Nice quality, not perfect, but very good for the money. I also ordered a gun holster especially for the Sam Brown belt, but still haven’t figured out how the h… it’s supposed to be attached to the belt. Some kind of instructions would have been nice.
Good replica, great price for what you get

I ordered long size braces because I'm 6' 3" but this would fit someone 7 feet tall, so I'll have to resize the braces. Decent leather but a bit stiff. The loops on the ends of the straps are difficult to unclasp due to the stiff leather. I bought this as a good value-priced substitute for the U.S. army's M1921 Sam Browne belt, as it's nearly identical except darker in color.

From the research I've done, this set is pretty much identical to the originals and fits very well.
As per previous comments, the braces are very long even for myself (6'1") and will require tailoring, but as it's leather it's easy enough to do and gives me enough room to tailor it exactly.
I'd say if you bought one of the mid-range Sam Browne belts at the time from some of the 1930's sales brochures I've been looking at this is what you'd get, and for the price (and a little bit of T.L.C.), you'll get a top-notch item...
