Well, the days of detectives wearing polo shorts and 5:11 cargo pants at my station have officially ended. Apparently the way to connect with citizens who have a strong perception of socio-economic & racial injustice, is to fabulously out dress them in a full suit, tie and coat (in Arizona).
Cops in ties, brilliant. Mine will be clip-on.
At any rate, a typical dress belt won't support a sidearm, mags, badge, cuffs, recorder, flashlight, etc.
I'm contemplating using a shoulder holster, *gag*, really.
Has anyone ever used one, know what features to look for in comfort and design? The Galco Miami Classic (Sonny Crockett) looks well regarded.
Yes, I'm disenchanted. Of course, if I have to dress like an IRS agent, then I won't be motivated to get my hands dirty at all. "Detective, he's getting away!"... Yes, yes he is. Don't I look smart though?
Apparently, the current detective look is too tactical, and off-putting to the citizenry.
So my choices are some kinda "dressy" belt that'll hold good weight, or a Sonny Crockett special shoulder holster and the pointing and giggles that it'll bring.
Is a shoulder holster as absurd as it looks?
