Anyone try the Beltman horsehide belt?
Just wondering if it is worth the extra money?
My IWB holster is horsehide, and I like it a lot, just never saw horsehide in a belt before.

Haven't tried their horse. I like their other belts though.

Yes I have one of his Horsehide belts. They have a shiny finish making it a great dress belt. Mine is 1.25" and looks great with a suit or jeans. Unfortunately I lost weight and it no longer fits me but he makes a very nice horsehide belt. I am not sure if I would spend the extra on horse if it would be a jeans/dockers type belt.

I have a horsehide in the natural finish, it is much lighter than the picture on the website but is a great belt. I also have a cowhide belt from them. I don't see the horsehide as being any higher quality or doing anything that the cowhide won't do.

I have a couple cowhide holsters that have gotten "softer" over the years, and do not retain as well as they used to. Same with a cowhide belt I have. About 7 years old and very thick (thickest leather belt I have ever seen), but getting flimsy.
Couldn't imagine my horsehide holster getting softer, at least not for a longggg time, so I was thinking mabye the belt will stay stiff for a long time also.

Have the 1.25 inch in horsehide and going on year two with it. Looks good with dress clothes that I wear for work and still fits with jeans. It is very stiff, not need to worry about wear on mine so far. It holds a pistol as well as any 1.5 inch belt I have (Rafter Gunleather and Galco COP belts). I don't think you can go wrong with beltman...
