i used it with my kuiu talus pants this season and the belt got the job done.

Belt for hunting

What kind of belt do you guys use when hunting or hiking? I use a regular leather belt but wondering if others are more comfy. Any brand in particular? I have been looking at the Kifaru ones but they are kinda spendy.

First lite, it is made of a stretchy flat webbing. Lays flat under pack belt and doesn’t always need tightening like regular web belts.

I used the Marsupial Gear belt last season. Great belt, holds up your pants, doesn't bind under the pack belt. I highly recommend it.

I do pretty good with a Bison Designs webbing belts. I think Kuiu rebranded a Bison belt, it’s the only USA made item they sell. You can find them pretty cheap on Sierra Trading Post They are light and get the job done.

i also find myself wearing my leather work belt. It’s a bit wider, maybe 1-1/2 inches thick but works well too.

I like my Bison Design belt that I got at REI. It’s a little stiff, but it is thin, doesn’t budge, and doesn’t pinch with my pack belt on.

Check out Hill People Gear belt. None better.

I just got one and wore for the first time. Loved it, kept pants right where I wanted and didn't feel it at all. Good price too

Usually wear either my Krytpek or Kuiu belt; just depends on which gear I am wearing.

If I am wearing a sidearm, then it's a leather belt as it provides better support for the sidearm.

Another vote for the FL belt. I bought one in February on a whim and haven't taken it off since. It's extremely comfortable and doesn't require re-tightening.

I wish Kifaru still make their old school belts. They were lighter, and not as wide as the current. I have two, and wish I had two more.

Any new recommendations?

I have the Kifaru web belt and it has been comfortable and snag free.

I'll second the Arcade belts. Stretchy, low profile, holds up pants.

Me and a few freinds have had good luck with the HPG belt as well

I recently got a Grip6 and like the minimalist low profile buckle. I only have a few hours with it under a pack but like it so far.

I wear a military style Riggers belt, its comfortable and sturdy plus ive been wearing one for years so im used to it. But out of curiosity and may be a strange question, but im seeing a few different brands mentioned in here, is there more you guys look for when choosing a belt than comfort and "holds my pants up" function?
