The inner belt worn w/ the outer belt & keepers sucks. If you wear a nylon belt & accessories it’s a colossal waste of time & money. Companies like Don Hume, Bianchi & Blackhawk have all left me incredibly disappointed & scratching my head. It wears down & falls apart very quickly. I get really pissed off when something breaks or falls apart while I’m using it. Besides, wearing keepers is a pain in the ass to take them off & put them on, don’t lose them, polish them, etc.
*A leather belt set-up will last for years but it still isn’t comfortable.
These days I wear a HSGI Suregrip belt w/ & a HSGI rigger’s belt w/ COBRA Buckle. I have Molle attachments all over my belt & that is how I attach all my gear. I’ve been using this equipment every day for a year & a half & its holding up far better than I ever expected. I work in a brutal environment where my equipment is abused often. It costs more no doubt, but it’s quality gear & it’s dependable.
Everyone says “buy once, cry once” & then buys shit made by whatever company. Save yourself the headache & buy quality gear from the start.
For the record, I have no affiliation w/ HSGI other than being a customer.
