I did not want to hijack any threads so started a new one.

I have several RafterS sharkskin belts, including both 1.25 and 1.5 inch. The 1.25 inch belts do not create a problem. However, the 1.5 inch belts are a little oversize and will not fit the belt loops in some holsters, for example Sparks and Brommeland to name two.

I just measured a 1.5 belt and found it to be 1.577" wide, and 1.29" thick.

Beltman is one belt always recommended in threads asking for advice. Would someone measure a 1.5" Beltman belt, and post it?

If you are inclined I would appreciate the same from HBE, Sparks, and any others who want to provide such info.
I have found it frustrating that some of my favorite holsters will not accept the RafterS 1.5" belts.

I have been using their 1.25" belts, and must admit that they work well, in spite of conventional wisdom to the contrary, and the holsters do not sag or move. Since I do not carry heavy guns like 1911 steel 5" guns I do not really need a 1.5" belt, but I just want one.

Thanks,
Jerry
