Best belt system ever!
December 10, 2021

I now have 4 kore belts and buckles and just bought their new titanium buckle and full grain leather belt combo that is by far my favorite! The leather is smooth and supple and glides through the belt loops and easily tucks under the loop after buckling. Of course the best feature is the 1/4" ratchet, allowing tiny positive adjustments and immediate release when needed. It's a great belt and buckle system!

I've been carrying a pistol for over 30 years. I've always had leather belts and tried a few "gun" belts. Always just hype. These kore "gun" belts are the absolute best I've ever owned. I love the way you can make minor adjustments for comfort.

Happy
December 2, 2020

I have been wearing Kore's X5 tactical for a year now. Still has its Original shape with Zero malfunctions. The buckle works perfectly, but sure got ugly. My job requires me to crawl over gravel, concrete and wedge between steel. So it is expected that it would get scratched up. I was hoping Kore Essentials would make a wider 1-3/4" belt to fit my clips better. Then they released the Garrison that I just got and its equally awesome.

Five star
October 18, 2018

I've dealt with Kore several times since 2013 and own 3 of the their fashion track belts. I have to say they're belts are fantastic I never wear my old belts with holes anymore. Why would you? Kore means great quality leather, awesome stainless steel buckles (my favorite) and their track is really long and very adjustable and so it fits my fluctuating waist perfectly. I can say this will say this because I've owned 2 other ratchet belt brands but they didn't hold up. One used cheap leather and it came apart. And the buckle broke with the other one. But my Kore puts out quality stuff. When I've called in to ask questions their cs guy Danny was super nice and always took care of me. It's a standup company

The products and service is above and beyond with Kore. I now have 3 gun belts of different colors and am very pleased with the quality and strength of these belts. The buckles are very well made and work perfectly. Above all, the personal service I received over the phone and email with the Kore Essentials team is outstanding to say the least. I will absolutely order another belt and buckle for myself.

Game Changer!
January 22, 2022

I was recommended these belts by my brother who has been using them for awhile now. He said they are without a doubt the best, and he wasn't lying! I carry appendix with a spare mag and the ability to be walking with it snug against me and then sit and with a quick flick of the switch loosen the belt is amazing. Then stand and slide it snug again without even lifting my shirt and possibly exposing my rig. Super comfortable and looks great. Belt and buckle are high quality, honestly didn't expect this quality for the price. I will definitely be ordering many more.

These Kore belts are insane! The buckle and ratchet mechanism is insanely intuitive and easy to use. They're amazingly rigid and just exactly what you need in an EDC belt. I wear it everyday. Concealing a G19 and it feels like the firearm is floating with the belt. Other belts you feel the weight of the firearm and a slight sag, this thing doesn't do any of that. You can loop it through your pants and practically stand your pants up on their own. Amazing design. Awesome product. Great customer service. I can't say enough about this belt. I recommend it to everyone I know and anyone on the fence about buying it, you can't go wrong with this company.

Great belt for EDC
October 28, 2021

Kore makes a solid belt. Honestly I'm impressed by how durable these belts feel. Very stiff and perfect for use with a holster. The ratcheting system on the buckle is very secure and easy to release when needed.

Happy Kore customer
January 5, 2021

I wanted to let everyone know how thrilled I was with Kore service! I bought their belts and got them fast; they were well protected in packaging, and were in perfect condition! Instructions were clear and everything went as you predicted on the cuts and adjustments. I am officially a happy customer and will tell everyone I know about them. Great company and great products.

Love this Belt!
July 8, 2020

Very welI made belt, easy to set up. Very stylish for a carry device. I do wish it was a bit thicker but for leather, but otherwise it's great. Stable for my draws and really like the ratchet system. Overall a great choice if you want to go leather over Nylon- probably the best one on the market as I've tried a few. Great customer support too.

This company Rocks
January 16, 2019

This company rocks. I bought four belts and two buckles. Then purchased two more buckles. I frequently recommend Kore Essentials belts for dress and gun carry. Customer service is knowledgeable and easy to work with you made this purchase one of the easiest I've had in years thanks again. I will purchase more belts in 2019.

Kore makes an awesome belt. Very rigid yet easy to cut to fit. These belts are great for everyday wear and classy enough for black tie affairs. Very fast shipping, its an excellent product and company.

Kore Essentials
September 1, 2020

I have been hunting for a good belt for awhile and finally bought one of there gun belts. When I got it today it was literally a 2 minute setup and the quality was outstanding. The buckle was sturdy and not flimsy and has a great look. Just running my hands over the belt felt great. I thought that maybe since I had a gut that it would release the ratchet but it didn't. And it held up my Smith and Wesson 9mm perfectly with no sag. This is solid product and company.

Nice belt
July 11, 2021

My kore essentials belt just showed up today and I'm thoroughly impressed thus far. I could've worn it without cutting any off, but took about 4 inches off the belt which leaves me room for my carry weapon of choice and then some. Buckle installation was simple and straight forward. Just remember to fold the teeth clamp down before tightening the screws as the belt needs to move a little bit for the teeth clamp to seat. Other than that. I never want to deal with holes in my belt again. Honestly this is one of the nicest belts I've ever owned, and that includes a gun belt from another company that was a little too large for me. If I were to loose this belt I would probably buy another. I think even if I weren't going to carry, I'm spoiled by this belt. But if I am going to carry. This belt has me covered.

Love This Belt!
July 21, 2019

I purchased a belt from Kore for my husband. He loves the fact that he can adjust it to fit perfectly. He wears it all the time, with or without a gun, and he loves it. We were worried it would be too stiff for everyday wear, but it is very comfortable. And it does a great job of keeping his gun close to his body.

Very pleased
February 28, 2019

First, let me say that I love the fit and function of these Kore belts. They are amazing. But I had an issue with my original order and I wasn't sure if I had done something wrong, or what had happened. So I contacted Kore and explained my issue and without so much as blinking an eye they shipped me a replacement and sent a short note saying so. It was fantastic customer service AND it's a great product. I will buy again.

Best gun belt ever!
December 19, 2021

They make the best belts ever. I have now purchased a total of 3 Kore belts and buckles. Easy to size, great fit and superior quality. The ratchet system is the best feature, very easy to adjust. I don't normally review stuff but had to for this.

Great!
July 15, 2019

Kore makes great products. I've ordered 4 times from Kore and the belts are very solid and well made and very adjustable. I've not had the belts long enough to judge durability but by their appearance I'd say they should last a long time

Kore are the only EDC belts I would trust. I have 4 of the gun belts and then decided I wanted two more softer regular belts for days I can't carry. Best idea ever. The comfort, simplicity, and strength of the gun belts and the comfort and perfect amount of rigidity on the classic belts can't be beaten.
