Looking for Special Type of Money Belt

I am looking for a black leather money belt with a single loop for a belt.
The belt fits thru the loop and it fits down inside your pants.
This money belt is 4 x 6 1/2 inches with a zipper on both sides.
I have this money belt but one of the zippers came off and the loop has broken.
I have had this money belt several years and forgot where I bought it.
I like it very much and hope to be able to replace it.
I am only interested in this money belt.
I have all the other types of money belts and like this one the best.

I cannot help you with your money belt but have an awesome story regarding one...
I was in NY and my children found a black leather money belt with a zipper across most of the back in a thrift store.
They were 2 "old style" one hundred dollar bills. They had never seen this style bill before and believed them to be fake. They took these bills and left the belt to show me. I explained they were real. We went back and purchased the belt just to make the transaction honest. Don't you know there was another one hundred dollar bill inside! I have used the belt since then to travel to Europe and bills have gotten "lost" inside for me--finding it very difficult to retrieve--now I know how that money was left in side so many years ago!

Not leather, but there is an Eagle Creek Undercover Hidden Pocket which is similar. Check www.eaglecreek.com.

Thanks everbody.
I have looked in Magellen, LL Bean, EagleCreek and TravelSmith.
I cannot find it there.

Jean, that money belt is close to what I have. That one has 2 zippers on one side. Mine has a single zipper on each side. This is a good option if I cannot find the type that I have. It looks very close to what I have.

Since it's made of leather you might be able to get it repaired at a shoe repair shop.
