Magpul Tejas Gun Belt 2.0 – "El Original" 1.5 inch
Constructed with the same ingenuity and reliability found in their hardware, Magpul's revamped Magpul Tejas Gun Belt – “El Original” can handle the most demanding use and remain great-looking while doing it. It provides gun belt rigidity with dress belt comfort and offers a stretch and sag-free performance.
Updated for 2020, the “El Original” is crafted from 100% North American bull hide. It's sturdy, strong, and and backed by a supporting layer of flexible polymer, making it a rugged piece of gear that provides dress belt comfort. It measures 1-1/2” wide and 1/4” thick, so it will fit most belt loops and holsters comfortably. The “El Original” belt also sports a new easily-removable buckle that's engineered with a sleek profile design that sits flat against the waist and helps reduce printing when you’re carrying.
The Magpul "El Original" comes in even sizes from 32"-44" and in three colors: Black, Chocolate, and Light Brown.
- Full grain outer layer is backed by a supportive but flexible reinforced polymer
- 100% North American bull hide
- Eight holes with 3/4” spacing for a wide, yet precise adjustment range
- 1-1/2” wide and 1/4” thick to fit most belt loops and holsters
- Made in the USA.
*BELT SIZING:
DO NOT order your waist size or pants size! Lay an existing belt out flat and from where the belt folds at the point where the buckle is attached, measure to the hole that you typically use. Please remember when ordering to take into account any holster or accessory that may be worn. For in-between measurements use the next size up as our belts will not stretch over time.
We size our belts from the fold at the buckle to the #5 hole (count the hole from the tip) as per the diagram below.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
While the inner polymer layer of our belt is largely maintenance free, the outer layer will need to be cared for like any other quality leather item.
- Do not roll up your belt unnecessarily tight when not in use
- When putting your belt on, avoid bending it back over the buckle more than 90 degrees when tightening as this may strain the leather and weaken the stitching
- While our belts will not stretch due to the reinforced polymer inner layer, avoid using leather softeners such as Neatsfoot or Mink oil
- If necessary, a quality paste-style leather preservative may be used to maintain the leather surface
- If the surface is ever scratched down to the natural beige leather the appropriate shade of shoe polish will help restore the color
