I use the RafterS 1.25" belts with holsters which have 1.5" belt loops. I experience no problems of the holster shifting. I mostly wear OWB pancake holsters. When the belt is tightened it tightens the holster also as it bends slightly to fit your body.

I once tried a 1.5" RafterS, but it would not go through the loops of my Sparks I-BAK. Both were 1.5" with no slack, and the belt would not deflect enough for it to pass through the loops. For that reason I went to the 1.25" RafterS belt.

Some of my trousers do not have belt loops which will take the 1.5" belts.

If one wants to use the 1.5" RS belts, and order a holster it is well to tell the holster maker that the belt is fully 1.5" wide and the belt loops on the holster must have a little clearance.

Regards,
Jerry
