Wilderness gun belt

Anyone wear Wilderness belts daily? I have heard really good things about them. I leaning toward a Wilderness instructor, but was wondering how they look with casual clothing. Maybe I should just go with a leather belt. Anyone have any pics wearing a Wilderness?

I don't wear one, but here is a link.
- Wilderness Tactical Products, LLC

I personally much prefer a leather belt.

Regards,
Jerry

I have two of them and wear them off and on between my Looper Leather belt days.
They (Wilderness) work very well, but are not for dress pants...fine with jeans or 5.11 shorts. My untucked shirts cover them anyway.

Most customers I have met wear them daily. Many have told me that they own leather belt. But they say that the wilderness Instructors belts are stiffer and carry better for their EDC.

I own one and think it's great!!.

I wear a Wilderness Combat Shooters Model Instructor belt daily. It's got a strip of polymer sandwiched between the webbing for extra rigidity. A lot of people seem to think they're overkill but I sometimes carry a lot of gear on my belt. It's great. It carries anything I put on it without rolling or sagging.

I think they look fine with casual clothes but I don't tuck my shirts in so no one ever sees it anyway.

Personally, I don't think they look good. I think that way about camo also.
I normally wear something like Dockers with a casual shirt with a square tail and leave it untucked. Leather belts look much nicer to me.

Regards,
Jerry

I don't tuck, so looks don't matter to me. They work great. A really nice thing about them is that they are micro adjustable. Don't get me wrong, I love good leather belts, but the Wilderness is so adjustable they can't be beat for comfort. If your IWB one day then OWB the next, or using different CCW's, the micro adjustment is the cats a$$! With leather belts, sometimes one hole is just a little too tight and the next one is just a little too loose. Never a problem with a Wilderness.

I would have typed exactly the same thing.
