Just had my tactical belt break and it was less then a year old. Originally brought from Gander Mountain. I am open to any suggestions. Besides my EDC it has to hold my pants up.
Kore Essentials, my wife and I have been wearing them for a good time now. What’s nice about this belt is the 1/4" adjustability. I adjust it depending on the weight/items I am carrying.
I’ve been wearing a NexBelt everyday now for 2 years. It shows mild signs of usage, but no issues. This includes carrying my 6 inch .357 revolver durning hunting season. Happy customer so far.
Another vote for Kore Essentials Tactical belt 
What is your EDC? A Kore does OK for me with a Glock 45 and a spare mag. Not so great with a 1911.
I just ordered a kore belt, Luckily my belt broke at home it would have been interesting to draw my Sig 365 with my pants down perhaps there is a training video how to do this 
If you want something that looks like a “normal” belt but is still rigid enough for a firearm check out the Magpul Tejas 2.0. I have never had any issues with mine! I also love my appendix edc belt from Nexbelt. Fun fact if you are a USCCA member you also have a 15% off code to Nexbelt on your Member Dashboard!
That’s a feature of Kore belts. They know when to break. 
For a leather belt, Hanks Belts. Have jasmine several years and looks and performs great.
Going to give a shout out to Bigfoot here. My second steel core belt has held up amazingly for 3 years now!
I lost weight and the first became too big, being steel core you cant add holes without a drill press. And they don’t recommend that…
Hanks Belts, 100-year warranty, I look forward to a new belt when this one only goes 99 years.

NOW you tell me. ![]()
Just goes to show that I need to spend more time on the forums.
Any experience with Bison Design Belts? They have assorted designed fancy quick release buckles and simpler heavy duty belts.
I have pro-deal pricing available through work but don’t know much about EDC belts save the “need for a heavy duty belt.”
As of now, I have a subcompact which I am likely to carry either in a pocket holster or appendix, though I have a hardshell Kydex IWB holster (which I need a wing for).
Thanks

I suggest putting Loctite thread lock (Blue 242) on the threads of any screws in your belt, holster and magazine pouches. You don’t want your rig to come apart.
I have a wolf tactical. I haven’t had it for long but so far it’s perfect. Not too stiff so I don’t want to wear it because it scratches my waistline but more then stiff enough to retain my holster.
This. Great belt!
Hanks belts are also good, but I like the ratchet system in the Kore belt.
I’ve been wearing KORE everyday. Nylon version worked good for classes / range.
But recently I’ve seen a shooter with a new (for me) KORE belt and was fascinated.
That might be my new tactical belt.:
Interesting. I tried one of the double belts with velcro, did not like it at all. If you get this, let me know how it works.
