Savotta G-hook trouser belt, 70-80 cm

Description

Webbing: 100% polyester
Buckles: steel

This belt started out as a ”let’s make ourselves a couple of trouser belts for comfortable wear under pack hip belts when doing stuff at work” sort of thing. After a few years of in-house use we decided that this is probably something people would like to buy from us. So here we are, a decent trouser belt à la Savotta.

Adjustments are done using the steel G-hook. The excess length 25 mm webbing can be neatly tucked away behind the belt through the D-ring. The D-ring allows the front of the belt to articulate to conform to your body shape and movement. The non-obtrusive design and construction make these comfortable for wear under backpack hip belts and combat belts.

Sizing

The main body of the belt, made from 40 mm (1,75”) webbing is non-adjustable. The adjustable section, 25 mm (1”) webbing with the G-hook, is attached to a D-ring.

The nominal size is the minimum to maximum adjustment range of each belt size. There is about 10 cm extra adjustment range beyond the nominal maximum size, but when adjusted beyond the nominal maximum size the 25 mm webbing end will no longer be long enough to be tucked away through the D-ring.

If your measured circumference where you wear your trousers is say exactly 90 cm you are ”in between sizes”. You could in this case choose either the 80-90 cm size, resulting in the adjustable 25 mm webbing piece being ~10 long when worn. Or you could choose the 90-100 cm size, resulting in the adjustable 25 mm webbing piece being tightened down as short as possible when worn.
