Fuck that betraying sonofabitch. This isn't 'competition'. It's betrayal. May they live to regret it.
For a belt, I use this one, it has holes all the way around it. I just chop off the tail when it gets too long. I am sick of buying pants though. The first couple of times I bought smaller pants it was fun, now it's just annoying.
I have this belt and I have had it for about 10 years. Been a lifesaver!
I really want to buy all of these, someone help me narrow it down please. for a little info i will be a freshman in college next year in a rainy but not overly cold climate. thanks for any help!

I got a belt that has holes all the way to the buckle.
Hmm very interesting - was not aware of that.
Maybe try this? http://www.amazon.com/Metal-Travel-Small-32-34-Black/dp/B002474MCO

About 8 years ago I made my own leather harness, thinking I would save some money, but it still was pretty expensive. I kind of "hacked" one together, using bondage-style belts. The length of the belts, and how many belts, O-rings and screws you will need, will vary depending on your design. Be sure to design it on paper, so you can figure out what quantities of each component will be needed.
Tools:
Materials:
A. Dickies "bondage style" belts.
These have two rows of holes that run the entire length. Plus they are black leather. They are available on Amazon, and look like this:
Amazon Dickies Belts
They seem kind of expensive on Amazon. I got mine on clearance from Wal-Mart, for around $5.00 each (again, about 8 years ago). For my "full body harness," I purchased 12 belts of varying lengths. Eight for my torso, one for my crotch, and two for my shoulders. The last belt was cut up to make vertical connectors between the O rings. Obviously fewer belts would be needed for a chest harness.
What I did was cut the leather about 3 - 4 inches back from the buckle, and this would be connected to an O-ring. I then measured, and cut the remaining belt remnant to connect to another O-ring. When I cut the other part of the belts, I made sure to retain the front edges of the belts because they already had a nicely finished edge (hope this makes sense). I allowed a few extra inches leeway when folded over the O-ring, in case I wanted to adjust them. When I cut the leather with the box cutter, I kind of "shaved" off the exposed edge that would be pressing into my skin (be careful when cutting leather!).
B. 2" diameter welded steel "O" rings. I got mine from either Home Depot or Lowes at the time. On Amazon, they look like this:
Amazon 2" O rings
How many you will need will depend on your design. Also, if you have male genitalia, you might want to add an extra "O" ring that will be a cock ring (when you size the ring, get a more specific size that will fit, and allow some space for the leather belt material that will be going around it from above and below). If you have female genitalia, you might add a dildo-holder. I myself didn't add this, but you might research options.
C. Chicago style screws.
On Amazon, they look like this:
Amazon Chicago screws
What I like about these is that they can be screwed together and then taken apart for adjusting the leather length. There are many sizes and several different styles. Search around on Amazon. The length of the post is important. They will go through the belt holes, and fasten the belt once folded over on itself, when connected to the O rings. I found some at a hardware store to test, and then I ordered a bunch online. Sorry I can't remember the exact length, but you will want them to screw together and pinch the leather tightly. They are easy to fasten / unfasten with an appropriately sized screwdriver. Once I did my test-fitting was satisfied with the length of the straps, I added a dab of loctite to keep the screws from un-screwing (they can wiggle loose during constant use, taking the harness on and off, etc.).
Another option is to add a butt-plug holder. I didn't add one to mine, but you might shop around for what might work.
A couple tips: A trick I learned to protect the leather going up my crotch and backside (i.e. like a thong) is that I cut off the end of a non-lubricated condom, roll it out, and slide it on. This helps protect the leather a bit. However if you don't do this, and the leather gets dirty, it is easy enough to unscrew the chicago screws, clean the leather and re-attach. I've also bypassed the leather crotch strap, and instead tied two pieces of black disposable rope in between the two O-rings where the leather crotch strap would normally be (two pieces of rope, so that they could go on either side of my genitalia, and then run up parallel up my butt crack). This makes it easy to avoid having to deal with leather that has been on my "wet areas."
Because I was able to score a bunch of belts for cheap, mine wasn't too expensive. But if you add all the costs for belts at Amazon's current prices, plus the other hardware, it is going to add up fast, possibly to the point where it might be more worthwhile to have a leather worker make a custom one for you.
If you make one, please share a pic!
Edit: formatting - gah!
Edit #2: I probably actually used 3" O-rings, to allow room for up to four and five connections of the leather belts for the O rings that will be along the torso. Most of the torso rings had 4 straps connecting to them, but the Upper chest and upper back rings had five (because of the shoulder straps). I can't remember, and I would need to find my harness to double check. The connections with five straps was tight; 4" rings might be a better option if you want to see a bit of the rings in contrast with the black leather. Recommend doing a test with an O ring from your local hardware store before buying them in quantity online.
Edit #3. The harness I made was a simple design, but "heavy" and iconic-looking. I couldn't quite find an example on Etsy, and they were looking more like "fashion harnesses" with skinnier straps, and fancier designs. Mine looks similar to the one made by this redditor:
reddit post by another person who made a harness for his girlfriend
Here is the image of the harness he made. Mine looks very similar, except mine has a fourth torso wrap, two rows of holes running the full length of the straps, and a crotch strap (which I rarely use, and instead use two pieces of rope to connect). I think my O rings might have been slightly smaller, but were sized for the Dickies belts I used. I love this particular look:

