I purchased a new belt almost a month ago. Its two layer bullhide with a stiffner sewn between the layers. The holster doesn't touch the floor. This belt is so stiff i can hold my pants up by one hand in the rear middle of the belt with my keys, wallet, empty holster, flash light, full 15rd mag and cell phone. The open end of the belt drops only a couple inches. Bought the belt from thebeltman.net.
