Tru Spec Bdu belt or Uncle Mikes Instructors belt?

[Jimmy Deuce]

Looking at the two belts below. Not looking for a leather belt and I have narrowed it down to these to belts. Chime with any info. It will be used for mainly holding up my pants(mostly at work I do alot of bending, kneeling, and crawling under desks) and occasional range trip. Thanks.

Tru Spec BDU belt
The Tru-Spec Tactical BDU Belt is constructed of nylon webbing and features a hook & loop fastener. The belt is 1-1/2" wide.

Features
Nylon webbing
Hook & loop fasteners
1.5" wide
Metal buckle






Uncle Mike's Instructors belt
Uncle Mike's Reinforced Instructors Belt is an ideal choice for the range, the squad room or that rare day off. The 1.5" width is ideal for casual wear with khakis, jeans or BDUs. It is even sturdy enough to support a pistol should you head to the range.

Features
Based on the classic rescue or riggers belt
Ideal width (1.5") for khakis, jeans and BDUs
Heavy pistol support, thanks to polymer reinforcement between two layers of rigid nylon

I like Uncle Mike's for carry support. I think it would be too stiff to use it for daily dress though.

And the sizes run small.

Have you looked at the Wilderness Tactical instructors belt? I like mine.

Nirrad- Thank you for the info perhaps Uncle Mike's is over kill for regular use.



Lone Gunman- Thank you as well. Wilderness seems expensive. I am sure it is quality. I am starting to think "rigger or instructor" belts may be over kill.

I have worn a Blackhawk Instructor's Belt almost every day for the last 2 years and it has softened up over time and is really comfortable. It does not fit Dickie's belt loops though.

Another vote for Wilderness. I have 3,2 black and a tan. IMO best on the market. All of mine are the 5 stitch. Super customer service. Buy cheap, you buy often.

What do you plan to use the belts for?

I'm asking because you classified some of the suggestions as overkill.

I use one of these on a daily basis for a similar use case:

Mostly I use this type because I find "fashion" belts wear out too fast.

I don't like the velcro on the normal instructors belts. Too noisy.
