In the world of everyday carry (EDC) and concealed carry, having the right equipment is just as important as having the proper mindset and training... Continue reading at www.thearmorylife.com/what-is...
Got the newer kore USA made belt in coyote and never had a belt this nice. Very well constructed and so adjustable its already my new favorite belt. Great to see they're making some in the USA.
Kore for me. I use their nylon belts for open/fullsize ccw (my edc pistol is an M&P 2.0 10mm), and Kore's dress belt for subcompacts (Glock 29 10mm). I don't bother to even try different brands anymore. I have 4 years on my first Kore...still going strong.
I have 5 years of daily use on on kore belt (over 1800 days!) And I'm finally at the point of replacing it. Its definitely lost most of its rigidness and I have to keep it very tight to keep the gun up. I'll probably buy another one of it.
New to CC, and did not realize the importance of a decent belt. Your review was very helpful. Thank you, Oh by the way, the promo picture looks like Kurt from Blindside TV show :-)
Kore has it nailed. I discovered over the years that when you have a firearm on your waist or inside a snug perfect fit is everything with your rig and reinforcement needs to be there so theres no sag.
After 4 yrs I think my 2 kore belts are the best quality and best to adjust that I have ever used. All my other gun belts are not easy to adjust so they never fit right esp when the weight of my gun and mags is pulling my pants down. Kore I can tighten perfect and it is stiff but still comfortable.
At this point in my life, I cant have a gun but I do love edc belts that are practical for every day use that look good and are comfortable, any suggestions?
@@ronaldshepherd5992many people who don’t care about guns buy gun belts over normal belts for a reason. They are just better than flimsy belts you buy off walmart
I love kore but I've had both the dress belt and gun belt both only lasted 1 year of EDC use if they didn't fall apart they would be the best I think they should do better for the price
My kore belt has to be over 5 years old and works amazingly well for that much time cause I am really hard on belts and my traditional belts are near scrap like after a year.
Overall Kore brand to beat. I was at Shot Show this year and everyone was eagerly waiting to swap out there existing gun belt with new Kore belt. They did an exchange, very cool idea. I dumped my Nextbelt to the pile cause it was starting to fray after a few months and they didnt want to warranty it. Just examining it you can see how much better it is.
I have had 2 nexbelts over that last few years. I am a bigger guy. I have had the material inside of the break around the 1 year mark on each. The stitching came apart on both. Nothing came apart but to have all those threads coming out and fraying around the edge is unsightly on a belt you spent around $100 on.
Kore is def the way to go for cc comfort especially when you appendix carry. I run a p365 most days either at 3 oclock owb or aiwb depending on what I am doing and wearing from my 30 yrs of ccw experience none of these other belts have the ability to adjust on the move and in small tiny increments to your rig sits solidly. Its def the best gun belt I ever ran for edc esp for the price.
I have 3 Kore gunbelts over about 6 years , and all of the track started slipping were it is worn. Its still my favorite EDC belt , but they do need to be replaced
You should put a "riggers" belt in for an example. Standard use for most all grunts. Very thicc nylon cotton webbing with hook pile tape line to secure with the rigger buckle. But it sucks overall for carrying a sidearm. My POS 25 yo Beretta from the 1990s always made my belt sag. Which is why most all new safariland/serpa Holsters have a leg retainer around the mid thigh. There needs to be a better combat belt for the military.
Sure, in uniform or duty clothes. I think the riggers belt is pretty decent. It's one of those things where not much gets developed because uniform standards get in the way. But I am not going to get seen wearing a riggers belt, grunt style t shirt, and basic training combat boots at the bar.
I went with KORE about a year ago, it's one of their 1.75" wide belts, & is fantastic. Couldn't be happier with it, & I'll never go back to a basic belt again. ...I don't even put tactical stuff on it [yet], it just holds my pants up
We have a rack of Kore belts at our indoor range in Dallas and all the guys here wear them. We do have a few other brands but I can tell you the kore sells the best and folks actually come back to buy more which never happened before.
My Korean belt is the old buckle type, the track has a hump in it and it's SUPER difficult to get on and off... very disappointed in that, but its still an amazing belt
Rigidity is important but I personally think the Nexbelt is too rigid. Even when cinched down correctly, it feels like I'm wearing a hula hoop. It doesn't conform to my waist very well at all. I wear a 26" waist and it flares he waist of my pants to where it just looks funny.
Agonic EDB checks almost all the boxes I need : elastic rigidity for comfort while walking, sitting,driving - rigid only where it's need it due to its movable placard....never going back to a Kore type of belt - rigid is not the way for me, the worst skin rush after a day of wearing a Kore....the buckle is just tick,very prominent,you are just forced to use it on a side, and also ,the way that the belt ,due to it's rigidity, it was pushing and printing into my T-shirt like a hula-hoop - just no,it doesn't do it for me
Got the agonic belt but it's too 'Timmy Tactical' looking and you cant get the fit adjusted right to secure my gun it either is too tight or too loose of a fit. And it was $80. At least if was easy to return for refund.
Dickies has a great ratchet belt that's way better then my leather kore essentials belt. And its not to worst then my nylon kore essential belt. Truly there's no need for more then that Walmart Dickies belt for basics edc. By that I mean gun 1-2 mags and your pocket stuff. I bought the dickies belt after my leather kore essential fell apart, and I needed a dress belt.
I checked Kore site and they got a whole bunch of USA made belts inc multicam models too. Very cool lookin. I ordered 2 of them just now. You folks should check your facts before you open your hole.

