The best belts I have found are from ostomycares.com. They are nylon and lycra, very comfortable, and just slip on. The is a pocket for your pouch and you don't have to wear your pouch sideways like a lot of belts. It gives you a lot of support without a lot a complexity or having to change how you wear your pouch. The are out of Quebec so you get two confirmation emails, one in French and one in English.

The ostomy belt arrived today, that was very fast shipping! Left positive feedback with eBay.
Thank You very much for making and selling these ostomy belts. It's really helped my father. He hasn't had a detached pouch since wearing your belt, and can go to the bathroom unaided. A real confidence and moral booster.
Best Wishes for 2011,

It’s Bridget sending you a note to let you know that I received the ostomy belts and ostomy underwear as requested. The belts are working out perfectly - many thanks for sending the extra one along. I also want to thank you for taking the time out to ensure that the products I requested would suit my needs. The conversation and follow up was much appreciated.
I will definitely be recommending your ostomy products to people I encounter.
All the very best with your business. I'm sure we'll be in touch.
Warm regards,

I had to undergo a first operation in May 2007 (abscesses drainage caused by a fistula). Despite a close medical follow-up and taking medication (cortisone and purénéthol), an emergency operation took place June 24 for a removal of one part of the small intestine and colon. Which ended with a temporary ileostomy from June 24 to September 14 2007.
On my return home on July 2, 2007, my sisters gave me gift of the short skirt and I also received the ostomy belt (in net) from my godfather and his wife. WOW! What a wonder!!! To have lived it, I do say and I repeat that to be able to live with assistance of a ostomy belt has helped me to live 75% better and helped me to accept this position that in my case was only temporary. As much as for the discomfort and the insecurity that one lives in such a position in that of the acceptance, this is a beautiful true invention.
In any case, I did some research for these ostomy belts because I did not know of its existence. Strange thing... Nobody in the medical field whom I deal with knew of this invention: nurses, gastro-enterologist, my surgeon, my family doctor, the nurse at the pharmacy, as well as the participants of the CLSC of my region. Nevertheless everybody living with a temporary or permanent ostomy should be informed of its existence.
Since September 14, 2007, I no longer have ostomy but I continue to inform the people of my entourage of this beautiful magnificent invention.

I have two protective ostomy belts, one ostomy skirt now and wear the belts all of the time (night & day). They are so easy to wash and dry quickly so I never have to worry about having a clean one. I am so very pleased, it is just like getting some of my life back.
They are very comfortable and I now have this feeling of security that I never expected possible after the last 5 1/2 years of fear of someone finding out that I have this problem. Going to public washrooms was an anxiety filled experience as the plastic pouch always makes a noise no matter what you do, but with this belt, the pouch is always enclosed and the problem is gone.
I am very pleased with the Protective Ostomy Belt and would highly recommend it.

I am a 31 year old woman. Being reached Crohn disease for already 7 years, I had not had of major repetition from the diagnosis. to this year! I unfortunately lived a relapse of an intensity out of the commun run which finally led me in operating room for the complete ablation of the colonist. I thus have now with a ileostomy.
Obviously, it was difficult to accept, I never thought that it can arrive to me one day! I had to learn how to live with the bag, the day like the night and especially to find me means of camouflaging it. Initially, I had problems the night with the bag because it inflated much, I were always afraid to hang it in my sleep. While seeking on Internet, given to find a solution, I found the Protective Ostomy Belt. Wow! I wanted some immediately! Indeed, the belt is ideal for the night, because it support well the bag and makes it possible to move without fear while sleeping.
Moreover, it is ideal the day because it can be carried with any clothing, which makes it possible to support and hide the bag to the maximum. Finally, the belt is also very interesting for the reports/ratios intimate. Even if my spouse accepts my new state very well, the belt is ideal to hide the bag and to prevent it from moving. In short, that advantages!! I use the belt in net for the night because it allows more expansion, and that will lycra some for the day which is camouflaged well under clothing.
Moreover, the little skirt is really extra! The eyes of my spouse said some large when I tested it the first time! It is super beautiful and camouflages the bag really well. Being all the same rather short, it gives a sexy pace, completely making forget the bag! I am in a hurry at the summer to be made bronze!

10 years ago my doctors detected an ulcerous colitis but, after going through many tests I was finally diagnosed with Crohn’s disease. I unsuccessfully went through several operations for 8 years trying to keep my physical integrity and at age 41.I brought myself to accept having a stoma placement. It was a hard decision, especially towards others because I always had the feeling that the pouch was noticeable even under clothing,
I was embarrassed at work and distressed in my intimacy. I turned to ostomates to ask about a belt able to maintain and cover the pouch under clothing so I could gain back some confidence and have more liberty in my movements, like at work. I didn’t find any product in France that gave me a full satisfaction.
Looking in the net, through Google, I discover your web site. I made a first order just for a test and your belts ended corresponding exactly to what I was looking for in a long time: freedom of movements and great support in everyday life and intimacy, I can even forget from time to time that I carry an ostomy pouch which is important for my morale and well-being.
Otherwise I am completely satisfied with the service and order tracking, Florian first concern is that his customer’s expectations are met and for that I thank him sincerely.

Hello,
I am writing to you to let you know that, after buying a first ostomy belt, a while ago, through your Internet site, and after being completely satisfied of your product, I have just ordered a second one.

Hello Mr. Levesque. I would like to thank you for your information about the ostomy belts. The white elastic belt allows the pouch to be secure during our movements when we sleep while the protective ostomy belt holds the pouch and keeps it in place thanks to its support pocket. What a great invention! Thanks to these products we can finally do anything and be safe. Thank you.

Your ostomy belt has been carefully developed and it is useful in many ways. Congratulations! It is worth knowing. A lot of thought was put into the design of your new ostomy underwear and they meet various needs. The two pouch pockets make it very pleasant and comfortable to wear.
I also want to mention the excellence and speed of your service. It`s not always the case in today`s world.
Congratulations for your devotion and for your designs, which deserve to be known everywhere.
