I'd like to get a nylon belt, is there a stylish nylone belt in the 1.25-1.5" range? Lets see some pics, and sources please. Thanks.

The Wilderness Original Instructor's Belt. I've got the 5 stitch model in Coyote and it looks quite good with chinos/khakis.

I own 2 of these and they work very well for me. Cabela's


Maybe one of these would fit your request - Also Cabela's

Opinion, not fact here. IF you are looking for a nylon GUN belt better think with STIFFENER.

My Wilderness w/stiffner is equal to but not better than my two leather gun belts - Galco Contour and The Beltman - both with stiffeners.

You always want your firearm where you placed it, every time...no guarantees with a limp belt that I'm aware of.

I have had Zero issues with the BELT I mentioned that was sold in three colors, BLK, OD and a Copper / Tan and blended well with Jeans or Kahkis. I'm using either the DeSantis 002 or a MaxTuck and a G19 and it goes where we go, Movies / Dinner or travel with the Wife. A heavier CCW would require a STIFFENER and Wilderness would be the brand but it defeats the OPs request of Stylish. Perhaps someone at Wilderness will see an opportunity here.

I bought an Ares Gear for it's looks. It's a great belt too.

I like the Ares, as well. I've got one in all black and one in Coyote / Black. Seems to blend in nicely with jeans, khakis, or dress pants.

+4. Been using an Ares for a few weeks now. Best gunbelt I've used. Takes a moment longer to thread through belt loops but supports a weapon and spare mag wonderfully and looks good doing it.

I've seen stylish nylon belts right next to the stylish fanny-packs at the local tacticool store.....