Great review. Well covered points.
EDC Co belt is just right for me, rigid in certain spots where holster and firearm are at and loose on the other spots. Very comfortable
Kore for me. I use their nylon belts for open/fullsize ccw (my edc pistol is an M&P 2.0 10mm), and Kore's dress belt for subcompacts (Glock 29 10mm). I don't bother to even try different brands anymore.

Precision Holsters Tactical Conceal belt - over 6 years and it still looks new. Awesome belt.
Thanks. Alot of useful info
I always suggest Daltech Super Bio EDC gun belt because it’s the most comfortable gun belt I’ve tried & mine has served me well the past 5 years.
Thank you! Going with the nexbelt 👍🏻
Like the 6th year of runnin my kore ratchet holster belt and it is still my edc belt.
Thanks, good review.
I love the nexbelt, the adjust is perfect, single hand adjustment.
How would you say the Nexbelt compares to the Kore or Mastermind if you have experience with either of those?
I agree with other commentors here Kore Essentials definitely makes the best belt straps for edc.
Iv had my kore belt for 4 years now and it still functions great! About to order another kore belt. Will never buy any other brand edc belt

I've tried them all, Kore, Nexbelt, etc. My favorite EDC belt is Blue Alpha's Hybrid EDC, very comfortable - great belt.
How would you say the Kore and the Nexbelt compare? And any holster recommendations for full-size IWB appendix carry?

Ill just get a old west gun belt. Solves everything.

been using ARES gear since it arrived, for me it is the one.... 🤠

As far as I’m aware, KORE is the only company who offers a 1.75”. Everyone else is 1.5”.
comfort quality and I would include fit too and I say kore is the winner
Actually Kore has a bunch of USA Made belts on there site. I bought 2 in Dec and they are super friggin well made. The webbing is tough af.
Good info, I've been wanting to buy an edc belt, my regular belt has just stretched out, sags....weapon sags and flops around.
If you have a shitty carry system, it makes no difference what you’re actually carrying.
We have a rack of Kore belts at our indoor range in Dallas and all the guys here wear them. We do have a few other brands but I can tell you the kore sells the best and folks actually come back to buy more which never happened before.
Where in Dallas? Need to try

Blue alpha only. Lifetime warranty easy to wear
I like the blue alpha
How is the we the people belt for Aiwb?
What optic is that?
new kore belts are best hands down for everyday
my 2 kores belts are stiffer than my next belt tactical. I like both but my fav is kore multicamo black belt for the look.
WTP belt that I got was way too much hassle !
If you are poor the dickies track belt or dickies hd padded work belt are good for $15-19
I got that we the people belt.. Put it right back in the bag and returned it... Pain in the ass to put on
Just because it's rigid doesn't mean it's comfortable. Some of the more rigid ones hurt my back
Rigidity is important but I personally think the Nexbelt is too rigid. Even when cinched down correctly, it feels like I'm wearing a hula hoop. It doesn't conform to my waist very well at all. I wear a 26" waist and it flares he waist of my pants to where it just looks funny.

Kore belts all day. My old Nexsbelt failed me. WTP is over done.
I wear run the kore as my daily with glock 19. wtp is too stiff for edc.
You still liking the core belt? I was hearing the kore x7 is thick so can dig into you ? Im wondering what’s a good size to go with .
BFG lo-pro edc belt. Kore was actually my least favorite, it's awful for AIWB
Hunter Constantine belt
thats an old old kore belt. the new ones are better than that and kore makes smaller buckles
That kore belt is old. newer ones are the best Ive ever used.
What would u recommend for a nice leather edc belt?
Kore has leather belts with the ratchet system and an internal stiffener. Sharp looking stainless buckles too.
Kore
I used to love nexbelt until hunter Constantine changed my life
Blue Alpha. End game.
Dickies has a great ratchet belt that's way better then my leather kore essentials belt. And its not to worst then my nylon kore essential belt.

my dickys belt, the fake leather broke in half, it's probably OK if you don't get it wet or sweaty
My Kore track has worn out
kore belt wore out on the track area....
Kore = China. They have ONE belt that is manufactured in the US, with non US parts.
Oh stfu. Everything is made in china.
I checked Kore site and they got a whole bunch of USA made belts inc multicam models too. Very cool lookin. I ordered 2 of them just now. You folks should check your facts before you open your hole.
Stand back further from the camera. Geez.
Nexbelt is trash, it has a cardboard core and it will fail
So, man has walked on the moon and sock puppet joe got 81 million votes but not one belt builder offers a model that passes through belt loops?🤡
Talk less show more .
None of those
new kore belts are best hands down for everyday
