® B13 Universal Size Leather Belt 1½ in
The Bianchi B13 is an everyday carry belt (Leather EDC NexBelt) for carrying a firearm or tools on the belt day to day. According to the manufacturer it can be adjusted one-handed and in very small 1/4" (approx. 6 mm) increments instead of the standard 1" (approx. 25 mm), which is especially useful when putting on or removing an IWB holster. According to the manufacturer one size fits the majority of people up to a 50" (approx. 127 cm) waist; excess material is simply cut off.
Bianchi goes back to John Bianchi, a police officer in Southern California who built his first leather holster in his garage in 1958 so that he could wear it on duty. According to the manufacturer, Bianchi stands for handcrafted workmanship and time-proven, long-lasting designs; the brand's innovations include the thumb snap, the Model 27 "Break Front" holster and the Model X15® shoulder holster. Today Bianchi is part of the Safariland Group.
