+2 on The Belt Man for a no-nonsense solution. Of course, you will pay through the nose if you get the least bit fancy ~

When it comes to quality leather goods at a competitive price, I have always used a local guy who was trained as a saddle and tac maker. Kirkpatrick's Inc. http://www.kpatricks.com/ Brian makes the leather for duty gear and mounted units for many police and other agencies. Not all is fancy, but all is practical.

I use a 3 layer EMS belt, which is the most stable platform I have found for anything I may carry, firearm or otherwise ('Triple ply belts - inner core - polyolefin plastic for stiffness'). I have been using their duty and other gear for over 20 years. Even my wallet is one of theirs.

I have a Sharkskin belt from Wilson Combat. Not cheaply priced, but a long wearing, sturdy, comfortable belt, that works well.
