My nexbelt is falling apart. The plastic is all cracked up internally, and it's tearing where my holster sits. It's less than a year old. I need some recommendations for a new/better belt.

Gun belt or dress belt. For gun leather I use a laminate leather from Simply Rugged Holsters. Excellent quality!

https://www.aresgear.com/ worn mine daily for the last 11 years. It's made of diving webbing and is very stiff for a very solid positive draw. New they look nice enough to Wear to church. Mine is looking rough now but still very serviceable.

well I was about to suggest nexbelt as my son got his when he turned 21 and likes it but it seems they don't hold up

he has only had his about a month.

I have been using a belt I got from a old timer that made double thick stitched gun belts , unfortunately he isn't around any more.

my other belt is an Amish thick leather belt that seems to be holding up decent I got it at an Amish tack shop , which doesn't help you much trying to order one

what holster are you running ?

Big Foot 2" leather gun belt. Been wearing one for several years and it's still going strong, and I carry every day. They even make one with steel band laminated for heavy duty carry. Couple one of these with a good holster and you'll forget you are carrying. Until you get a good belt you don't realize how comfortable it can be and it helps conceal better as it keeps the gun tight to your body.

A county cop at my VFW Post gave me this advice: Get the thickest, widest leather belt you can fit in your belt loops and cinch it up as tight as you an stand it. I bought 2 from Cabelas, I am quite happy.
