If you use a belt with your Hollister 2 piece, you will know that the belt rolls up and becomes very uncomfortable. To fix this, I have put the Hollister clip at the end of the belt onto a Coloplast belt. It's only a 15-minute job to cut the Hollister clip from the Hollister belt and then sew it onto a Coloplast belt as shown in the photo.

Hi Iggie,

That's interesting... my Hollister belt doesn't roll up like you mentioned. Are you wearing it too tight? I mean, its real purpose is to take the weight of the bag off the flange, not to hold your barrier against your body. But it is fun to mix and match stuff from vendors to get what works best for you. Pretty cool!

You do what is necessary. I too have not had rare problems with the Hollister Belt, but they were transient. I loosen the belt and place it either under pants or an undershirt under the belt.
