Normal dress belts are not made to carry any weight and will deform when used with a holster. One bog problem with new CHL holders is that they spend a lot of time finding a holster but not to find a good belt. I have been using a Wilderness Instructor belt for several years (may be close to ten but I cannot remember when I bought it). I also have the 5.11 version and it is a good one too. The Beltman and others make heavy/thick leather belts if you need something out of leather. Buy a good belt and it will last for years. Gun belts are made to hold the weight of the handgun and other accessories (light, extra mags etc.).
