    I like mine so far. Nice complement to the Zero...imho.

    BTW 'Frack, I assume the tail of the belt is velcro'd to the "main" belt, so do you have your sheath just on the tail, or around both the tail and the belt?
    I'm a "7" compared to most gun-guys, which means I'm a "3" on P-F.

    LOL!

    The sheath strap is around both parts of the belt.

    Of the three stiffness options, which is the go-to choice for AIWB? Do you want more flexible or more rigid, or in the middle?

    The five stitch seems to be a nice compromise, imho.

    Anyone know how the 3 levels of stiffness of the Wilderness series of belts compare to an Ares Aegis? I find the Aegis digs into my hips after an hour or two.

    I’d also be interested in a comparison of the stiffness between the 5 stitch and the standard Zero belt.

    The 5 Stitch is both thicker, and more rigid vertically. The two make an awesome combo. I love the original Zero, but there are times I like a bit more vertical stability without going overboard.

    The 5 Stitch remains plenty flexible in terms of circumferential comfort. (In other words, not a Hula Hoop.)

    Hope that helps.

    It does, thank you. The zero is my favorite belt so far, but I need to tighten it more than I really like to when holding up anything much heavier than a Glock 19.

    Also, how thin it is seems to let holsters with close set clips (like the DSG Orion or tenicor certum3) tilt fore and aft more than thicker belts.

    You've helped me, certainly. I'm using a LowPro EDC 5 stitch right now; the Swift looks like a nice upgrade so far.
