Great belt - depending on color. - Spec Ops Airport Friendly Better BDU Belt

I bought this belt in 1.5" and 1.75" in OD green. I also bought it in 1.5" gray. The green versions are nice and stiff and hold up a holster/gun no problemo. But the gray wasn't up to snuff. First it wasn't gray, it was more of a foliage green/teal with a silky sheen to it. It was also very soft and is insufficient for carry. It's still a nice belt if you just need to keep your pants up and get through security checkpoints. The green belts get 5 stars. The gray belt gets 3 stars. So it averages out to 4. I'm afraid to try the black, tan, or coyote now. I'm afraid I might get another soft version.
