Gun belt Kits need to be finished. All that HAS to be done is for the buckle to be attached with the included “Chicago” screws. Many people who do not need a “dress” belt opt for the kit. If you want to finish it completely all you have to do is burnish the edges, and dye it. Complete instructions are included.
If you carry a gun on your waist you DO NEED a gun belt! In fact, a proper belt is just as important as a proper holster. Normal store bought belts cannot come close to the stability and rigidity of a true “Gun Belt”. A real gun belt will distribute the weight of the gun around your ENTIRE waist, not just the part holding your gun. A typical belt cannot hold the weight of a fully loaded pistol tight against your body in a secure manner, because they simply weren’t designed to function that way.
What makes a “Gun Belt” different than a typical belt? Well, to begin with, these belts are over a quarter of an inch thick! By laminating two layers of leather together in the proper way, it becomes much stiffer and resistant to stretching under a load. The two straps of bullhide are also sewn with a very heavy thread for a bond that will last forever. It is finished off with a high quality roller buckle. This belt will handle any amount of gear. If you have the room for it, this belt will hold it. Guaranteed.
By purchasing your gun belt as a kit you will save BIG. You can finish your belt yourself, or wear it like it is if you love the look of natural leather. Our kits include the 1-1/2″ sewn belt that has been cemented together, sanded to even the edges and professionally sewn. The kit also comes with a pre-assembled keeper, the heavy duty roller buckle, and all of the hardware required for assembly.
The size of belt you wear with a gun belt will be different than a typical belt. Please follow the instructions below to determine the proper size of belt needed. Please don’t skip this step, but rest easy in knowing that you may exchange your belt for the proper size if you accidentally order the wrong size.
Measuring Option 1 (best)- Measure your current belt from the farthest tip of the buckle to the hole you use with all of your gear mounted.
Measuring Option 2 – Measure your current belt from the end of the buckle to the hole you use with no gear mounted and add 2-3 inches for inside-the-waistband carry.
Measuring Option 3 – Run a tailor’s tape through your belt loops, and add 2 inches for inside-the-waistband carry.
Measuring Option 4 (least accurate)- Add three to four inches to your pants waist size.

I would like to know if your belt can be worn with a military style buckle rather than
the buckle shown on your website?
Charles, you can put whatever buckle you want on these belts. Just unscrew the Chicago Screws and put your buckle on.
i would like to know if you have large size belts ..i need at least a 66 inch waist belt that i can use ……….thanks
Tony,
Our belts are offered up to a size 70″.
Are they all the same color? Can I get black or dark brown?
Douglas,
Only the finished belts are offered colored. You can get both black or dark brown.
Kydex reinforcing? Is that sandwiched between the leather?
Steve,
Yes sir, the kydex is in the middle of the belt to support the “bend” area about mid back.
I first want to start off by saying THANK YOU. This is the second Old Faithful product I have purchased and you guys have never disappointed. I received the belt as a Christmas gift from my brother and I was immediately impressed as soon as I got it in my hands. This is the stiffest and thickest gun belt I have seen. The leather is high quality and can’t possibly see it warping like some other leather belts that I’ve used in the past. I opted for the extra piece of kydex in the belt and it was worth it. I am using the belt now with my Old Faithful IWB holster. I also carry a multitool and flashlight on my belt. Great belt so far and very much look forward to many happy years with this belt.
Jordan,
We are happy to hear that you are enjoying your new belt. We greatly appreciate your business! Please let us know if you need anything.
What is the purpose of the long slot cut between the four regular belt holes. on your belt kit.
Richard,
The picture is a little confusing. That section of the belt is actually where the buckle attaches.
Does your 50 year warranty/30 day money back guarantee apply to your belts as well?
Jimmy,
Our belts have a different warranty than our holsters. If you receive the wrong size or are not happy with your belt, you are welcome to return it for a refund.
