which wilderness belt to get? - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

ok i'm trying to find out which wilderness belt to get, either the 3 stitch, 5 stitch or the polymer lined. It's going to be for carry most of the time, and just want a good sturdy belt. Is the 5 stitch too stiff for all day wear (i'm a forklift driver).

thanks,
Shawn

Nobody?

Belts?
This may help. Also do a search for wilderness. There have been many threads on their products.

I got a 3 stitch. It works great.

I've got the 5 stitch and I absolutely love it. I was unsure of what to get, how comfortable, etc. If I could make the "tactical look" fit in with all my clothing options, I'd throw away every leather belt I own. I wear it all day as often as I can because it's very comfortable, with or without weapon. A buddy bought one two days after I got mine because I wouldn't stop bragging about the thing.

You can't go wrong with Wilderness.

I got the 5 stitch w/o polymer. Best belt I own.

My wife bought a 5 stitch belt for a gun class. I have since stolen it from her to use for USPSA matches. I love the quick adjustability (loosen it a bit when you are relaxing between stages or after the match).
If you wear mostly khaki/tan cargo pants/shorts as I do, the wilderness coyote color blends in pretty well, making it less obvious you have a "gun belt" on.
It is the belt of choice for instructors at Gunsite Academy and they wear theirs all day, every day.

Well a buddy locally suggested to go with either the 5 stitch or the belt with the polymer. I decided to get the polymer one in black and i'm going to get a O.D. in 5 stitch. maybe I'll have to get the coyote in 3 stitch

I picked up the 5 stitch from Wilderness a couple of weeks ago. Wore it several days to work (office job) and had no issues with it. I was afraid it was going to be a bit stiff for this type of use but it wasn't at all.

Could you give us a comparison between the 2?