Carhartt Anvil. Solid and not terribly expensive. No wait, either.
Shirt Stay Belt?
It looks like those belts would fit the bill.
The images aren't showing up on that site for me right now, but rest assured I'll be checking out the rest of their belts. I've always been partial to black belts, This one looks like it would be perfect, but I just want to see what else they carry, y'know?
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, this is a HUGE help!

I still go with black or brown. My favorite belt is this color, but I also use medium brown and black belts.
You could do grey or red canvas belts easily, I just don't have any.
I do also have a set of black/dark brown/light brown dress belts, which might be overkill for some, but I really like the dull casual leather look.

You're wearing improperly fitted shirts.
First, get properly fitted, tailored shirts. Your shirts are pulling up and out because your arm scythes (arm holes) are too large, thus when you reach around, your shirt keeps pulling. With a smaller arm hole, the the movement stays in the arms and doesn't pull the body of the shirt around.
Also, your sleeves are probably too short. Your shirt sleeve should come to rest at the base of your thumb by way of a properly sized cuff, NOT on the length of fabric from the shoulder seam. Adjusting the cuff size is as simple as moving a button. If you buy off the rack consistently, try a sleeve length one or two steps longer than your current one, and move the button on the cuff to adjust the tightness so it rests at the bottom of your thumb. When you put your hand all the way out to reach, the cuff should not come up your forearm where it catches and pulls out of your pants.
The size of the arm hole and length of sleeve will isolate the movement to the arms and not affect the body of the shirt. The adjustment of the cuff allows for it to still look proper at rest so the sleeves aren't falling over your hands.
Custom shirts can be had on a website like ModernTailor.com or ProperCloth.com for as much as you'll pay in the store for an off the rack version ($40-60).
Also, take your current shirts to a tailor (this is one of the few times you can use the lady at your dry cleaners for tailoring) and have the body taken in if you want them tighter to the body. Remember that too tight will make things worse. You need some slack for movement.
You should also have a strip of rubber sewn into the waistband of your pants. That, along with properly fitting shirts, will help your shirts stay tucked even with great reach.
This product may also be an option for you:
http://smile.amazon.com/Shirt-Lock-1-X40-Keeper/dp/B003PKWV5O
Lastly, a dress shirt, regardless of cost, is NEVER BIFL. A QUALITY shirt will last approximately 50-70 commercial launderings.
Hope this helps. Good luck!!
Honestly I found a 2 pack on amazon for these cheap nylon belts.. they actually work pretty well! Easy on the wallet and works when you gain/lose weight.

Ive been using this one as a dress belt for a while:

Looks nice and has been holding up...though I only wear it once or twice a week.
Not specifically a carry belt, but this works great for me and looks good.

Show this gift some love.
I know its just a belt, but damnit my pants need love too!!!!!
Momma didn't raise no fool. Done, done, and done. Something.
This is ~$100 over budget, but here are my recommendations:
Shoes ($50)
Socks ($5)
Suit ($180)
Belt ($22)
Shirt+Tie ($40)
Just a head's up, if you have Prime, they are available on Amazon.
Amazon has this, and Google found these guys, who will sell you a belt with a metal-free buckle, or just sell you the buckle. You could take the buckle and your favorite belt to a cobbler and have it installed.
I suggest you google "SMBus" and "Smart Battery". It's not DRM, it's battery-management which was devised for maximizing battery performance and life back when laptops ran Windows 3.1 and the new batteries were NiMH -- EEPROM records of charge/discharge cycles, and voltage and embedded thermistor temperature monitoring during charging. SMBus is a protocol based on I2C, so you'll want to study that too if you're new to it.
Just googling "smart battery milwaukee" brought up this link, showing that Milwaukee uses the technology: https://www.amazon.com/Battery-Adapter-Milwaukee-Compatible-Batteries/dp/B0015S8RBA

Been real happy with this Carhartt belt, full grain leather

Carhartt Anvil
I got mine about 6 months before I got my CHL in 2013. I wear it every day and it still looks practically new. Full grain, rock solid, and strong enough to take the abuse of holding a loaded Glock 19 or Colt 1991 Commander OWB no problem.
