I've been wearing 1 of the 2 I have almost daily for 3 years. GREAT belts.http://agcustomgunleather.com/store/ou- ... gun-belts/
I don't have stiffiners, and have never found a need for them with these belts. I recommend 7 hole belts at 3/4" spacing as I find it easier to find a comfortable tightness both when carrying IWB and when not carrying IWB. A quality leather belt with break into you just the same way a pair of shoes or a custom holster will.
