Ditto, just wish more consistency in loop placement on my pants

Thanks for removing a Sea-note from my wallet...

I feel your pain... I am looking at getting a Nexbelt dress belt.

How is the Nexbelt as far as rigidity? My normal belt is an Armour Belts 1.5" dress belt with the internal stiffener. Any idea how it compares?

The Armour belt is several notches (all puns intended Wink ) above in both fit and function. That is not a knock against the other belt but a testament to Mike's product. Similar to a Galco holster compared to an Rgrizzle. Off the shelf vs custom hand crafted excellence.

^^^Thanks, that’s about what I expected. After having Armour Belts I’ve been spoiled, tried a few of these newer belts and have been disappointed in each. Sounds like this would be more of the same.

The Nexbelt I wear is the double layer heavy nylon model and it is plenty stout. Not internal stiffener belt stout, but enough for me.
The only question remains for me is will it lose its support over time? We shall see.

I wear a 511 nylon belt with nylon buckle. They make single thickness and double thickness belts. I went to the wider belts years ago and it made a world of difference in my back. It hurt a lot less. The belts work fine at airport security, no metal. They hold up forever.

I always use all the belt loops, for inside the waistband or out.

I have an outside thumb break holster and thread the belt over the outside of the holster. Seems to keep it closer into the body.
