I'm in the process of switching my carry rig from a not good Ruger LC9 in an excellent Raven Concealment Morrigan holster to a SiG M18 in a Phlster Flex rig. My intent is to suspend the rig on DCC clips and tuck a shirt over the lot. This will be necessary under most of the dress codes I have to deal with, though it can be supplemented with a vest or jacket in some cases. Belt must be leather, preferably 1.5" and absolutely not "tactical."
What I do not currently understand is the role of the belt. I've heard from Jon at Phlster that the traditional stiff hoop concealment belts don't work well for AIWB, but I've little information regarding belts and DCC clips. Obviously the belt is no longer directly load bearing, but it will affect various angles of the gun and associated kit.
What do I need to understand in order to select the correct belt, and what belts are recommended?
