Leather holster for 2" belt?
I'm looking for a good leather OWB pancake-style holster that can accommodate a 2 inch belt that I occasionally wear. I definitely want for my P228 and non-rail P229s, but I'd also want holsters for some of my other Sigs as well.

Over the years there are a few that I trust. They do excellent work and their quality is very high. TT Gun Leather , Kramer , Tucker Gun Leather and Stoner. They normally offer up to 1 3/4 but Stoner I know will do just about any custom job in reason.

neex if you are in EU you might want to check Akah, some of the German military belts were 2", Akah also makes pancake holsters for the 225/228/229. The US holster makers shouldn't have a problem making the holster with 2" belt slots.

All my pants have belt loops that just take 1.75" belt with no problem. Anything wider than that won't fit. So what type of pants has belt loops that will accept a 2" wide belt is what I am wondering.

Thanks for the suggestions. Seems like this isn't something that's ready-made, so I'll look into reaching out to some of these shops.

All uniform pants have 2" loops for duty belts. I like the pants these guys make [1] because they fit me just right and [2] they have enough pockets for me but have styles/colors that look like normal clothes (not gray man/overtly tactical). I don't know about their other stuff, but their pants are awesome.

I have an old leather 2" belt for a dress uniform that I've discovered is more comfortable to wear than my 1.75", especially on days when my back is hurting.

I would definitely second a Ryan Grizzle holster. He is prepared to meet specific requirements. Not on his web site, but he made an SSR OWB Paddle holster for me. I have two others of his IWB holsters. Great workmanship and excellent service.

I'd just ream an 1/8" out of top and bottom of belt loops.

When you order your holster you might want to order extra belt loops. A set of 1.5, 1.75 and 2. This should save you from having to buy multiple holsters to accommodate different belts.

I bought a belt, mag carrier, and two holsters from him. They are excellent pieces of craftsmanship.

You can take a look at Brommeland gun leather, he will do a larger format belt.
