I just received a Crossbreed (CB) Supertuck for a Glock 19. My old leather belt is too thick for the CB clips and my other synthetic mil style belts are too flimsy. A Tenicor ABDO mag pouch is the only other item attached to the belt.

I am leaning toward the Tenicor Zero 1.0 standard thickness belt. I like the minimalist buckle and design of the belt and I also do not like bulky buckles like the Cobra buckles. Are there any other belts out that meet my preferences? I'm looking for synthetic as well as stiff but thin leather belts recommendations.

I've used the "Summer Special" design from Milt Sparks for decades. It's extremely comfortable, concealable, and secure. Other holster makers such as Ryan Grizzle ("Country Boy") and Tim Thurner (TT Gunleather) do great work too and usually have a shorter wait time. Here's the holster with my Sig P365X:

Blue Alpha is one of my favorite belts. Almost no buckle and fits perfectly all the time.

Kore belt. I have quite a few gun belts and for the past couple of years, I always grab the Kore first.

Kore, Nexbelt, or 5.11 Tactical, all stiff and all work well.

I failed to mentioned is this is my first foray into IWB. Previous experience is limited to strongside OWB in a pancake holster with a Kimber CDP and G17 but mostly the same G19 I'm using now.

The Blue Alpha looks promising at a very nice price point. As for the Nexbelt, Kore and 511, how much more bulk do you feel their buckle add if you use them for AIWB? I am thinking about future proofing this when I go AIWB when I get a non-stiker fire pistol. I like the Constantine but that is for appendix carry only.

As for the Kore and Nexbelt, their buckles have very minimal bulk, actually quite thin and light. These two belts offer great adjustment options as they are ratcheting and adjust in 1/4" increments. The buckle on the 5.11 Tactical is similar to the instructor belt buckles and is aided in securing the belt with a Velcro tab at the end of the strap.

I have a Kore belt. If I AIWB and the buckle gets in the way, I'll just shift the buckle over and out of the way. The belt is thin but very stiff.

When I handed my Kore belt to a TSA guy, he actually commented on how stiff the belt was and started searching it for hidden knives. lol

I just got my first Kore. Love it. More to come.

I wore a kore belt every time I left the house for 4 years before it showed signs of distress. that was about 3 years ago. I'm a big man so I ratchet down hard on them to keep my pants up and my gun tight to my body.

I have 4 of them now in different colors and buckles. I doubt I'll wear anything else at this point.

Thanks everyone for the responses. I looked at Kore's website. I liked the amount of belt type and buckle type options. Looks like they can be mixed and match to dress up or down. This is nice if I have to dress up and tuck in my shirts. Anyone can comment on the thickness of the dress gun belts in relation to metal holster clips like Crossbreed's or Tenicor's T1s?

I think Wilderness Tactical manufactures both the Blue Alpha and Tenicor Belts. I have a 5 stitch Instructor belt. It's a sturdy belt for sure, but maybe too stiff and the metal buckle is heavy. I will get either 3 stitch Low Pro EDC or the frequent flyer next. Pay attention to their sizing instructions, you cannot just order your regular pant size.

For appendix carry the Hunter Constantine belt is pretty amazing. I'm carrying a P365XL in a Tenicor holster with T1 clips and it is comfortable.

Late to the party but I like my Tenicor Zero Heavy belt.. works well with their holster and mag carrier.

TXLE,
If we can help, in the belt area, just let us know.

I’ve been doing the Kore belt recently, they offer 10-15% discount at times once signed up with an email. I thought shipping free or cheaper past $100.

I have 2 lined up to go out as Christmas presents. I wouldn’t normally be doing that now, influence from my sister.
