5.11 Tactical 59501 109 Classic Brown Leather Casual Belt

I got this belt about 6 months ago and I have been using it every day for carrying my compact semi-auto in an IWB holster and for a dozen or so local USPSA/IPSC shoots (with a paddle-holster). I was initially very impressed with the strength and stiffness of the belt, especially for the relatively low price. After the first month or so, however, the edges of the belt began to peel away from the polymer insert where the buckle and the clip of my holster rubbed on them. Several months later the insert started to break where I normally buckle it so only the thin leather shell is holding it together. So, I can no longer trust the belt to hold together and I'm looking for a more durable one, I expected a little better from 5.11...

Bottom line: it looks pretty good and will probably work well if you only use it for carrying occasionally, but I wouldn't recommend it if you plan to use it every day.

I bought two of these belts. First one lasted about a year, second one about four mounths. I have to agree with Joe K., both belts broke the inner "permastiff" part of the belt at the buckle. Only has a 30 day warranty, I won't buy another one.
