I just traded in my leather looper for a 511 trainers belt.
My looper split at the stitching and the kydex was already broke and missing pieces. good belt but it just didnt make the cut
How long did you have it?
When I wear jeans, I wear a Filson, 1 1/2" double layer bridle leather belt

When I wear cargo shorts or fatigue pants, I use a 5.11, 1 1/2" trainers web belt

And when I'm hunting or at the range, I wear a SPEC-OPS, 1 3/4" Riggers belt

That particular one was less than a year. Maybe 6-9 months. It was brown leather with engraving, gold buckle.
I have owned that same Filson belt for a decade. It is a fine belt, but it does not compare to a dedicated reinforced gun belt. nothing about the quality of the work, which is excellent like every other piece of Filson gear I have had, but it was not designed for that type of duty. mine is as floppy as,... well as some other things.
Im betting Looper would have replaced that belt. they stand behind their gear like no body I have come across.
I know they would, ive met a few of them. They have great service, but I really switched to the 511 belt because I like the design better the the old style leather/buckle combo. Nothing against looper, i just wanted something different.

I have had my Looper for about 1.5 months ans wear it when every can, swapped out the buckle but I love the belt my only con is either Looper's sizing is on the smaller side or I got fat without buying bigger clothing
