British Canadian Under the Tunic Officer’s Sword Belt 39″

The British Canadian Under the Tunic Officer’s Sword Belt is a historical military accessory designed for wear beneath the uniform tunic. Measuring approximately 39 inches in length, this belt was used by officers in British Canadian forces, typically during the late 19th or early 20th centuries. Made from sturdy leather, it features a series of adjustable buckle fittings, allowing for a secure and comfortable fit under an officer’s service dress. The construction and materials were intended to support the weight of a standard officer’s sword and scabbard while ensuring a neat, unobtrusive appearance when worn. Brass or plated metal components are commonly seen, consistent with period regulation military equipment. Such belts were an important element of the officer’s uniform, ensuring the sword was properly positioned without disrupting the silhouette of the tunic. This item reflects the standards and practices of British Canadian military dress regulations of the era.
