Didn't have time to search for something cheaper so I bought this belt. I am a size 34 waist and it was way too big. I had to cut it off and redo the velcro.

This is a great gun belt. Really sturdy and tough. I wear a 38" waist pant and this fits perfectly. The only thing I haven't tried yet is wearing it with an IWB holster. I'm still waiting for my holster to be made but I'm sure it will be a good fit.

This is a very good belt solid enough to support any large auto or revolver in a good holster. I like it!!!

I wear a size between 34-36 depending on the pants. The belt was too long for me because I wanted to wear a mag holder on the opposite side of the holster. Since the belt runs long it overlaps past the area where the mag holder would be, and the belt is too thick to loop it twice through the mag holder. It is hard to loop once through the holster/mag clip to begin with because is so thick. Some have suggested cutting it down and resewing the velcro, but because of its tough construction that is not easy. I rather buy a different one.

I purchased this for use in USPSA and Steel matches. It easily holds my holster and 2 mag pouches very steady and comfortably. It's a little difficult feeding the end of the belt through the buckle and back at first due to the stiffness of the belt. But once buckled it stays in place and is easy to adjust.

The belt is great when using with compatible clothing and gear. the belt is a bit too long! I am a size 36 and I have PLENTY of belt left. I would recommend getting a belt that is the smaller end of where you are at normally. Also make sure your holster and pants/shorts will accomodate such a wide belt. But as always Black Hawk delivers!!!

This belt does not loosen up as the design prevents that. I also believe that it's heavy enough and that the material is stout enough to prevent stretching

I purchased this belt to go with the drop leg BLACKHAWK holster I got. I works great. Not too bulky and not too cheap. Great holster for the range, and you can wear it with regular blue geans.
