Approximate Sizing Guide
A published surplus-dealer fitting guide lists approximately 28–36 inches for Small and 38–46 inches for Medium. These are general fitting references, not individually measured adjustment ranges for every belt in this lot.
The belts are intended for wear over clothing. Fit depends on the wearer's belt-line circumference, clothing layers, placement and strap adjustment. Do not rely on a civilian pants size alone. Belt-body length and buckled waist circumference are different measurements.
Military Background
The USMC Sub-Belt was developed as a padded, modular replacement for the older cartridge belt. It provides a hip-worn platform for compatible pouches and can be used with or without body armor. Marine Corps product information dated March 2015 recorded Sub-Belt fielding as complete. This is background on the equipment type, not a manufacture or issue date for these individual belts.
Shipping
Ships from Hawaii via USPS Ground Advantage. Shipping is calculated using the final packed weight, dimensions and destination. All 11 belts and the single attached harness are included in this lot's shipment.
The belts will be folded and securely boxed, with the buckles protected for shipment. Delivery timing depends on the carrier and destination.
