Riggers Belts
What are you guys using? I've tried BHI (I know, I know) LBT and now Special Operations Equipment. The SOE is by far my favorite. Thicker, stiffer, bomb proof.

I have a BHI that was given to me, and I also have an HSGI that is by far the better of the two.

I am using Eagle, but am looking at SO Tech, who has the stiff ones on sale, or their SERE version, which has a moneybelt built in.

I actually wear two belts...
When working I wear a " leather belt " for concealment or at all times.
Once I need to "jock -up", I have an "eagle belt" fitted with a triple 9mm mag pouch and a double M4 mag pouch...which I strap over my leather belt.

NDD,
My belt is a "dress belt"...I can wear it with any type of slacks, I decide to wear. 
Most of the time you will catch me in starched/pressed 5.11 or Dockers.

I wear pressed 5.11s all the time. Nobody even notices the rigger belt and I have the in the appropriate colors. I haven't worn one with a suit yet, but its a matter of time.
