I tried an instructor belt and here is why I couldn't use it.

I thought it would work like a regularly constructed belt in the way you tighten it. It does not.

If you put it on normally from left to right or counterclockwise, you then thread it through the buckle and back to the right upon itself and fasten the velcro.

Pulling it tight to the right and fastening it along itself to the right did not work for me. If I wanted to pull it tight and fasten it to the left I would have to thread it clockwise which is opposite for me. This also requires the holster if on the right to be toward the wrong end of the belt.

The velcro part fastened back on itself had to go over the belt loops and got in the way of the holster.

I was disappointed. I think I'm the only one I've ever heard of that has had problems with it.

It IS a well-made piece of equipment.

You are not the only one...it is for this exact reason I sold the one instructor belt I tried. I didn't like the way I had to put it on with a holster to make it work.
