The importance of the belt in your carry system cannot be underestimated. Most belts are designed to support only the weight of your pants. The gun belt should be made out of tough dense leather and should be lined with leather. The total thickness should be approximately ¼”. My belts are reduced in thickness slightly in the buckle area to make buckling easier. The gun belts in this section are designed to comfortably carry the weight of your pistol and equipment.
Have you ever noticed the kink that develops in the rear of your belts? This is because your belt was cut in a straight line and is trying to conform to your body. The distance around your waist at the top of your belt is usually slightly less than your waist size at the bottom of your belt. This accounts for the bend or kink. The kink is also caused by the pants belt loops in the rear pulling down on your belt when you sit down. The solution is the contour curved belt. This style has been made for Western gun belts for years. Once you’ve worn a contour curved belt, you will find the straight cut belt noticeably less comfortable especially when the weight of your pistol and magazines have been added. The price is an extra $15.00 for this service.
In choosing which belt model is best for you, start by measuring the width of your pants belt loops. A second consideration is the weight of your pistol and equipment. A wider belt will give the heavier equipment more support. My belts are equipped with solid brass buckles. Nickel is available if requested. Colors available are tan or black.
There are several ways I determine the appropriate belt size to order. Belts CANNOT be exchanged should you get the measurement wrong! Please provide me with your pant waist size or you may measure a belt that fits well: Measure from the hole the belt is usually worn in to the point at which the tongue strikes the buckle – this measurement is the belt size you should order and is the most accurate, but I will also need your pant size.
It is a rule of thumb that your gun belt is 2.5” larger than your pant size.
