Simple adapters lets holster ride lower on belt
on: June 11, 2008, 05:48:31 AM
Holsters that ride high on my belt poke me in the midsection.  I devised simple ways which permit such holsters to ride lower on my belt.

I posted a few articles about this on edcforums.com and thought multitool owners would find them useful.

One way is to use a paracord loop through the case belt loop and around my belt.

Another scheme involves using a section of bicycle inner tube fastened to a SOG Powerlock case's original belt loop by a plastic cable tie.  I slide my belt through the inner tube section which flattens out against my belt.

I tend to avoid belt pouches for the same reason. I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the idea.
