (actually 0.150") thick. Has worked with all pants I have tried it with so far. $25.00. Took three weeks to receive it.

I've had to replace the belt loops before just to fit my preferred belt. Any alteration shop should be able to handle it.

SOE EDC low profile belt. Been wearing mine every day for 3-4 years and it shows no sign of wearing out. It's 1 1/2" and super stiff to carry my firearm and mags with zero issues.

Not this. Too long.

THIS!

Same belt material as CMB suggested, but instead from a Hoosier company that ships FAST. I ordered on Sunday and had mine in my mailbox on Wednesday. Screw 3 weeks!

And I LOOOOOVE it. Would buy another in a heartbeat.

Belt is 1.5" wide. That is the issue. Not the thickness. I'll check out Biothane. Thanks for the responses.

Daltech belts for the win! I've got 2 of them, 1 black and 1 brown.

Just received my Daltech yesterday. I love it! Even at only 1.25", it has stopped my .38 snub from bouncing when I walk (as compared to my regular belt). I would definitely recommend one of the biobelts!

I have yet to hear of anyone who was not satisfied with their Daltech Force biobelt.

I love mine, and after a year it still looks brand new.

This right there!!! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I have 2 of these belts and I love them. They hold up forever, barely show any wear, and do a great job of holding everything in place.

I have recommended these belts to everyone who asks me. So far, I do not recall a single person who has bought one and has been disappointed.

Just got this one today. Wearing it now and most all day. Huge improvement over my other belt, so far, so good. Time will tell how long it will last.
