Just bought one and love the concept of ratchets instead of holes to buckle it. Immediately put my Galco leather holster on it to carry my P239. Problem: the belt is so stiff, it pinches it so tight, it is almost impossible to draw. I have always used leather holsters for all my pistols and am wondering if a Kydex holster would solve the problem since it appears to be stiffer (never used a Kydex). Thanks for any help.

I’ve got the same belt and I haven’t had any issues with my kydex gear.

I have a Kore belt and Blade-tech Total Eclipse. Zero issues, great combo.

I have both the tactical and the leather Kore belts. I also use kydex and leather holsters OWB and the belts work flawlessly. The ratchet system is the best once you get used to it.
