The Austrian canvas uniform belt is based off the slide lock "boy scout" belt mechanism known and loved the world over. Years ago, when they were more plentiful, we sold these by the hundreds. Now, they're a little harder to find.
All belts have a metallic OD finish that will wear over time revealing a brass or nickel-colored base metal. This process is shown in the three-belt comparison photo.
Sizing
Sizing canvas belts is very forgiving. For a good reference, measure a belt you wear and like and buy the nearest size available. Canvas belts can always be trimmed down, so when in doubt round up.
Perfect fit,perfect width,handsome buckle.The Austrian Eagle Belt/Buckle will complement your military attire,ditto your mufti attire.Two thumbs UP!
This has to be one of my favorite surplus products. I can't wait for them to get more and order another. Go for the largest size. I am 6' 155 pounds and the medium fits me, however I could definitely live with having more wiggle room. Good news is the buckles can be detached and put on another canvas strap which is a great feature if you buy this and it doesn't fit right. Really cool belt, quite stylish if you as me. Goes great with black jeans
with its metal slip clip to secure the belt together, this one can be a tad tricky for the first few times. BUT, between its striking metal and dark canvas belt, it's worth it.
Belt locks up nicely and will keep your pants where they need to be. Austrians know how to make good products and this belt is no exception. My recommendation, measure your waist before your order, don't go by your pants size.
It's a nice belt with strong materials and the clasp is easy to use.
