Well everyone,
I decided to go for the crossbreed belt. I decided on this belt because i was so happy with their holster and I love their customer service. It was a hard choice because i wanted to try the belt with the kydex inserts but i was on a budget and that would have been a little more expensive.

I ordered on 4/16 and just got back from a Florida vacation yesterday the 29th and it was in my mail box. So they were fast. I love the belt. Its solid, the hardware on it is very nice and it is casual, yet i could get away wearing it in more formal settings.

I also ordered the velcro kit as well. With my shirt tucked in you can not see anything and my glock 23 vanishes. However, my only problem is with a tighter t-shirt, the belt is kinda thick and prints a little. Normally the supertuck can not be seen without the belt. I don't think this problem is a crossbreed problem. I think any belt that is 1/4 inches thick would do this. I guess i will just get bigger shirts from the thrift store or something. Does any one else have this problem with a thick belt? to they break in and does it get easier. Anyways overall i am very pleased. Ohh and for all you fans, yes there was a pack of cherry life savers. . thanks again for every ones input.

ME TOO The Comp-Tac Contoured, Kydex reinforced, Velcro lined belt is the best I ever owned. And I used to make belts; my dad made boots and saddles professionally for many years; since the 1940s, before he passed away in 2008.
I once thought about Crossbreed, but didn't see that they were Kydex reinforced, so I didn't order one. I love my Comp-Tac with its 2 layers of stiff leather, with kydex reinforcement inside, and Velcro on the back. I COULD carry a IWB Glock 19+IWB Glock 27+ IWB Glock 26 and a 1911 in a Safepacker, hanging outside off the belt comfortably, though I'd usually only wear that much hardware to Church.

Does the kydex make that big of a difference? I have never thought about it. Would it help make the belt last a very long time with out starting to sag?

Thanks everyone for the input do far. I'm thinking I might want to go with the crossbreed belt but I am still undecided. Their customer service is so good I would love to support them. Plus I was impressed with my supertuck. However that price of the double duty is pretty good. I wish I would have been a little faster because I would of picked up that 5.11 for that price deal for sure. Ohwell.

Hey everyone,
I posted a few weeks back on the getting the Cross breed super tuck. It was recommend that i buy a good gun belt. Well sure enough, i was walking into Academy while it was pouring down rain with my one year old daughter in one arm, and re adjusting my sagging gun with the other and pop! yup my cheap belt which was slightly frayed to begin with snapped right in half! SO luckily i was quick enough to grab my falling rig (and pants, I'm real skinny so they went straight for the ground) in time to keep everything concealed. Anyways, the walk of shame through the cold rain trying to keep my daughter dry and my pants and gun up was a lot of fun and made me think i need a gun belt sooner than later. Gravity works fast on pants with a Glock clipped on. i have been fishing the forum for some info and have been reading some of the reviews of different belts. i was looking at a few but i want to get it right on my first buy as money is tight. these are some of the belts that i was looking into. if anyone uses any of these or has any opinion of them i would appreciate hearing from you. thanks everyone.

here are the belts i was thinking about:
