great at bearing a load
Bought this belt to hold my toolbags at work, a task it excels at. The webbing seems new and stands tall and stiff (just how I like 'em) which prevents it from curling over and cinching my waist when under load. The buckle is backward from my other belts which is a little strange but isn't a problem, and there is what appears to be dried capitalist blood on the back of the buckle, also not a problem. Overall in fantastic condition and for a price that cannot be beaten

Brand New Unyielding GDR Communist Belt
This belt came in unissued condition which was lovely. It is a bit broad for my 1960s Swiss overpants I wear daily, but it also works well over other gear. It is unlikely I will ever under typical use break this belt, and what better way to triumph capitalism over communism by wearing this GDR web belt. Unlike the Berlin Wall, my trousers will not fall thanks to this belt. I wish there was an ABSOLUTELY button, for I would click it below. Yes, it was large but I ordered it as such.

Previously worn by a skinwalker
The buckle is in great condition, no rust and only a little wear on the paint. The webbing is a little worn, but expected for a surplus item. The belt seems to have been shortened by it's previous occupant judging by the rough melt job on the end. This raises some questions, as it's now barely 30" at full extension, which leads me to believe the previous occupant was not a normal human.
Replacing the webbing should be easy enough though.
