A belt has to do more than hold your trousers up. For hunting, airsoft and everyday use, it must carry the weight of a holster, knife or pouches without twisting or sliding down, and it must be quick to open and adjust. In this category you will find tactical nylon belts, classic leather and canvas belts, belts with built-in pockets, and braces and a harness.
From Pentagon Tactical we have the 35 mm Regal belt with a cam buckle, the Chuck belt with a ratchet buckle and the Alissos utility belt with four pockets. Deerhunter supplies leather belts, stretch canvas belts with a slide buckle, the ATLAS Game belt with two front pockets and a large rear pocket, and braces with clips or buttons. Our own HH Tactical Nylon Belt is the affordable everyday belt, and the Nuprol PMC Harness is for anyone building their loadout around a MOLLE belt.
What to look for
Buckle type: A cam buckle like the one on the Pentagon Regal adjusts steplessly and opens with an upward pull, while a ratchet buckle like the one on the Pentagon Chuck tightens in small steps. A classic prong buckle on a leather belt gives fixed holes and a more traditional look.
Stiffness and purpose: If the belt is to carry a holster or other kit, it must be stiff enough not to sag under the weight. A stretch canvas belt is comfortable for everyday wear and long walks but is not made to carry kit.
Width: Check the width against your belt loops and the holsters or clips you want to mount. The Regal belt is 35 mm wide and one size, with 1360 mm of webbing.
Storage in the belt: The Pentagon Alissos and Deerhunter ATLAS Game have built-in pockets, so you can carry small items without a backpack or vest – the ATLAS Game is made for hunting, shooting and dog training.
Braces and harness: Braces hold your trousers in place without having to cinch the belt tight around your waist, and a harness moves some of the weight from a MOLLE belt onto your shoulders.
Who is it for
Airsoft players who want a stable belt for a holster and kit will find it among the Pentagon belts and the Nuprol harness. Hunters and dog handlers get belts and braces from Deerhunter that match their hunting trousers, while the leather and nylon belts cover jeans and everyday wear.
