Anybody wearing s 5.11 Tactical leather belt?

I'm looking in to buying a good concealed carry gun belt and was curious to see what yall's experience was with the 5.11 Tactical belts.

I bought a couple (black and brown) of these 511 belts a while back.

While they are very stiff belts that are not going to roll over even if you put a 1911 and several mag pouches on them, the edging on them is some kind of rubbery stuff that is peeling off of mine. It has a plastic insert to make it ridged and that plastic is hard to get a cover up to stay on. When ever I make it into a Tandy Leather I will see if they still sell the edgecoat stuff they used to sell. I think I have been saying that for a year. I like the belt but I hate the white insert showing.

I've got 2 of them. They are stiff and carry a holster well. Not real fancy and probably won't last as long as the high-end stuff. Mine are over 2 years old and still going strong, although they are worn/scuffed.
