I am having trouble with all of my current belts, whether carrying a holster or not, but especially so with the extra load on the belt. I am also showing signs of what I believe to be a metals allergy because everywhere the belt buckles touch I get blisters after a few hours. I have pretty well decided that a duty belt type setup is going to be best for me, but I need something that is either Velcro or plastic clip latched just because of the metals issue. I have swapped over to suspenders for the time being just to keep pants up but that leaves nowhere for a holster, and I have a house full of fashion police that have placed me under house arrest if I’m wearing the suspenders, but for work I do wear the suspenders over a white t shirt and then put a polo over it. The metals issue has gotten so bad that even wearing a regular belt to dinner for a couple hours causes trouble.
I like the look of leather, but I really need no metal. I usually carry about 6 pounds on the belt, and I have a 40” waist so I know some belts stop in that length range. I’m very open to suggestions.
