I ask because there's a fashion trend my wife says would look great on me. JCrew is offering Tie Belts -- Old school repp tie stripe belt.

This sort of belt is not the thick leather bluejeans belt on which I am used to hanging my cell phone, SureFire E2e, Vic SwissChamp, and numerous other pieces of gear.

The tie belt is simply not going to support any appreciable weight being attached to it. I am playing around with redistributing my belt gear.

Meanwhile, how do you folks who go without belts, perhaps in warmer weather, carry gear that would normally ride on a belt?
