A belt is one of the most fundamental items in a soldier’s kit. It defines whether they are on or off duty, and so I like to think that a belt both philosophically and physically defines how a soldier carries weight. As such, it behooves you to ensure that you have a belt that, much like a soldier, looks and acts smart when it is required. This guide, assembled in partnership with the 191st Rifle Division of Toronto, ON, will attempt to teach you how to fabricate your own belt.
