I buy cargo shorts and cargo pants from Cabelas. I like the product except the waist band button falls off. Several years ago I ran across these in the Duluth Trading Company catalog: Site Search Results - Duluth Trading
These work great and don't fall off. Just punch a hole where the button was, insert the pointy back side through the hole, place the top over that and whack it with a hammer. Instant button type rivet that is found on most jeans.

Duluth Trading Company has stuff I never knew existed, although somethings can be found at a hardware store for much cheaper.

When I was a kid I had a hand warmer similar to the Zippo hand in this link, it was a Jon E Hand Warmer.

Also in this link was a Streamlight flashlight. I have a Streamlight Strion and recommend to all expediters. It comes with a 12 volt charger. This small light is bright and works even in sub zero temperatures.

Does it come with the holster?

I think a lot of Americans want it cheap. That's proven by where we shop.

I got one of these made in USA belts for Christmas. It's the same belt I've worn for the last 10 years. That belt has at least that much more life left in it but unfortunately I had to get one size larger.
