Picked up my first one today. A Bladetech 1.5''. (I'm fond of their "Nano" IWB for my Glock 19 and they're a local company to me.)
Holy Smokes, what a difference!

It's like an epiphany. Those who have not tried a true gun belt just don't know what they are missing. I have my second Belt Man belt on the way! (I'm excited!)

A nice gun belt really makes the difference. I bought my with my rig and I wear the belt most every chance I can.

A quality 2 layered gun belt will make all the difference in the world. But it's hard sometimes to convince some of the difference it will make.

I love my Cross Breed belt. I wear it all the time, even when I wear my shoulder rig.
It's night and day when carrying with a dedicated gun belt. Really important when carrying OWB b/c of the torque that's exerted by the weapon/holster hanging off your side. IWB is much better too b/c with the cinch-style adjustment you can get it set just right, not too loose, not too tight.
I just ordered a 5.11 1.5" belt with a stiffener. i am hoping it will be good to go. I sure will beat my walmart special though.

I've got a CrossBreed belt that I really like. I was skeptical about how much (if any) difference I would notice. It's night and day.

The first belt I wore was a Wilderness Instructor 5 stitch. Although I now have many others, I still go back to this one more than any other.

I received my 5.11 belt about a month ago and am amazed at the difference in comfort and fit it makes holding the IWB Colt Cobra snug and close. I did change the buckle cause I did not want to have to bend it sharply to get it tight.
