I perfer the Riggers belt its wider so it's more comfortable then the issue belt, which I haven't worn since Basic but I still remember what it was like. but as always it comes down to personal preference. Try both and see what you like. I have also seen some guys wearing civi wide brown leather belts they say they like them best. but I'll leave it up to you.
I bought one being a young and dumb recruit but it came in handy (finally) during the summer. Used it to hang my canteen off my belt w/ the help of a large biner. Used the lil "rigging" loop thing. Other than that, any normal civie belt'll do.
As said before with regards to LCF, there is no real purpose to it.

Riggers belts are great for field wear.
The riggers belts are stiffer and wider then a regular pants belt. This makes it more comfortable to wear with drop leg platforms or extra pouches. If your going to use a riggers belt dont go cheap, I use a spec ops brand OD riggers belt with a pair of High speed Gear HSLD suspenders.

I'm pretty sure the new belt will just be OD. I bought the cadpat one form peacekeepers, with the A7A buckle on it, what a great belt, locks down tight when hungry, but can expand after a real good meal. JK, fits over every pair of pants, even the skidoo pants when on top of the wind pants.

I wear one, Blackhawk, not the cheap CP one that's not milspec.
1. More comfortable than other belts
2. Easier to use than the CF one
3. Doesn't have a nice shiney brass buckle
4. Can be used for emergency rappelling
5. Can be used for saftey (clipping onto a chopper, or tree stand ;D )
6. Holds drop leg pouches and sheaths better than other belts
7. Not affected by the weather like leather
Would I hang a canteen off it like said above, Yeah that would be nice when hitting the ground :crybaby:

I also purchased an OD riggers belt from CP. It's a very comfortable belt but the riggers part really does nothing for me since the one from CP is not rated for repelling, belaying etc. guess it's a look thing. Given a second chance i would have skipped the d ring part and just gone with the heavy duty buckle.
