Belt, Waist

Leather waist belt with buckle; universal for suspending pouches, tools, and weapons.

A length of leather cut to wrap around the waist and fastened with a buckle of iron or bronze. Waist-belts are universal among all classes and occupations for suspending pouches, tools, weapons, and other worn gear. Dyed leather adds some distinction; darker hues are favored by working folk, while brighter or tooled leather marks wealthier owners.
