Love my Kore Essentials Gun Belt. It’s a ratchet style so you can easily adjust on the fly. It’s also very stiff yet conforms to your body well so it’s comfortable even when carrying plenty of weight. I have had mine for quite a while now, maybe 5 years and it’s held up tremendously.
When I got mine they didn’t have all the choices or styles of gun belts they do now. It was choose you size, buckle, and leather or nylon. Now it looks like they have other offerings that certainly peak my interest and I will probably be grabbing one of their newer leather gun belts.
Btw I use one of their non gun leather belts as my dress belt and it’s held up really well also.

I have a few Beltman Belts and they aren't as thick of a leather, so they didn't hold up more than 2 years.

Ratchet Style Gun Belts - Nexbelt vs Kore Essentials
OK... in the Hanks thread, I made a post that I have been using the Kore Essentials belt for a while. I have 4 of them. 2 Leather and 2 Tactical in Brown and Black. I ordered a NexBelt - the Supreme Appendix because I liked the specs on the buckle. According to my calipers the NexBelt is 4mm...

From a suggestion here long ago - Wilderness Instructor belt. I have them in black and coyote, and pretty much only otherwise wear a 'dress' belt when dressed in a suit & tie. I wear my wilderness instructor's belt with jeans, cargo pants & shorts, and they're great. Ten+ years and look & perform as new.

I bought 3 5.11 tdu belts in like 2009 and i cant kill them, so im still using those
Bought a Kore for myself this past winter.
I like it, but it's a little long when I use it and am not carrying.
I'd buy it again and wish I had bought one years ago.

Have a couple Daltech belts. Use a well broken in leather only one for everyday carry on work days.
Have a steel core one which is crazy stiff that comes out when I’m carrying a bigger pistol and mags.
Also have a Vedder cobra belt that I really like and wear on the weekends. The smaller cobra buckle is great because it goes thru belt loops and you don’t need to take it apart when you change pants.
When I picked up the cobra belt they were having some sort of sale so I grabbed the Vedder polymer core leather belt as well. Haven’t worn it too much yet but looks to be well made and comparable the the steel core one I have from Daltech.

i've been using an amerihide belt by disse outdoor gear for 10 years now. still the same belt, still looks good. if your looking for a leather everday gunbelt this works. i have the 1.75". also, i'm a big guy and it hasn't rolled. you skinny guys won't know what i'm talking about. they were one of the few companies that offered what i was looking for in my size and offer a bunch of styles and stiching. i also had to contact them when a rivet for one of the 2 buckle retainers unscrewed itself and i lost it. they sent several back within a few days of my contacting them. it was recommended to me, pricey at the time, but i think a good investment.
I have been using a Bigfoot leather reinforced belt for years now. Still straight as an arrow. The steel really makes the difference.
