What's a good belt that's comfortable to wear under your pack belt?
Looking at Marsupial Gear's stretch belt, Kuiu's climbing belt, Grip 6, Black Ovis....too many choices!

I am very happy with the Marsupial but haven’t used it with a heavy pack yet. Did not like the black ovis and the buckle fell apart after one use. The kuiu belt I have does not stay tight.

I wear a 1-1/2" wide nylon belt with a clipped buckle, like a backpack strap. I think it came with a pair of light weight fishing pants I bought. It's the lowest profile belt I have, and is by far the most comfortable under my pack hip belt.

Ditch the belt and go with suspenders and never look back...

I have the Kuiu and the Black Ovis, I'm still looking like you are if that tells you anything! Get something with some stretch! Going to try the First Lite belt next.

I like the KUIU. Don't know how many years old, like they said, still looks new.
Belts that stretch??? Had an uncle that wore his pants up just below his nipples.... he had a stretchy belt....
Maybe I'm missing the concept.... maybe yoga pants, no belt at all...... =D

Been using a grip 6 ultralight this year under the pack and no issues. Holds tight and doesn’t interfere with buckle.

Only people with too much time on their hands wear suspenders

I just wear a smooth adjustable belt and suspenders when I pack out meat!
I have no ass, and my pants always fell down before I did this.
CNELK.. I work almost 80 hours a week... But I only wear suspenders when I hunt! LOL!

I’ve been wearing a grip6 and like it quite a bit. Groovebelt looks interesting but it’s a stretchy belt so....

No need for a belt when you got a sling shot.

I have the Kuiu climbing belt and it's not bad but with a heavy pack it can pinch on the buckle. They have a new low profile buckle I'd like to try.

LOL....removed the pic. It was a bit much. At least he was manscaped for the season....thought it went well with Rob's Teton Backside post......LOLOLOL
On a serious note, I prefer to wear my Duluth Trading Dry on the Fly pants which come with a woven cloth belt. Hunting, scouting, anything...my fav. Lots of easy access pockets, light, comfortable and dry quickly.
