This is a unique piece of history that was made so well it is still very usable. The belt itself is 44″ long, 1.5″ wide at the belt, and 5 wide at the bag part. There are five 5 pouches that close with a leather strap and steel ball closure. The pouches fold out like a paper bag when full. The belt buckle and closure hook are made of brass, as is the spring coded hook. There are two steel loops on the top that each are sown slightly sideways towards a persons sides. This belt is made of thick patterned leather and sturdy heavy stitches. This belt was made with true craftsmanship.
