TX303 - :tiphat: my humble apologies. I misread and understood kydex/leather holster, not reinforced belt - long weeks and busy mom made for a rush reply. I apologize again.

Love both Beltman's and Comp-Tac's belts but there is a problem with all of them. If you are wearing a clingy fabric or something like a tunic that that is somewhat tight around the hips, these belts stick out even if there is plenty of room. You end up looking sort of weird. They are great for tuck in but have to check on other styles.

The nylon Wilderness belts, or a double layer leather belt is stiff enough for IWB carry since the holster is held by tension between the belt and your body. The Wildnersess belts are not very lady-like, so maybe a leather belt with a buckle of your choosing.
I don't understand: what's wrong with having a really rigid belt? Wouldn't it be worst to have one that's not stiff enough, or is it just a comfort thing?
Cheers!
