Looking to order my first belt from them. I'm looking at the 1.25" because most of my wear is dress pants, will this be enough to carry a PM9 or Glock 26 or will I regret not getting the 1.5". thanks for any input.

You will be super please with the 1.25 inch belt.........I carry a full size Kimber 45 on this same belt........no problems.

Stick with the 1.25" and if you are really concerned, they can add an internal stiffener that will help distrubute the weight. Honestly though, I don't think you will have any trouble as is.
Good luck!

My Milt Sparks 1.25 carries my 4" Kimber or G19 with no issues. You should be fine.
I got the 1-1/4" belts from Beltman and they are enough to carry the HK 45C or the Ruger SP-101.
I didn't get the stiffener because I wanted the Velcro insert option; you can't get both.
After wearing them, I find that I would not have needed the stiffener.
I wear a 1-1/2" beltman bullhide, with out the stiffner, absolutely love it.
I have the 1 1/2 bullhide w/stiffener and I have no problems carrying my heavy Walther P99 AS and 4 15 round 9mm mags :-)

How much are these belts, and how well do they stand up to daily use?

No one seemed to touch on this. I've only seen one pair of pants that wouldn't support a 1.5 inch. They were some weird, overpriced, Italian import dress pants.
Anything you buy here, pretty much, will fit a 1.5 inch belt. It's what I wear. It's all I wear.

I use their 1.25" standard bullhide to carry my G26 in an Mtac or Brommeland MaxCon daily. They have held up far better than some other belts I paid more for from other popular makers.
I ordered a 1.5" cowhide. It should be here within two weeks. I've heard nothing but good about them!

I have another brand 1.5" belt only 1/8" thick and I do have some dress pants it will not fit, I also have yet another brand in a 1.25 I wear on those occasions. Check your loops!
I bought the 1.5", 7 hole, with stiffener and wear it daily! Awesome belt!

I have a 1 1/2" black and it is great. I would get 1 1/4" or even 1" if I were to wear with dress slacks.
