A humble but necessary part of the East German load bearing system, complete with an embossed, powder-coated DDR buckle.

As a belt for your pants it's absolute overkill. A testament to the soviet way of doing things it's not lightweight or wieldy in any respect of the words but by god it will never let you down.

It's borderline ratchet-strap nylon will keep even the heaviest-loaded boomer cargo shorts as upheld as their guaranteed social security checks that the next generation will never know the taste of. It's buckle although commie-symbol-adorned can be easily hidden if you roll with your shirt untucked.

Alternatively, if you're a crazy person who ACTUALLY wants to use the belt for it's original purpose as a load bearing belt with the combat pack, It's an essential piece that really brings the whole thing together. 

Sizing
To determine your belt size, measure the circumference of your waist. You'll want to choose a belt size that has a maximum size larger than your waist.
