US Enlisted Trouser Belt

The belt webbing is made from OD #3 material. The buckle is typically made of steel, though some belts ship with a brass buckle. The belt tip is made of a heavy material. The webbing is thick and rough.

The belt webbing is made in OD #3, as was typically made in 1942-43. The buckle style is correct for a WWII belt, specifically resembling late-war buckles. The overall appearance of the belt is very close to those issued in 1956. Some belts ship with a blackened buckle, while others have a brass buckle.

You should specify your waist size when ordering. The belts are cut to order, 6 inches longer than your specified waist size. Do not send the length you expect the belt to be, but rather your actual waist size. Your jean size is not your natural waist size, so measure your natural waist.

The canvas webbing is thick and rough. It is nicely woven, and the weave looks very close to original belts. The colour goes through the belt, without the white threads in the middle that some reproductions have. The webbing is a heavy grade canvas.

The buckle is made of steel and is described as heavy duty. The paint on the buckle is thick, though it can chip. The belt tip is made of a heavy material that tolerates being crimped and uncrimped multiple times.

The buckle is the correct style for the period and is described as almost exactly like late-war buckles. Some belts ship with a blackened buckle, while others have a brass buckle. Other reproduction belts often use incorrect buckle styles, such as Chinese copies of Vietnam War field buckles.
