At Black Swamp Leather Company LLC, every piece of gear we make—from gun belts to holsters—is built by hand, with purpose. We’re not a factory. We don’t mass-produce. We craft rugged, dependable leather gear that’s meant to serve those who carry every day—because we live that life, too.

When it comes to concealed carry, most folks focus on the firearm, the holster, and maybe a spare mag or two. But there’s one piece of gear that often gets overlooked—and it’s just as critical as the weapon you carry. That’s your gun belt. At Black Swamp Leather Company LLC, we don’t cut corners. Our Double Thick, Double Stitched Gun Belt is built from the ground up to handle the weight and demands of everyday carry. Let’s take a closer look at what makes this belt different, and why it should be the foundation of your concealed carry setup.

As concealed carry continues to gain ground across the U.S., states are actively updating their laws to address training standards, permit procedures, and public safety concerns. For responsible gun owners, adapting to these legislative changes isn't just a legal necessity—it's a matter of readiness and personal responsibility. One notable example of this shift is Colorado's new concealed carry law set to take effect on July 1, 2025, which is already creating ripples among the concealed carry community.

Concealed carry is more than just choosing the right holster or firearm—it’s about being a responsible, law-abiding citizen. One of the most important aspects of that responsibility is staying up to date with local, state, and federal laws. In today’s shifting political and legal landscape, concealed carriers need to be informed and proactive to remain compliant and protect their rights.

When it comes to everyday carry (EDC), selecting the right firearm is a critical decision that directly impacts comfort, concealability, and personal security. Today’s concealed carriers overwhelmingly favor compact handguns that strike the perfect balance between size, capacity, and reliability. The goal is simple: choose a firearm that's easy to conceal yet powerful and dependable enough to perform under pressure.
