    Belt Sources for wear with Modern Utility Kilts?

    Can anyone recommend a place where one can find a good selection of belts that will go with a variety of modern utility kilts such as Utilikilts? I've found many kilt belts for traditional kilts on the various sponsors websites but not much for modern kilts.

    I have checked the out the ones on the Utilikilts site but they appear to be out of the plain 2" black belts with single tang belt buckles.

    Thank you!

    Andy, When I went to purchase the new TDK kilt from 5.11 Tactical. I found some nice looking belts that I think would be perfect for modern utility kilts. Here is the one that I ended up purchasing: http://www.511tactical.com/All-Produ...1-34-Wide.html

    When it came in, I was very impressed with the quality and feel. Hope this helps, Eyler

    I use a Dewalt belt for my Utilikilt. http://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DG5198-...8866168&sr=8-2

    Andy,

    When I bought a TDK kilt from 5.11 Tactical, I bought this belt to go with it: http://www.511tactical.com/All-Produ...1-34-Wide.html

    When it came in, I was impressed with the quality and feel. Very sturdy and rugged. Hope this helps, Eyler

    My favorite belts for my Utilikilts are supplied through AmeriKilts. If brown isn't listed ask. Great belts, basic, and last forever.

    You might also wanna take a look at Robert Pel's belts at RKilts.

    I use a 2" webbing work belt like one of these here. Same colour too, Chocolate brown goes nicely with black. You don't even have to take it out of the belt loops when you wash the kilt. How's that for idle?

    I was very pleased with an Ebay vendor "Dangerous Threads"
