I have  2 sons sharing a pistol but we have 2  Blade tech stingray holsters and  2 CR speed double Pouch  for the pistol and no competition belt at all.

What belt would you recommend?   I have lbeen looking at the ELS belt system so they could share and move future shotgun shell caddies and rifle mags.

What are your thoughts of that system vs. a CR speed belt?

Does any other company make belts as small as the ELS?  My sons have a 24 and a 28" waist and the ELS is the only belt that seems to be sold in the smaller sizes.

If anyone has sons or daughters that have outgrown their belts let me know also.

Please advise.

I don't really see enough advantage in the ELS system to justify the added cost over CR Speed or DAA 2-piece belts. Blade-Tech makes some clip-on systems like ELS that can accomplish basically the same thing on a velcro belt, although I don't have firsthand experience with it.

Kids grow so fast I wouldn't spend that kind of $$$ on any fancy belt system. My boys use by hand-me-downs, and they do just fine. After all, I need an equipment edge to offset their young legs and help me stay ahead of them

BladeTech makes a TMMS system that's similar to the ELS.

I'd get the smallest CR speed or double alpha you can find and go from there.  Jones Tactical custom makes belts with inner/outer Velcro types.  A friend in the tactical world recommended them. I ordered an instructor belt and a couple of their inner belts to see how they are.  I'm still waiting as their lead times are lengthy.
