waistbelt
Hip-level fabric strap
A waistbelt is a belt worn around the waist, typically to secure clothing or carry equipment.
The term is most common in military and tactical contexts, where a waistbelt supports holsters, pouches, or other gear: The soldier adjusted his waistbelt before the march.
In everyday use, simply "belt" is more common.
