Soldier's waist cinch
A military belt is a belt designed for use with military uniforms or tactical gear.
Standard-issue belts hold up trousers and may support a holster or canteen.
Load-bearing belts distribute the weight of attached equipment—ammunition pouches, first aid kits, radio holders.
The term also covers the wide, stiff dress belts worn with formal military uniforms, often featuring decorative buckles with unit insignia.
